ANNABETH PROSECUTES THE FORMERLY SECRET EX-HUSBAND OF A WOMAN WHO IS FOUND RAPED AND MURDERED ON HER WEDDING DAY, ON &quot;CLOSE TO HOME,&quot; FRIDAY, APRIL 28 <br />

"Sex, Toys and Videotape" -- During a murder trial Annabeth discovers that the victim, who was strangled the night before her wedding to another man, was hiding a secret from her friends and family which may have led to her murder, on CLOSE TO HOME, Friday, April 28 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Erica Shelton & Lindsay Jewett Sturman wrote the episode which was directed by Lewis H. Gould.

Annabeth learns that the seemingly straight-laced victim had never disclosed her previous marriage to her family or fiancé, who believed her to be a virgin. Although bruises and cuts on the victim seem to indicate that a rape occurred, the defense tries to maintain that the victim engaged in consensual sex with her ex-husband.
