Can justice truly be served when a life is taken and a decade is all that's given? Curtis Allen Holliday's case casts a stark shadow on the complexities of our legal system.

The courtroom drama unfolded this week as jury selection was slated to commence on Monday morning, but the proceedings took an unexpected turn. Instead of facing a trial, Curtis Allen Holliday opted to plead, bringing an end to a case that has haunted Harris County for four years. The charges stemmed from the death of his wife, Chi Thi Lien Le, who was reported missing on April 3, 2020. The ensuing investigation led to a grim discovery: Le's remains were found inside a freezer at Holliday's business located on the 5800 block of West Sam Houston Parkway North.
