Matthew Shepard was a young gay man who was brutally beaten, tortured, and left to die in Wyoming in October 1998. He was found tied to a fence and unconscious, and was taken to a hospital, where he remained in a coma for several days before he passed away due to his injuries.

In Part 1, Saadia and Asad talk about the different theories about what happened to him the night he was murdered.
