In 2007, 36-year-old Hugues De La Plaza, a sound engineer with dual U.S. and France citizenship was found mysteriously dead inside his locked San Francisco apartment. Security cameras outside his apartment don’t show anyone else coming or leaving from the apartment and the forensic evidence lead the police to explore the possibility Hugues committed suicide. However, Hugues’ family strongly disagrees and point to mysterious evidence that suggests he was murdered.
