Pelosi Case
Ted Ammon was beaten to death in his home on October 21st, 2001. Daniel Pelosi has been accused of murdering Ted Ammon. Pelosi has been labeled the prime suspect because he is the electrician that installed the security surveillance system in Ammons home which was breached on the day of the killing. The surveillance tapes contain limited video on the day of the killing. The security system was accessed from a remote location via a laptop and was turned off. Only a few people have the access code for the security system and Pelosi was one of them.

This is the same time that Ammon murdered, which would indicate that Pelosi could not have possibly committed the crime.
Ammon is reported to have been attacked with a stun gun prior to being beaten. This points the finger at Pelosi because he has a stun gun. Stun guns are sold all over the internet which could be sold and is sold to anyone that wants one. The fact that Pelosi had a stun gun and Ammon was stunned by a stun gun does not clearly say that Pelosi did it. A Stun gun is a quiet way to take someone down. Many people know this,
