Beverly Hills son found guilty of murdering his mother for inheritance

A Beverly Hills widow, Violet Yacobi, was found dead at her home in 2017 after detectives initially suspected a fall or suicide. Over time, investigators built a case around her son Daniel, uncovering inconsistencies in his stories, a large potential inheritance (about $13 million), and a trail of digital and surveillance evidence showing him at the house the night Violet died.
