On the evening of 4 February 2019, Ammar Al-Yasari, 35, came home from the credit union where he worked in East Lansing to his house on Glenberry Drive in Holt, Michigan. Inside, someone was waiting with a camp ax. He was struck twenty-four times. Bleach was poured over him. At 8:05 p.m. his wife, B'dour Al-Yasari, 28, called 911. That night she sat with Detective William Lo of the Ingham County Sheriff's Office and walked him through her day to the minute: the schools, the library, the supermarket, the garage door that would not open, the front door she found unlocked. She told him her husband was kind, that everybody loved him, that she had a "friend with benefits" she would not name. This is that interview, as recorded. What she did not tell him: the house alarm had been disarmed remotely at 5:32 p.m., and her own dashboard camera had recorded her saying "let me disarm the house" as she drove past. Four days earlier a supermarket camera had recorded her boyfriend, Jacob Ficher, a 27-year-old former soldier, buying the ax and the bleach. At lunchtime that day her work computer had been used to search how to delete the data on a phone. Ficher was convicted of first-degree murder and conspiracy in November 2019 and sentenced to life without parole. B'dour Al-Yasari was tried separately; a jury found her guilty of both counts in April 2022 and she received the same sentence in June 2022. On 14 July 2026 the Michigan Court of Appeals affirmed her convictions. Every recording in this film is the public release, in order. Narration facts are drawn from the Court of Appeals opinion (People v Al-Yasari, No. 362096, 14 July 2026), Fox 47 and WILX Lansing, the Lansing State Journal and Oxygen. The alarm-log rows, the timeline and the dashcam scene are reconstructions re-set from the court record and labelled on screen. Her two daughters were minors; they are not named or shown.
