Based on the true story of the Wineville Chicken Coop Murders, also known as the Wineville Chicken Murders.
Twice in the film, Angelina Jolie's character "Christine" says: "Never start a fight, but always finish it". This is the same quote that Captain John Sheridan says his father always told him in the 90's sci-fi series "Babylon 5" (1994) which writer J. Michael Straczynski also wrote. Likewise, Attorney Hahn's description of how his daughter's absence continues to affect him daily is nearly identical to the way Sheridan describes grappling with his wife's death.
