There was another goof in the movie. When David picked Adrianne up she got into a car,as the car drove off it turned into a truck. When they murdered her it turns into a car again. The police officer asked her brother if he had seen anything and he said he saw a truck .
I just saw the movie and it made no sense to me because so much was missing, the whole thing was so hard to believe. Its only now after reading around, I have come to know that the producers were in a hurry to make the movie for whatever obvious reasons even before the trial started, and the morons based the entire movie around Davids confession<--- what a stupid thing to do... its a painful story and it should have been dealt with more responsibility... all they have done is made David look like a stupid mad in love softy, whereas he might have been the whole mastermind and the poor crazy gal, who knows what mental condition shes got......... Last but not the least, the characters were soo poorly defined, holly marie combs was absolutely wasted, she is one of the best actresses in the industry and did a fine job with whatever twisted script she had. i just wish they cud have done justice to this...
This story is loosely based on the real story of Diane Zamora and David
Graham. It was recently played on Lifetime Television for women because
the real life Diane Zamora wed a fellow inmate in a civil ceremony
(stood in by her mother and a friend) a few weeks ago. This story is
sick and sad, a young couple so caught up in one another they become
fanatically jealous. What is truly sad is that Diane and David, who
commit a murder due to David's infidelity, turn on one another in the
court. Their strong love wilted to personal defense and bad mouthing.
Like most television movies (and admit it, we are all suckers for tv
movies) this film plays up the sex, lies, and murder. If you want the
true story, buy the book or hit up the various sites on google. If you
want an interesting melodrama or to see some early work of the sweet and
fun Holly Marie Combs, watch this. It is well shot and acted for a
Lifetime Movie and tells such a sad story of two people who could have
been so much. ______________________________

I have watched this a few times on Lifetime when I was bored and there was nothing else on. The acting is okay. It is interesting to see Holly Marie Combs play a murderess and she does a decent job. The movie tries to hard to make David look sympathetic and Diane look evil. Cassidy Rae does a fair job as Adrienne however based on this film and other performances I feel her acting talent is limited.
In someways the film, except for the end where you see Adrienne's mother, makes it more about how sorry we should feel for David as opposed to the girl who was brutally murdered. The film makes David out to be a victim who didn't want to kill but was forced to. Which is complete garbage. He was a willing participant who even came up with the story to get Adrienne out of the house. I suppose this is because the film relies heavily on David's confession and not as much on news sources as it should have. The writing suffers from this lack of credible sources.
If looking for accurate information about this case, this film is not where you should be looking. Too much information came out in the trial that disproves significant issues.
While the film goes along with David's confession that he and Adrienne slept together after a track meet, this is not true. On A & E's American Justice it was told that it came out in the trial that this never happened. In fact someone else gave Adrienne a ride home that day. Since the trial happened after the film was made, the film is not at fault for this error, it would have made more sense to make a film after the trial. David even later admitted that he lied about sleeping with Adrienne. Given this information it leads one to believe that she rejected him and he decided to enact revenge on her. Thus he lied to his girlfriend and they decided to kill her. While this is merely speculation it is food for thought.

I caught this movie on the lifetime channel back in July and was kind of freaked out by it. I watched it because i like the work that Holly Marie Combs does. Well, I watched it and at first i was like umm this is going to be weird. Mainly because intercourse for 30 minutes is not all that appealing to me. But then it picked up and i got really interested. Then all of a sudden it became very chilling to watch and it was like i can't believed this really happened. It got really freaky and i was like in total shock for a couple of days, but then i got to thinking about what a really good movie it was. I would totally recommend this movie to all my friends for a creepy night out. 9 out of 10!!
Did you know
- TriviaAfter David Graham was tried and sent to prison, he stated that he and Adrianne Jones did not have a physical relationship after all making the motive for her murder a mystery.
- GoofsAfter the cross country meet, Adrianne and David board the school bus for the ride home. She is in the clothes she ran in, covered by sweats. Later, as the two make out in his car, he unhooks her bra. By 1995, when the events take place, nearly all female runners would have worn a sports bra which has no hooks.
