A
South Jersey murder case is the focus of the premiere episode of “Fugitive
Strike Force,” produced and written by former Fox29 “Good Day
Philadelphia” Hollywood correspondent, Molly Mayock, July 6th at
9 p.m. on Discovery Channel.
The
episode follows US Marshals, a SWAT team, and a bounty hunter as they search
for two New Jersey fugitives suspected of committing a murder in a Lakewood,
New Jersey barbershop in February then going on the run to Las Vegas.
Mayock,
a native of Drexel Hill, PA who has lived in California for years, also wrote
another episode of the six-episode series.
Since
her days at “Good Day,” Mayock participated in the Ben Affleck/Matt
Damon-helmed “Project Greenlight” and was seen as a movie expert on E!
Her brother Mike is an analyst for the NFL Network.
