Who is Toby Crenshaw on Alaska Daily? (SPOILER)
It was Toby who invited Gloria to the party she disappeared from in the first place, Eileen and her fellow reporter Roz (Grace Dove) find out after researching Gloria’s life.
Of course, that makes him a prime suspect. They go to question him, determined to uncover the truth.
Roz gets straight to the point and asks Toby if he murdered Gloria Alaska Daily Season 1, Episode 2. Toby denies it. He admits that he knew Gloria was going to an afterparty that night and that she called Toby to pick her up from the afterparty.
However, he refused that night; Toby was still angry about an argument he had with Gloria. However, it turns out that Toby didn’t tell the two reporters all the straight facts.

Toby, played by newcomer Brandon Alexis (according to his IMDB Page, this is his first acting role!), is arrested after his DNA is found from a sample taken from Gloria’s body. However, the Alaska Daily The Season 1 Episode 9 Preview reveals the aftermath of Eileen and Roz’s feverish search for the truth.
When Toby reveals that he “had no choice” but to confess after hours of police interrogation, Roz wonders, horrified, “Did we just play a role in the rush to sentencing?”

After all, it was Roz and Eileen who pushed for the DNA test in the first place, leading police straight back to Toby when he was initially cleared of suspicion. Even the title of the episode itself, “Rush to Judgment,” is a clue pointing to Toby’s innocence.
Eileen and Roz listen at the press conference announcing Toby’s arrest.
But if Toby didn’t murder Gloria, then who did? At this point, Eileen and Roz need to clear Toby’s case first, to make sure an innocent person doesn’t get hurt in their quest for the truth (well, he definitely did after he was arrested, especially when he’s actually innocent.)
