TONIGHT'S MUST-SEES

"The D.C. Sniper's Wife," 6 p.m., truTV (formerly Court TV)/KHON, digital 119. Mildred Muhammad comes across as a warm and wise person who survived crushing events. Her husband, John, she says, was bitter after leaving the military. When they split, he kidnapped their children. She got them back; he stalked her. So she says the next step wasn't a major surprise: He was arrested and convicted as the sniper who brought terror to the Washington, D.C., area. Barbara Kopple, an Oscar-winning documentary-maker, captures this compelling story. She focuses mainly on Mildred Muhammad, but also includes officials, news footage and more.
