After a people-pleasing Man returns from a business trip to discover his wife has been murdered, he [what???].
[struggles to prove his innocence.] [runs to avoid arrest and find the real killer.] [faces police skeptical of his innocence.] [is found guilty of murder and fights to prove his innocence.] See: THE FUGITIVE. [struggles to stay alive when the hitman hired to kill her comes for him.]
The logline is just the set up. What are the conflicts, stakes and goals after finding her dead? The adds about autopilot and losing touch with himself are irrelevant - unless they're germane to the plot.
Good luck.
