Febriana tells John the case of Kouri Richins, the Utah grief-book author convicted of murdering her husband, Eric, with fentanyl.

This is the case of Diane Downs, a mother who drove to an Oregon hospital with her three children shot in the car.

She said a stranger attacked them on a dark rural road.

But the story did not fit, and her surviving daughter would later say there was no stranger.

This is the case of Jennifer Pan, whose mother was killed and whose father was left for dead inside their home.

At first, it looked like a home invasion.

Then the father survived, and the story behind the 911 call began to fall apart.

A man spends nearly eighteen years pretending to be a doctor connected to the World Health Organization.

A mother calls 911 from her own home.

Inside, police find all five of her children dead in the bathtub.

But the real question was not whether Andrea Yates killed them.

It was whether her mind had completely broken before she did.

This is one of the most disturbing and messed up cases we’ve ever covered.

It is about a teenage girl convincing her boyfriend to kill himself.

And not just failing to stop him.

She arrived in Los Angeles alone.

Nothing seemed out of place.

Until it did.

And then—she vanished.
