In September of 2004, Mary Lou Jones called one of her daughter’s friends in Florida, concerned that she had gone several days without hearing from her daughter Michelle. The friend, who also hadn’t heard from Michelle in days, went over to Michelle’s house, and discovered a horrific scene. Michelle and her aunt Teri had been savagely murdered by Teri’s husband, Charlie Brandt. Charlie then took his own life. An investigation into the life of Charlie Brandt shocked detectives as they found that this was not the first murder Charlie had committed, that he could’ve been responsible for over 20 vicious, graphic murders across the state of Florida.   Want access to our first 45 episodes? Grab em here! We've made them available for free to anyone who signs up!

On Halloween weekend in 2010, the Liske family enjoyed hunting and a neighborhood get-together before the Trick-Or-Treat festivities were to begin.  But when 16-year-old, Devon, realized that something was wrong after returning home from his church choir concert, he went to his parents’ bedroom to see if they were there.  He walked in and thought they were pulling an elaborate Halloween prank on him when he saw them lying in bed with blood on their sheets.  However, he quickly learned that it wasn’t a prank and someone had killed his parents.  Unfortunately, his parents weren’t the only family members murdered in their home.  His older brother, Derek, was later found dead in his bedroom as well.  Want access to our first 45 episodes?
