Four family members sat down for a home-cooked lunch in Leongatha, Australia. Within days, three were dead and one barely survived.

At the center of it all was Erin Patterson and a beef Wellington.

What happened inside that kitchen became one of Australia’s most disturbing murder trials.

A woman agreed to meet Elmoncy Sercle in Aventura, Florida, believing she was there to sell a pair of used sneakers she’d listed online.

What happened next turned violent and ended with her being run over by a vehicle.

Let's get into a Florida Man Friday case where entitlement takes it to a whole other level.

A teenage boy showed up for a routine school check-in in Brookville, Pennsylvania.

Staff hadn’t seen him in person for over a year, and what they saw stopped everything.

He weighed just 79 pounds, was wearing a diaper, and showed signs of severe malnutrition and abuse.

What investigators uncovered next left even the most seasoned of police officers shook.

A passerby heard a baby crying from a dumpster behind a hotel in Columbus, Georgia.

Inside, police found a newborn boy tied inside trash bags, left there for hours, and somehow still alive.

Firefighters responded to a burning car on a quiet Mississippi road just after sunrise. By the time the flames died down, there was nothing left but a blackened shell and no sign of the woman who owned it.

Hours later, 36-year-old Ebony Owens was reported missing after she didn’t show up for work. What started as a welfare check quickly turned into a homicide investigation.

As detectives peeled back the timeline, the truth surfaced in pieces: a shooting, a river, and a cover-up that stretched far beyond a moment of rage.

This is the murder of Ebony Owens ... and the fire was only the beginning.

Police were called to a home in Reedley, California, where Yesennia Rocha had been shot by her husband, Michael Rocha right in front of their adult children and family members.

What followed was a day-long manhunt and a deadly shootout with deputies that left two parents gone within 24 hours and their children trying to make sense of a life shattered in a single weekend.

This is the case of Yesennia Rocha, Michael Rocha, and the divorce he couldn’t accept.

A 911 call came in from a Florida motel pool reporting a possible drowning — but the man on scene said no one had drowned… and couldn’t explain where his fiancée was.

What police uncovered next involved infidelity, threats, a sudden breakup, and a woman found soaked, shaking, and pointing straight at the man she said tried to kill her. 

This is the case of Drew Williams, the Capri Motel pool, and the five minutes that almost ended in murder.

A frantic 911 call… a husband on the ground… and a wife screaming that she “did not mean to run over him.”

Just after 7:30 p.m. in Lavaca, Arkansas, Clayton Masterson was found crushed beneath a van while his estranged wife, Dara Masterson, begged dispatchers to help him. What started as a routine pickup ended in a scene investigators are still trying to untangle.

Was this a reckless, intoxicated act during a heated argument, or a panicked reaction from a woman who said she felt threatened?

This is the case of Dara and Clayton Masterson.

It started with a welfare check.

Deputies went out to a rural Georgia property looking for a 14-year-old girl named Mary Crocker… and instead uncovered a nightmare buried in the backyard. Mary wasn’t the only child missing. Her brother, Elwyn “JR” Crocker Jr., had vanished too, and neither child had ever been reported missing.

This is one of the most disturbing child abuse cases Georgia has ever seen.

This is the case of Mary and JR Crocker.

This is the case of Ally and Blackie — and animal neglect that turned fatal.

A late-night welfare check in Marana, Arizona turned into something far darker when police were shown screenshots no one could explain, 29-year-old Taton Dorfman, lying in bed next to his girlfriend, 30-year-old Hannah Rogers, covered in blood and saying, “I killed her.”

What started as a FaceTime call spiraled into a confession, a standoff, and a courtroom where forgiveness collided with reality.

This is the murder of Hannah Rogers.

But when detectives pulled her messages, search history, and photos that story started to look very different.

A welfare check in Everman, Texas should’ve been simple, until officers learned six-year-old Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez hadn’t been seen in months.

His mother, Cindy Rodriguez Singh, gave multiple stories about where the boy was, but was any of it true?

What followed was a flight out of the country, cadaver dog alerts, a demolished patio, and a mother added to the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list before finally being captured in India.

This is the disappearance of Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez…

and the case that won’t rest until investigators find out what really happened.

Moments later, deputies walked into one of the most disturbing murder-suicides Nassau County has ever seen.

First responders were called to a Cold Springs home for a little girl “not breathing”… but what they found didn’t look anything like a medical emergency. Five-year-old Izabella was cold to the touch, lying beside a bare mattress, her small body covered in bruises no child earns by accident.

As detectives moved through the house, the truth surfaced fast, and the parents’ stories fell apart the moment they opened their mouths.

Listen to the lies that Nicholas Loving and his partner tried to get away with.

A single gunshot inside a hunting cabin in Zambia, and a wealthy dentist claiming his wife accidentally shot herself while packing a rifle.

But the details around Bianca Rudolph’s death didn’t add up. Not the wound, not the timing, and definitely not what investigators uncovered about Larry Rudolph’s double life waiting back home.
Soon, a so-called accident turned into a murder case built on affairs, insurance money, and a confession heard when the music in a bar briefly went silent.

Did Larry kill his wife in the middle of the African bush… or was this truly a tragic mistake?

Two Florida cases, two sets of parents, and two stories that should’ve never been allowed to happen in the first place.

In the first case, six-year-old Anthony Rouse is found unresponsive in a bathtub. His parents claim he drowned… but the truth came out in text messages, a dog cage, and a sibling’s terrified confession.

The second case takes another turn. Nine children removed from a home full of locks, plywood, vinegar spray, and stories no child should ever tell. It looked like an airtight child-abuse prosecution ... until it wasn't.

Two cases and two endings no one saw coming.

And a reminder that sometimes the most dangerous people in a child’s life are the ones tucking them into bed.
