On a quiet night in October 2012, a 911 dispatcher in Parker County, Texas, received a call that would chill them to the bone. On the other end of the line was 17-year-old Jake Evans, speaking with an eerie, calm detachment. He had just shot and killed his 48-year-old mother, Jami, and his 15-year-old sister, Mallory. In this episode, we dissect the chilling 20-minute 911 call and the four-page confession note inspired by a Hollywood slasher movie. What drives a teenager to obliterate his own family?

In December 2015, 19-year-old Katelin Akens traveled from her new home in Arizona back to Spotsylvania County, Virginia to celebrate the birth of her new nephew. Four days later, she was scheduled to board a flight back home - but she never made it to the airport. Instead, a series of bizarre text messages emerged from her phone. For over a decade, her family was left with text pings that didn’t add up and a trail that went completely cold. This week we piece together the timeline of Katelin’s final known hours, the conflicting stories of the last person to see her alive, and the devastating secrets that finally broke the case wide open.
