Summary

To the outside world they looked like a normal couple, but they were anything but “normal”. 

Steven Pladl was not only his wife’s lover, but also her biological father - and needless to say this story doesn't end with a happily ever after. In April 2018, less than a year after they were married Pladl shot and killed his daughter/wife Katie, their 7 month old son and Katie's adoptive father - Tony Fusco.

Join the girls this week as they delve into the mysterious world of genetic sexual attraction and the tragedy it brought in this case.
