Summary

On New Year's Eve, 2020, Morgan Metzer was at her best friend's house, where she had been planning to celebrate the new year. She was feeling tired and decided to call it an early night. She drove home in Cherokee County, Georgia, got into bed, and quickly fell asleep. In the middle of the night, when she opened her eyes, she saw the shadow of a man standing in her bedroom doorway.

Join Mike and Morf as they discuss Morgan Metzer. Morgan was attacked in her home by a masked man dressed all in black. The man spoke to her, but in a disguised voice. All Morgan could think about was her children and living to see them again. Morgan survived, and during the investigation into her attack, the police identified an unlikely suspect.

0:44.8	Morve. How you doing this week, man? I'm doing pretty good. How you doing? I'm doing great. It's
0:49.6	getting cool here. Everybody is back to school, back to work. And I got the house to myself,
0:57.8	which is kind of a good and bad thing. It's good because, you know, I kind of like to do my own
1:03.0	thing. But it's bad because I have no one to talk to during the day. And sometimes, you know, that can be strange. I talk to the dogs, but they don't
1:13.7	talk back. Well, something tells me a lot of times you're sitting around playing some basketball

1:53.2	You think of your family, but somehow you lived through the ordeal, only to find out later that a person you knew,
2:03.7	a person you thought you could trust was actually your attacker. That's exactly what happened to a woman named Morgan Metzer.
2:09.2	It was January 1st, 2021. Morgan Metzer should have been at her best friend's house, where she had
2:15.1	been planning to celebrate New Year's Eve as the
2:17.5	clock struck midnight. But she had been feeling tired and just decided to call an early night.
2:23.1	She drove to her home in Cherokee County, Georgia, climbed into bed, and drifted off the sleep.
