Summary

Keith Morrison and Josh Mankiewicz sit down to talk about Keith’s episode, “Down the Rabbit Hole.” In 2012, Mary Ann Murphy was found stabbed to death in her Humble, Texas, home. What initially looked like a simple break-in gone wrong, turned out to be something far more complicated. A thorough investigation of the crime led detectives down a path of multiple suspects and a web of lies. Josh and Keith discuss the young lovers at the center of the crime and the puzzling false confession from an innocent man. Plus, they answer viewer and listener questions about the episode.
