Summary
Emily and Shane are discussing Nathan Carman, the boy that was accused of fatally shooting his grandfather in 2013 before murdering his mother three years later.
Was his grandfather’s $42 million fortune his incentive to commit the first murder? Did he abandon his mother in the middle of the ocean because she knew his secret? When Nathan committed suicide in his jail cell, did that prove his guilt?

Anyway, there is an update on this case because there were several bodies that were found. |
