| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, I'm Ashley Banfield, and this is Drop Dead Serious. I thought this case couldn't get any more |
| 0:11.9 | disturbing. And then the newest details came in. What happened to 22-year-old Rebecca Park isn't just |
| 0:19.2 | brutal. It is almost impossible to wrap your head around it. |
| 0:23.9 | But the story now comes complete with career criminals who have rap sheets as long as your arm |
| 0:28.3 | and disturbing criminal pasts that are so dark, it makes you wonder how they were out walking |

| 1:35.4 | They had both been arrested the day after Rebecca was found. |
| 1:39.6 | The sister for allegedly lying to the police and evidence tampering, and the fiancé for allegedly |
| 1:44.8 | delivering meth, but notice, no murder charges. Very interesting. Kimberly, the sister, will not |
| 1:53.7 | be attending Rebecca's service because she's confined to her house with an ankle bracelet. |
| 1:58.9 | And I think it's safe to say Rebecca's biological mother |
