I've been shot in the lake.

Okay, where are you at?

I think that when people think about murder cases, it's like the car accident you can't

turn away from and they automatically think, oh my gosh, how horrible.

And if it happened to that, could it happen to me?

The home, the daughter's on the floor, the bell over and there's a nail in the sheet

right there in the house.

But they also want to know the why.

That's what drives the appetite, to learn what really happens inside the investigation.

How did they do that?

Oh, why did they do that?

And we, through our backgrounds, we can hopefully give insight to that.

I'm Scott Weinberg, I spent the last 25 years as an investigative journalist and before

that, I was a sheriff's deputy.

I'm Anna Siegen-Nikolasi, I'm a former New York City homicide prosecutor and now I'm

also host of investigation discoveries, true conviction.

And now we have a podcast, The Anatomy of Murder.

And the reason why we use that term is we're actually breaking down all the critical decisions

that are made within these cases.

In a way that hopefully is different than you've heard up before, you're going to hear

from the actual people involved.

Hi, my name's Heidi Jones-Acey, my mom was killed when I was four.
