Summary

Tricia Todd went missing the night of April 26, 2016 and was never seen alive again. After following several leads, the police were no closer to finding her or the events of that fateful night. But after reading through her blog post, they found troubling posts in regards to her ex-husband, Steven Williams and his troubling past. Savannah explores how Tricia Todd's own words lead police to Steven who eventually confessed to murdering Tricia and the unfortunate plea deal he received that will allow him to be released from prison in 39 years.
