In December of 2007, the National Forests of the Eastern US were being hunted by a killer. By that point, Gary Hilton had already claimed two victims. But as 2007 turned to 2008, he set his sights on two more. Little did he know, as he slunk through National Forests targeting these women, that they would be his downfall. Because Cheryl Dunlap and Meredith Emerson weren’t going to go down without a fight. And their fight not only led police to the realization that they had a serial killer on their hands, but led them right to him, in a game of cat and mouse unlike anything we’ve ever seen.

John "Jack" and Irene Bryant had been married for 58 years. In those years, the 80-year-old couple had hiked and kayaked from coast to coast. The outdoors were their home. Unfortunately, they were also Gary Hilton’s hunting grounds. When he laid eyes on the elderly couple, he didn’t see two people who had lived a beautiful life: He saw a meal ticket and a way to quell the dark cravings that had been simmering in him since childhood. What followed was the unraveling of not just a murderer, but a serial killer. An unraveling that still has us asking today: Just how many victims does he have?

In September of 2019, a sheriff’s deputy in rural Georgia walked down the desolate road, in the dark, ready to help whoever was behind the wheel of the minivan that had crashed into a concrete culvert. He thought it would be a routine call. He’d check in with the driver, call an ambulance, and be on his way. But the closer he got to the van… the more unbearable the stench got. It was a smell he, sadly, knew all too well. Death. And as he spoke to the driver, his fears were confirmed. The man looked at him calmly and told him: “You might want to put me in handcuffs. My wife is in the trunk.”

Nicole had no idea that her mom, Robin Warr Lawrence, was gone. When her body was finally discovered, no one had any idea who would have wanted to kill her. For nearly 3 decades, Robin’s loved ones waited to find out who had taken her life. When the answers finally came, they came from the mouth of her killer himself.

At first, the officer tried to tell himself he was looking at a deer carcass. Everything told him it wasn’t. The black bra. The location. The missing woman, Tara Lynn Grant. He knew he was looking at her dismembered remains, tossed into a tote bin, forgotten like trash. But wrapping his mind around why seemed impossible. How could someone do this, someone who claimed to love her? And if he had… where had he put the rest of her?

Robert Brashers was a monster, murderer, and rapist who hid in plain sight for nearly four decades. Despite killing at least 8 people in his lifetime, he never served a second in jail for homicide. In this episode, we bring his crimes into the light, in depth, for the very first time. But even with all the information, a question remains: How many more victims does Robert Brashers have?

December 6th, 1991, is a day that changed Austin forever. Four young girls were assaulted, shot, and set ablaze in a yogurt shop in the dead of night. Four vibrant lives were taken away in an instant. And for three decades, no one really knew who was behind it. Innocent people sat in jail for a heinous crime that they didn’t commit. Families suffered, not knowing who had taken the lives of their loved ones. Until, finally, in 2025, answers arrived: Revealing that the man behind the crimes was never even on their radar.

In 2016, the Pulse massacre was the most violent mass shooting to ever take place on American soil. 49 innocent people were dead. Dozens more were wounded and traumatized. But many made it their mission to ensure those people did not die in vain. In our final part of this 4-part series, we will look at the helpers in the aftermath of the shooting. Those who are fighting for love, tolerance, and acceptance for all. And those who are fighting for legislation that could have kept their loved ones alive. Because when the full picture of what happened inside Pulse came to light, it became clear that there were dozens of chances to save lives: Chances that, tragically, no one took.

By 5 am on June 12th, 2016, news that there had been a shooting at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando was everywhere. Family members gathered outside the club, at hospitals, and at victims' centers, desperate to find out if their loved ones had survived. When the shooting came to an end, the horror of what people endured was really just beginning. For the entire day, victims' loved ones searched the city in agony for answers. In part 3 of our 4-part series, we will explore the endless day that followed the Pulse shooting, the funerals of the victims, and the reaction by the public. A reaction which was loving and supportive… but at times, violent and cruel.

It was just after 2 am. Over 200 people were enjoying the freedom that Pulse, an LGBTQ nightclub, offered. They were dancing. Connecting. Singing. Embracing the beauty of being alive and being understood. But in an instant, the night changed entirely. Within just a few minutes, dozens would be dead. And over the next few hours, those who did survive would be forced to fight for their lives as they were held captive by a shooter. In part 2 of our 4-part series, we will take you minute by minute through the shooting – looking at every victim, and countless survivors, as they tried to make it through the endless night.
