Last week we spoke to Ashley Michelle and heard her incredible story of survival. The day she almost lost her life, though, was the same day someone else lost theirs. Join us as we dive into the heartbreaking case that shocked the city of London, Ontario. In this episode, we unravel the haunting story of Nathan Deslippe, a young man, beloved by all that knew him, whose life was tragically cut short by the very person he thought he could trust the most-his best friend.
