This is another one of those true crime cases where if it played out on the big screen, you would think the storyline was far too wild to ever be true. Unfortunately, what 17-year-old Daniel LaPlante did to the pregnant mother of two, Priscilla Gustafson, was very real. It’s unimaginable that a young man at his age could do something so sickening, but Daniel wasn’t new to causing people terrible pain. He had worked his way up to a triple homicide by stalking a young woman, even going as far as to live in the walls of their home. I’m not joking when I say that this is one of the most shocking true crime cases I’ve covered. For obvious reasons, the story of Daniel LaPlante and his crimes comes with a huge trigger warning for sexual assault and the murder of children.
