Welcome to the Episode 20 of Murder & Mayhem: South African True Crime.

About the episode:

Adopted by a couple who only hoped to share love and affection with him, one young man grew up and into adulthood to repay his family in the most disturbing manner. 

Aided by a friend, he committed a heinous attack on his unsuspecting parents and left a country in shock when the news of the crime hit the media. And as the months went on, the case took many twists and turns with justice seeming as though it would never be served. 

The question on everyone’s mind though-what causes a child to attack his own parents?

 
This is the disturbing case of the crimes of Ruan Van Heerden
