What happens when a family is shattered by violence that leaves a husband and father on the run? Episode 50 of Killer in the Family marks a sombre milestone as we confront the harrowing story of the Fisher family. 

On 10 April 2001 a family home in a street in Arizona exploded. Inside Mary Fisher and her two children Bobby and Brittney Fisher had died. They didn’t die in the explosion; however, they were killed by husband and father Robert Fisher. He then escaped and is still a wanted fugitive to this day. 

This is the story of the Fisher Family.
