Melissa Patterson is an all around narcissist. She used her manipulative ways to sneakily change an innocent, 96 year old WWII Veteran's will in order to have all of his money transferred to her at the time of his death. Well, she could not wait for this to happen naturally, so she took his death (murder) into her own hands. Kenna details her life and crimes, as well as the amazing story of Marty and Penny Knell.
