What do you do with a killer in your family? Our special guest gives us the inside scoop! In 2020, the murder of 24-year-old Alyssa Burkett shocked Carrollton, Texas. While her ex-boyfriend, Andrew Beard, pulled the trigger, he wasn't acting alone. This episode explores the role of Holly Ann Elkins, the fiancée who spent months meticulously destroying Alyssa’s life. From planting drugs and guns in the victim's car to purchasing the (very offensive!) makeup used in Beard’s disguise, we examine how Elkins acted as the puppet master, goading her partner into committing the unthinkable.
