During the fall semester of her junior year, Victoria Carter saw a flyer for a particular Divine Nine sorority.  Victoria was eager to learn more about the prestigious sorority and set a goal to ultimately becoming a member.  Victoria was ecstatic when she found out that she was picked to be a part of the Fall 2010 pledge class of said sorority.  That excitement began to fade when she quickly realized that the process was both grueling and inhumane.  But how bad could it get?… Worse than anyone could imagine.

In our very first follow-up episode, we reveal some interesting tidbits we learned from speaking to someone close to Josephine's case.   Some of which has never been shared in the news or on the tv show that covered the case.  If you were on the fence before about whether Raynard truly committed this heinous crime (murdering his mother), perhaps this episode will bring clarity.. or muddy things even more.
