There are two sides to every story. Somewhere in between varying accounts of a shared experience lies the truth, but the deceased can’t share their version of events. When relying on only one narrative, the truth can become muddied and leave us scrambling for answers.

The case we’re discussing in this episode wasn’t big news. The mystery surrounding 47-year-old Kevin Parker’s stabbing death mostly fueled local interest. Kevin’s family and loved ones were determined to get closure and fill in the blanks for a crime that seemed to have no motive. 

Only two people know the full truth about events leading to Kevin’s death. And one of them was killed. Let’s dive into this 2019 Michigan homicide and see if you can decide - was this murder, self-defense, or a lethal clash of personalities?
