  • #18 - Amanda Taylor

    Amanda and Rex Taylor met in the ninth grade and they were infatuated with each other from the start. They started dating and Amanda became pregnant with their first child, a son, and dropped out of school. They became a totally inseparable couple and married at the young age of 19. They also went on to have a daughter. You'd think this is the start of a beautiful high school sweethearts fairytale story but by 2014 the Taylor family was going downhill. A year later Rex would take his own life and Amanda would seek revenge for the man she loved more than anything.

  • #16 - Josh Powell-Part 2

    We left off last time with Charlie telling investigators that his mom stayed where the crystals are ’cause it has so much pretty where the crystals grow. Authorities questioned Josh about this statement and his response was, "“She was not with us. They know that’s not true.” So who was telling the truth? Susan's supposed loving husband or her very young son?
