In this episode, we're discussing two different cases, the disappearances of Monique Daniels and Jhessye Shockley. Both are very similar cases but with very different outcomes. Monique Daniels, a 15-year-old from Moore, Oklahoma, disappeared in 1992. In 2011 5-year-old Jhessye Shockley disappeared from Arizona. The parents of both victims were charged and convicted on child abuse charges.
Join Mike and Morf as they discuss these two cases. In both, suspicion was cast on a parent and/or stepparent, and siblings told the authorities very damaging information. But, only in the case of Jhessye Shockley was a murder conviction obtained. Even though many people believe that the mother and stepfather of Monique Daniels were involved somehow in her disappearance, to date, neither has been charged with murder.

True crime

Can a person commit heinous crimes, including murder, while sleepwalking? There have been many cases over the years where sleepwalking has been used as a defense.
Join Mike and Morf as they discuss cases involving murder and sleepwalking. In some cases, the victim is in the same house. In others, the person drove their car to the murder scene. Ultimately, as it always is, it's up to a jury to decide what happened and the defendant's fate.
