Horrified, the conductor laid on the horn and hit the brakes. In front of the 6,000 ton cargo train, two teenage boys were lying motionless across the tracks. The train ran over their bodies and continued another half mile before stopping. But had the boys already been murdered?

Season 2 Episode 21:

Near Sydney, Australia, in 1990, a woman, her sister, and their children were driving down the highway when their van door flew open and a man dove in behind the seats. He screamed "drive! Go!" As she drove away, she saw another man, gun in the air, standing in the road, staring them down.

Little did anyone in the van know at the time, but the man standing in the road would later be coined "the Backpack Killer."

While Australia boomed in the backpacking and tourism industry though the 1980's, Ivan Milat, was honing his craft.

Deemed a natural born killer who likely boasted antisocial personality disorder traits with other psychopathic tendencies, Ivan decided that to kill was not enough...he needed to play.

Season 2: Episode 18

Lighter fluid was poured down her throat and she was set aflame.

In the small town of Courtland, Mississippi, in 2014, an incredible tragedy occurred. Firefighters arrived to a scene they couldn't be more unfamiliar with. Something described as a "zombie" was walking in their direction.

The reality was that 18 year old Jessica Chambers had been burned alive, the only part of her body not on fire being the bottoms of her feet. Before her death, she managed to say a name...but was that in fact the name of her murderer?

Join Andrea Up Late on Nightshift to talk about this case. There have been no convictions in her murder, but controversial cell phone data, and concrete video footage, tell quite a story.

Oh, and is her death related to the tortuous murder of a Taiwanese exchange student that occurred one year later?

Candy wrappers were found in a neighbor's barn. A hair clip, pencil, and other belongings were also located amongst the mud after a rainstorm. There was an unknown nightgown, and most bizarre - a picture of a still unidentified little girl.

But on Valentine's Day morning, in the before-school rush, her mother had a startling surprise. Little Asha was not in her bed.
