Steven Pladl murdered his wife, Katie, their son Bennett, and Katie's father, Anthony Fusco. This story made the headlines because Katie was not just Steven's second wife; she was also his biological daughter. Steven and his first wife, Alyssa, put Katie up for adoption when she was just a baby.

Join Mike and Morf as they discuss Steven Pladl and the murders he committed. Steven had a horrible temper and a history of grooming young girls. He began grooming his first wife, Alyssa, when she was only fifteen years old. Many years later, their daughter, Katie, who had been raised by a loving family, reunited with Steven and Alyssa. This began a strange odyssey that culminated in the murder of three people.
