  • E61: The Farris Family

    The Farris family seemed to be perfect. For one, they were extremely rich. But no one could have guessed the jealousy and tension that was running through the family.

    That is, until all the nasty feelings within the family became revealed through the murder of their patriarch, Gary Farris.

    When investigators began looking into Gary's death, they found something extremely odd. The mother, Melody Farris, was blaming her son, Scott, for the murder. But Scott was blaming Melody.
