On the evening of July 13, 2020, Corinna Smith seemed like any other wife returning home after a day out with her daughter. But beneath the surface, something had shifted.
After a tense conversation, a long-buried family secret had been revealed — one that would change everything.
Consumed by emotion, Corinna made a phone call, then another. Her mind raced as she tried to piece together the past and the horrifying implications of what she had just learned.
As the hours passed, she grew more agitated. Then, just before midnight, she walked into her kitchen, filled a kettle, and turned it on.
Twice, she boiled the water. Then, with a steady hand, she poured in bag after bag of sugar, creating a thick, scalding syrup mixture.
When it was ready, she carried the bucket into the bedroom where her husband, Michael, lay sleeping — completely unaware of what was about to happen.
