When 13 year old Melonie Biddersingh, her little brother Dwayne and step brother Cleon went to Canada to live with their father, they had dreams just like many immigrants do.  They hoped for a brighter future, better than the one they had growing up in a Jamaican slum. The reality was something they never expected and something that no one would ever want to live through.  One of them would be witness to the suspicious and terrible deaths of two siblings.

Genevieve Lewis and Steven Cornish were brutally murdered while walking on a beautiful beach on the island of St. Thomas.  The murder by machete was brutal, gory and witnessed by many. Daniel St. Clair's defense was, of course, insanity.  The prosecution disagreed stating that his belief in voodoo steered his choices that fateful day.  It's a classic case of Voodoo Prosecution VS. The Insanity Defense.

72 year old Andre Bamberski seemed like an unlikely kidnapper.  He was a mild mannered but tenacious accountant. The victim was a 74 year old physician and step father to Andre's children.  These two men, who in many ways led parallel lives, also had one big difference between them.  One was a serial rapist and murderer, the other a devoted father who wanted justice for his daughter and worked for 30 years towards that goal.

Have you ever known someone who drives you absolutely mad?  The kind of person who makes your middle finger twitch?  It's just itching to raise every time that person comes around?  You only put up with them because you feel like you have to?  That is how many people felt about Phillip Boudreau.  He was a local scallywag, a pest that everyone had to deal with, until that is, he disappeared.  His character, behavior in life and ultimately, his murder would divide his small community.

Amber Peck and John Parker were looking for peace, quiet and to connect with nature and each other when they went camping in Ocala National Forest.  Sullying the beauty of nature was another man,  one with no good intentions.  In fact, he entered the woods with one reason.  The purpose of his trip was to kill someone in the forest but he didn't care who.  How does someone make a decision like that?  This case is one for the nurture side of the nature vs. nurture debate.
