In this three-part series, we take a deep dive into one of the most pivotal cases in modern true crime history — Columbine.

This first episode breaks down what actually happened on April 20, 1999. We walk through the timeline, the warning signs, the missed opportunities, and the layers that only became visible after the fact.

Because Columbine didn’t start that day.

And it didn’t end there either.

In the episodes that follow, we’re going to look at what came after — the cases that followed in its wake — and ultimately ask the question:

What if Columbine happened today?

Would anything be different?
