The episode details the brutal 2015 murder of Angila Wilder in Minot, North Dakota, a crime rooted in jealousy, domestic abuse, and a toxic custody dispute involving her ex-husband. The source traces the history of Angila and her ex-husband, Richie Edwin Wilder Jr., from their marriage and subsequent divorce due to his violence, to Angila's new life and pregnancy that intensified Richie's resentment.

It also exposes the shocking role of Richie's second wife, Cynthia Louise Wilder, a kindergarten teacher who acted as his accomplice by scouting the scene and cleaning up the evidence, actions she later confessed to an ex-boyfriend in a recorded conversation. Ultimately, the text chronicles the investigation, the conviction of both Richies for the murder conspiracy, and the enduring impact the tragedy had on Angila's children and the community.
