We revisit a disturbing case from South Texas about a mother who took her role as protector to the extreme, resulting in the tragic death of an innocent teenage boy in Brownsville, Texas. The story, which began in 2020, centered on a shocking act of violence fueled by a parent's ultimate act of perceived defense.

Welcome back for Part 2 of the Sherri Papini story, picking up right after her dramatic reappearance. Outside the hospital, media attention exploded, with paparazzi following the family's car and reporters knocking on their door. The family retreated to a secluded log cabin in the mountains to escape the chaos, but behind the scenes, investigators were relentlessly digging into the truth. We discuss Sherri's multiple emotional interviews with police, which she would only sit for with her husband, Keith, in the room. The investigation ultimately uncovered a stunning truth: Sherri Papini's abduction was a total fabrication, staged with an ex-boyfriend.
