Woody Overton opens with updates on #JusticeForHailey, #JusticeForMadison and #JusticeForStephanie, encouraging anyone with information to come forward and reminding Lifers that investigations continue even when developments cannot yet be made public.
Then, a possible new lead emerges in one of America's most notorious unsolved cases: the 1982 Chicago Tylenol Murders. Seven people died after taking cyanide-laced capsules, forever changing consumer packaging. Now, investigators are examining information concerning a man found dead in an Idaho church in 1982 and his possible connection to the killings. The case remains unsolved.
Woody also covers a Carnival cruise passenger reported overboard during a family anniversary trip and a Minnesota driver accused of fatally striking a pedestrian before proceeding through a McDonald's drive-thru.
In Family Matters, a Kentucky couple faces disturbing allegations of prolonged child abuse. Then, in F'd Up Professionals, a Detroit family discovers the woman prepared for their mother's funeral isn't their mother—and learns a devastating cremation mix-up may have occurred.
Woody closes with a reminder to never give up, never surrender, and keep the tips coming.
