It's a homicide.

Absolutely.

The blame game in this family went round and round.

Well, it's a thrill to be here, Anne-Marie, and I have to agree with you.

We've never really had a case like this where there really were two realities.

So if you look at the evidence, the cops did, it's an ordinary, well, ordinary premeditated murder.

But if you listen to Nick Kasotis, he's a former naval officer and lawyer.

He tells a very different story.

So the bottom line was, who do you believe?

So true.

OK, so by June of 2022, they were living in an Airbnb in Savannah, Georgia, and they were living with Mindy's parents, who also believe, because so is the story, that they were being surveilled, harassed.

Mindy had told some of her friends about the harassment, and she told them it was all connected to her husband and some of the classified work that he had done when he was in the Navy.

And according to her friends, there was no question Mindy believed it and was truly scared for her life.

And here's the evidence we found of that.

This was something we did not put in the show, but that Airbnb was just blocks from where Mindy's best friend from high school, Morgan Paddock, lived.

But Mindy apparently was so afraid to leave the house, she never even told Morgan that.

She never reached out to her.

And Morgan had no idea she was there because they had stopped communicating at this point.
