Mr. Ballin

It was not until she got into the cave and Remy showed up with a mask on and a rifle that she realized he had something way more sinister in his mind.

After the murder, Remy convinced Audrey to stay silent by threatening to kill her and her children.

And for over a year, she kept a secret, lying to the police the whole time.

But when she watched that true crime episode about the case and saw Mark's plea for information, she finally just cracked and confessed to her friend Sophie, who was watching the show with her, who then went on to call the police the very next day.

On March 31, 2016, Remy Shen and Audrey Louvet were arrested for their roles in Patrick's death.

Remy received 30 years in prison for murder, and Audrey was sentenced to 12 years for acting as an accessory to the kidnappings.

A quick note about our stories, they are all based on true events, but we sometimes use pseudonyms to protect the people involved, and some details are fictionalized for dramatic purposes.
