The scene at the prayer home was full of details that didn't make sense.
Leslie, dead in an upstairs shower.
Some of it hastily cleaned up.
Lauren said she and her dad were in shock.
And when they went home, they weren't allowed in.
Until investigators could find answers, they told Sandy he'd have to find somewhere else to stay.
He moved into a nearby hotel while Leslie's body was moved to the county coroner's office.
Three days later, on May 5th, Lauren got news about her mother's autopsy.
Authorities would determine that Leslie Prier was killed in the foyer of her home.
She had been beaten and strangled with multiple blunt force trauma injuries.
A large V-shaped wound on her head matched the outline of the baseboards near the front door.
After her death, investigators believed that her body had been dragged upstairs and put into a scalding shower.
The water had been so hot it caused thermal burns.
Detectives believed that this was an attempt to clean up the scene.
Shock and fear spread throughout the neighborhood.
Leslie had been murdered in her own home, and the killer could still be out there.
But something else spread, too.
