307. Burning Betrayal: The Murders of Tim and Kelly Farrar

 The night was bitter that October night, but then came the fire. An all-consuming inferno that lit up the quiet streets of Prairie Village.  In minutes, the Farrar home — the suburban dream home belonging to two respected doctors, Michael Farrar and Deborah Green, and their three children, Timothy, Kate, and Kelly — was consumed by flames. The firefighters arrived and battled the blaze, but it was too little, too late. Two people made it out. The rest… didn’t. What was left behind wasn’t just a burned-out house — it was ground zero for a waking nightmare. As dawn broke and the smoke cleared, investigators searched what was left of the family's home. They were expecting tragedy. What they weren’t expecting was malice. Because beneath the ashes, something darker began to take shape—something deliberate.

This wasn’t an accident.
 It was murder.

305. Genetic Justice: Unmasking Robert Brashers

 For years, Robert Brashers had managed to evade justice, slipping through the cracks repeatedly. But on January 13, 1999, his luck finally ran out in a modest motel room in Kennett, Missouri. What began as a routine police search quickly escalated into a tense, life-or-death standoff that would forever change the lives of those involved. Who was Robert Brashers? A man who his wife and children loved. What could have driven him to such a tragic end?  The entire truth would remain hidden for years, with whispers suggesting that there were more victims out there.
