Brandi starts us off with the story of Johnson County\u2019s other serial killer. That\u2019s right, folks. There\u2019s more than one.

In the late 80\u2019s, young women in Johnson County apartment complexes had a good reason to be afraid. Three twenty-something\u2019s vanished without a trace. Their apartments showed no signs of a break in. But there weren\u2019t signs of murder, either. For a while, all anyone could go on was a sinking suspicion that something was terribly wrong.

Then, to everyone else in Sugar Land, Texas, the Whitaker family seemed to have it all. But that all changed one winter night in 2003. The family went out to celebrate Bart Whitaker\u2019s graduation from Sam Houston State University, and when they arrived back home, a masked gunman shot all four of the family members. Kevin died almost immediately. Trisha died in the hospital. Bart and his father Kent survived. They begged police to find the people responsible for the crime. But police didn\u2019t have to look too far\u2026

And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.
