Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
Five people learnaments are one left. What started as a
family road trip ended as a massacre. Murdered children and
murdered mother. You don't really need to see the crime
scene photos to have your heartbroken. Any odd sapsy photos
will stop you in your tracks. This was the first

(00:25):
time that I had seen children. What first appeared a
murder suicide ended as an investigation of the soul survivor,
the father, Christopher Vaughan. Most people who would just assume
that he must have done it because he's the one
a lot where met by reporters. They wanted to know

(00:46):
right out the bed. Like Chris Kielder family, we were
no longer families of victims. We were the family of
a killer. Christopher Vaughan's initial behavior drew scrutiny in the ambulance.
When he is yelling at them about cutting off her
boots and not ringing his jacket, He's just seeing his

(01:09):
kids murdered. It's disgusting for us to think that we
know how someone should or should not act that has
been through that. Everything he's been doing has been to hide,
to think about it, to not face it, to not
look at it. Three children were murdered by the last
person they ever thought would harm them. My best friend

(01:29):
lost her life and is not here to tell the truth.
How do you walk away if your kids have been shot?
You don't? He said, They just arrest Chris, and her
first words were, but he didn't do it. Did the
person convicted of four murders actually pull the trigger? This

(01:52):
remains a polarizing question. She was the mother of all mothers.
She would have protected her kids like she was a
mother a bear. When nobody else was around, that dark
side would come out. And I know he didn't do it.
He loved those kids way too much for any of that.
We'll take a closer look at a case riddled with inconsistencies, allegations, scandals,

(02:17):
and betrayal. Nobody stopped to think about, Wait a minute,
what if he did not do this? Every answer that
we get just leaves another question. None of their theories
of how this happened. The crime scene evidence we uncovered
never before heard bombshell revelations. They had no proof that

(02:38):
he was the actual shooter. There's another side that we're
not The gun was covered with a cloth that they
brought to the Morgan then washed it. I don't get
what's going on and new developments that could change everything
have been old but impossible for him to have shot
himself that way. Both the prosecution in theory and the

(03:01):
defenses theory are incorrect. That's not how it happened. So
how did it happen? Lyon I'm Lauren brad Pacheco. Join
