27 - A Heroic Daughter - The Stay Family Murders

On this week's case, Avery and Dylan talk about the heartbreaking Stay Family murders. On July 9th, 2014, 15 year old Cassidy Stay was watching her four younger siblings while her parents went out to run errands. While they were gone, a man dressed as a FedEx driver came to their home and eventually forced his way in. Cassidy Stay realized the man was actually her uncle named Ronald Haskell who had recently gone through a divorce with her aunt. When the parents returned home, Haskell forced them to all lie down in a row and he took their innocent lives. However, Cassidy survived and was able to contact 911 and ultimately saved the rest of her family members that Haskell was after.
