Episode 4: The Piketon Massacre

One family.  32 bullets. 8 murders.  Somebody had been watching them.  Someone knew their habits.  Where they slept.  Someone entered 4 homes in the quiet night hours and killed 8 members of the same family on April 22 2016.  But who? - and - Why?

This is the case of the murder of the Rhoden Family, at recording the case had not yet gone to trial.
