On November 13, 2022, four students from the University of Idaho are brutally stabbed to death in an off-campus house.

Were the Idaho victims his first, or was a serial killer hiding in the midst? The producers of The Piketon Massacre explore all sides of the shocking crime in pursuit of the truth.
