About this episode
On July 30, 2000, an 85-year-old man and his 78-year-old wife are taken hostage and soon after killed in a home in Concord, California. In the following days, three more murders are committed as a trio of offenders seek to leave minimal witnesses behind. When the perpetrators are apprehended and their motivations revealed, the truth behind the bloodbath is as bizarre as it is frightening - a dark and elaborate plan so disconnected from reality it’s impossible to comprehend how such violence could be justified in anyone’s mind. In episode 350, Jac and Alexis, with the help of none other than Holly Madison, detail the grisly spree killings of Ivan and Annette Stineman, Selina Bishop, Jennifer Villarin, and James Gamble, and discuss how close Playboy magazine’s September 2000 playmate, Kerissa Fare, came to this horrifying powder keg situation.
