Foul Smell Leads Cops to a Terrifying Discovery

This episode details a homicide investigation centered on the discovery of a dismembered body within a prominent Seattle homeless encampment known as the Jungle. Workers found the remains of Shannon Reeder stuffed inside a suitcase hidden within a tent belonging to Steven Tonuen. During police questioning, Tonuen claimed the victim died of a fentanyl overdose and that he merely hid the body to avoid legal trouble. However, medical examiners discovered traumatic head and neck injuries inconsistent with his story and more aligned with a sharp-force attack. Consequently, authorities charged Tonuen with second-degree murder as he awaits trial for the crime.
