About this episode

On July 9, 2014, a quiet home in Spring, Texas, became the site of an unimaginable act of violence. Six members of the Stay family were murdered in their own home. Parents Stephen Stay and Katie Stay, and four children, Bryan Stay, Emily Stay, Rebecca Stay, and Zach Stay, were killed by a man who believed he was owed something he had already lost. Only one person survived. Fifteen-year-old Cassidy Stay was shot in the head and left for dead. She stayed conscious. She stayed silent. And when her attacker left, she did more than call for help. She warned police where he was going next, stopping him before he could take more lives. In this episode, we walk through the full story. The family behind the headlines. The years of warning signs that went unheeded. The calculated nature of the attack. The trial that followed. And the decade Cassidy spent growing up with a story no one should ever have to carry. Listener discretion advised. This episode contains discussion of extreme violence against a family and the survival of a child under traumatic circumstances.
