One autumn night in 1997, 18-year-old Anastasia WitbolsFeugen is found brutally murdered, her body discovered in a place meant for eternal rest. But nothing about this case would prove peaceful or simple. Investigative journalist Leah Rothman peels back the layers of a haunting case that defies everything you thought you knew about murder investigations. Does it all come down to one recorded phone call or an eyewitness who may not have seen a thing? Who killed this promising young woman and why? Who is telling the truth and who has a motive to lie? This season's hit podcast promises a heart-stopping journey through a teen tragedy so complex, so twisted, that each episode will leave you questioning: who is The Real Killer?
