About this episode
One morning, a 40-year-old mother named Marlene Warren was having breakfast with her son and his friends when there was an unexpected knock at the door of her Palm Beach, Florida home

Marlene opened up the front door to see a clown standing on her front doorstep. The clown was holding a basket of flowers and 2 balloons. She excitedly reached out to grab the gifts when the clown took out a gun and shot Marlene point-blank in the face. The shooter then calmly walked back to their car & drove away...

After this, a search ensued. There was a KILLER CLOWN on the loose. A Florida detective said this was the most bizarre case he had ever seen in his career. Who did this to Marlene?
