About this episode

In November 2010, two men attacked Paul Skinner and Mara Skinner inside their home in Yale, Michigan. Paul died from multiple stab wounds, but Mara survived. The attack was orchestrated by their adopted daughter, Tia Skinner. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Tia Skinner. By most accounts, Tia grew up in a loving environment after she and her brother were adopted by their aunt and uncle. Many people said Paul and Mara treated them no differently than their two biological children. So what went wrong to cause Tia to recruit two men to enter their home at night and murder the Skinners? The details are shocking.
