This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Sellersville, Pennsylvania to discuss the case of Shane and Crystal Robinson, two parents living with their seven children in a rural trailer park. After a concerned neighbor called 911 after seeing two children breaking into an adjacent abandoned trailer, it's discovered that the Robinson family is hiding a dark secret within their double-wide... one filled with filth, vermin, and exotic wildlife.
