About this episode

In October of 2006, police responded to a call about someone jumping from the roof of a New Orleans hotel. When they arrived, they found a note in the man’s pocket, confessing to committing a horrific crime just streets away. But when police reported to the apartment in question, the circumstances of the crime were more shocking than they’d imagined. This is the story of Addie Hall and Zack Bowen.
