About this episode

Josh Mankiewicz chats with Dennis Murphy about his episode, “The Road Trip.” In June 2015, renowned holistic doctor Teresa Sievers was found dead in her Florida home. Police received a tip that sent them across several states to find her killers, but they determined the mastermind was much closer to home. Dennis talks about the killers’ lengthy road trip to the scene of the crime and their intriguing stops along the way. And, Josh and Dennis discuss how one defendant ended up taking a plea deal and testifying against another defendant – his childhood best friend. Plus, Dennis plays a web-exclusive clip from his interview with defense attorney Elizabeth Parker and answers viewer questions about the episode.
