About this episode

In December of 2000, a 31-year-old man headed out for a duck hunting trip on a Florida lake, and seemingly drowned, with his body believed to have been eaten by alligators. Years later, the case was reopened when his mother pointed out many inconsistencies, such as the fact that alligators wouldn’t have ravaged his body in the winter. Instead, something sinister was done to him by someone in his own circle. This is the murder of Mike Williams.
