NBC NEWS
About this episode

Josh Mankiewicz and Andrea Canning discuss Andrea’s episode, “Noises in the Night.” In November 2016, 16-year-old cheerleader Emma Walker was found dead in her Knoxville, Tennessee home. An investigation revealed she was killed by a bullet shot from outside her house that pierced the wall of her bedroom.  Andrea and Josh talk about the people who helped investigators bring the killer to justice – his own friends – and reflect on what parents can do to protect their teens from toxic relationships. Later, Andrea shares a podcast-exclusive clip from her interview with two of Emma’s friends. Plus, Josh and Andrea answer viewer and listener questions from social media.
