About this episode

33-year-old Scott Hartman lived in Williamsburg, Indiana, when he was charged with killing his parents. Initially, the authorities thought his mother died of natural causes. Scott said that his father, Brian, had taken a trip. But all of his stories quickly fell apart.

Join Mike and Gibby as they talk about Brian Scott Hartman. Scott told many different stories about what happened to his parents. It seemed as though Scott was coming up with different stories to cover the known facts and evidence. But his stories were so outlandish that they defied belief. What would the jury believe?
