About this episode
When a homeless woman in Anchorage finds a discarded SD card, she hopes it holds music. Instead, she uncovers something far more disturbing - graphic videos documenting the torture and murder of a woman later identified as 30-year-old Kathleen Henry. The footage is so brutal even seasoned detectives struggle to comprehend it. But it’s not just a one-time horror - it’s the calling card of a serial predator hiding in plain sight.
