On August 12, 1997, 20-year-old Ricky Cowles, was found lying on the floor of his home barely alive. A local drug dealer was arrested for his murder, but the case didn't sit right with his family who believed the murderer was still at large. Then we cover the story of Jacob Stockdale. He showed disturbing behaviors on the early-thousands reality show "Wife Swap" only to commit murder a decade later. Police and the public then look to his 30 minutes of fame hoping to find clues.
