"Twins on a Deadly Rampage"

For years, conspiracy theories swirl about these women, and this episode attempts to unpack the real story behind their inexplicable behavior.

"The Naked Man Behind the Mask"

A doorbell camera captures a masked intruder lurking outside an Alabama home on New Year's Eve. He's naked, except for a sock on his private parts, and a Ronald Reagan mask.

The video instantly goes viral and becomes the subject of jokes and rumors, but is this masked man potentially dangerous?

"Boy Stops Sister's Violent Kidnapping"

As the horrified grandmother runs after the car in a panic, the children, who are only 8 and 10 years old, frantically try to escape. The kidnapper latches onto the girls' hoodie and refuses to let them go. But the brave young boy does something heroic that will change everything.

"Mother & Daughter Fight for Their Lives"

A normal work night for a mother and daughter turns into a nightmare when an armed robber walks into their store in Oklahoma. Things take a frightening turn when the robber begins to violently attack them. Using the guns they keep in the store for emergency protection, the women find themselves in a desperate battle to save themselves, and each other.
