DESCRIPTION:
(from Netflix's press release, August 2024) The story here is thrust into motion in the early hours of June 25th, 1979, when the affluent Main Line area of Philadelphia was rocked by the brutal slaying of English teacher Susan Reinert. The case, which became one of the most infamous in the region's history, began when Susan's naked body was discovered stuffed in the trunk of her car in a Harrisburg motel parking lot. Her children, Karen and Michael, were missing, presumed dead, although their bodies were never found. The shocking nature of the murders quickly captivated public attention and drew intense media scrutiny, highlighting significant flaws in the criminal justice system, including issues of evidence handling and prosecutorial ethics.
