Episode description

Sara and Danny bring us the story of John Darwin, a British teacher and prison officer who has believed to have died in a canoeing accident. They kick off with some background on him and his family before the "accident" and what lead him to fake his own death. They also cover how he went about his life after the faking, and how it all came crumbling down in Panama five years after.
