It's callers being recorded and may be monitored. They are you sitting down? Yeah? You don't think any left for me after I tell you this, because he's not a good story. But you need to know him. I called them and he let go down to the theater on the Bay and I had my dad done well. He loaded it and when I took him up into the attic, I shot him two times in the back of the head. Welcome to sleuth. I'm Linda Sawyer. I've been covering murder trials for most of my career, but nothing has grabbed

me like the case of double murderer Daniel Wozniak. It was a beautiful sunny southern California Friday in May when Daniel Wozniak decides, in order to finance his honeymoon, he's gonna go ahead and shoot his friends and dismember them for their Money's going on, sir, there's a what a dead body? Are you sure, sir? Does your son know who it is? Okay, we're downing people, sir. I've got someone on the way. Okay, I'm just going to get information from you. Are right? When I first heard about

this case, it was about this musical theater kid. He was a local talent, and most of the community productions cast him as the lead, so he had this following and ultimately a lot of people thought they knew him. He's just this happy, go lucky, goofy, friendly guy who you know, didn't have his act together, you know. I literally I just saw him as this, this sweet kid who you know, trying to make something, doing his best.

And so when I learned about him for the first time, I said, how could this be that a musical theater geek could in fact commit these heinous crimes that you're reading about, and that these theater owners were telling me about it just, oh my gosh. One of my daughters could been opposite Daniel Wazniak and could have been kissing him in a performance, in a role, and that just horrified me. I mean, I always felt that it was a safe haven for my children, and so it really

struck me on a personal cord. And that is why kick in the reporter in me, and I'm like, there are just so many questions I have that need answers, and so this odyssey that I've been on for two years has really been all about not only answering the questions from me on a personal level, but helping these victims families, helping them understand what really happened to their

loved ones. That hoping that the rest of the people involved are ultimately found guilty of the crimes that they committed as well, because it wasn't just Daniel Wisniac, It just wasn't be sure to follow Sleuth launching this summer August nine on i Heart Radio or wherever you subscribe to podcasts.
