THE FAMILY received text messages from her cell phone saying she had moved to Jacksonville, Fla., they didn't believe it. Unable to reach her to discuss the messages, they contact the local authorities. The police soon discover Spence may have been fleeing an abusive relationship. Was her disappearing act the move of a desperate woman or something far more sinister? As this plot thickens, a high
STAKES game of cat and mouse will finally reveal the jaw-dropping truth.
At 9 p.m. ET, Fatal Attraction explores the case of Barry Odom who was found shot to death in the parking lot of his apartment complex. A nursing assistant and father who yearned to help everyone, Odom didn't appear to have an enemy in the world. His girlfriend, whom he had seen just minutes earlier, is overwhelmed with grief. But when police learn there was another woman in his life, they begin to suspect that jealousy could have played a role in his death. The deeper they dig into his personal life, the more questions they unearth... and the longer the list of potential suspects grows.
