Episode 299 - Fire & Fury – The Murders of Jerome and Dora Faulkner

An elderly couple known for their quiet lives and deep roots in North Carolina are found dead, setting off an investigation that stretches far beyond a single crime scene. What begins with an early-morning fire along a rural highway soon collides with a second act of violence nearly two hundred miles away.

As authorities follow the trail, familiar assumptions fall apart. An arrest brings answers, but also raises unsettling questions about what was planned, what was hidden, and how much more lay beneath the surface.
