On July 14, 2002, a 43-year-old woman is found dead in an alley in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. The mother of eight?s passing isn?t clear, but no foul play is suspected to be involved. It?s not until nine months later that law enforcement receives a disturbing tip from a member of the public, who has discovered something horrifying. Detectives begin to join the dots leading them not just to the killer, but the full gruesome magnitude of what he has done in the months since her death.

On October 9, 2012, 19-year-old Elizabeth ?Lizzi? Marriott leaves a note for her uncle and aunt. Although Lizzi is a Massachusetts native, she is living with her family in Chester, New Hampshire while she attends a nearby university to pursue her degree in marine biology. In the note, Lizzi explains that she is going to a friend?s place after her evening class. Lizzi is never seen again. Two days later, Lizzi?s friend whose place she was going to, 18-year-old Kat McDonough, is questioned by the police. Kat claims Lizzi did not arrive at her apartment that night.

In an eleven hour interview with the authorities, Seth explains his version of events- which are disturbing, senseless and heart breaking. In episode 305, Jac and Alexis unravel the web of lies surrounding the sexual assault and murder of Lizzi Marriott.
