After two months, Briana and Morgan are back breaking down the testimony everyone had been waiting for since The Canal Murders trial began: Bryan Patrick Miller’s ex-wife Amy. While on the stand, Amy reveals disturbing and violent sexual fantasies he performed on her, what their roles were in the marriage, and the confession he made to her about another girl he attacked, but was never charged for. It’s a pivotal moment in the trial, so what happens next?

He confessed to 19 murders. He worked his way up to become the underboss of the Gambino crime family in New York. He ratted out Mafia boss John Gotti to the government, and witness protection brought him to Arizona. Now, he’s sharing mob secrets including details surrounding JFK’s assassination, how they pulled off high-profile hits, and where his life and legacy in U.S. history stands now. This is the story of how “Sammy the Bull” became one of the most prolific Mafia hitmen to ever live.

A twist in the case brings an unexpected person to trial for the murders. Multiple people stand trial for their involvement, but their consequences range from dying in prison to being exonerated and set free. Forty years later, is "The Last Hitman" put to death for the Redmond family slayings?

Investigators learn the man who ordered the hit against Pat Redmond and his family in Phoenix had ties to the Mafia in Chicago and Las Vegas. Turns out, he was working on an illicit deal in Las Vegas, but needed an unsuspecting place to funnel it all through. That’s where Pat Redmond comes into play.

On New Year’s Eve heading into 1981, the Redmond family was getting ready for their holiday party at their Phoenix, Arizona home. When three unknown men showed up, including a police officer, the family let them in. That’s when everything took a horrific turn. With multiple people dead from an execution-style hit, the investigation began to figure out who these men were and why the Redmond family was targeted.

On New Year’s Eve 1980, a Phoenix family is getting ready to host their holiday party, when three strangers show up at their door, and one of them dressed as a police officer. Everything takes a turn when the three men tie up the family members and shoot them execution style. However, one of the three survived. It turned out that the murders weren't random at all, but a deliberate plan orchestrated by the Mafia, and the corrupt ties spun a complicated web between Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Chicago. Three men were sent to death row for the killings, but only one is still alive today: Murray Hooper. Now, a court decides if "The Last Hitman" will finally be put to death in Arizona 40 years later. The new limited series of True Crime Arizona premieres January 30.

Because this trial is so unconventional, there’s been a lot of time off and sporadic testimony through the holidays. But there were two key witnesses with critical information about Bryan Patrick Miller: his former mentor, and his former girlfriend. Host Briana Whitney and Chief Investigative Reporter Morgan Loew discuss and analyze what’s happened over the past month, the changes they just learned about how the rest of this trial is going to go, and when we expect a verdict.

In December 2010, 27-year-old roommates and friends Nicole Glass and Melissa Mason were found strangled to death in their Phoenix home near 42nd St and Thomas Road. Shortly after, family and authorities discovered Melissa was newly pregnant at the time. The crime scene provided little-to-no answers as to who did this or how it happened, but technology may change that today. Twelve years later, these unsolved double murders have police increasing reward money for any answers that can lead to an arrest.

In 2016, 10-year-old Jesse Wilson went missing from his Buckeye, AZ home. His adoptive mother, Crystal Wilson, said he likely climbed out the window. But when his remains were found in the desert in 2018, his disappearance became a homicide investigation, and Wilson moved out of state and stopped cooperating with authorities. Years later, police announced her arrest in connection to Jesse’s death. But it’s NOT a murder charge. Jesse’s biological family has mixed emotions, and questions remain about how the state could have better protected him.

In 2004, an armored car guard was shot dead outside a Phoenix movie theater by a man who fled with the $56,000 the guard had collected from the weekend movie receipts. Police discovered the suspect on the run is Jason Derek Brown, a Southern California man who was in debt. They also learned that Brown had been casing the area and following the armed guard’s move. It’s been 18 years and Brown has never been found, so why was he just removed off the FBI’s Top 10 Most Wanted Fugitive List? SEE MORE INFO HERE

On November 16th 2022, the Hudgens family of five was found dead inside their Phoenix home. Wife Marla Hudgens, her 3-year-old son Christopher, and her 6-month-old twin girls Faye and Gwen were all found with trauma on their bodies, and her husband Jasen Hudgens was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Police believe Jasen killed his family before taking his own life. Time may have been ticking down to the house exploding, because first responders found a disconnected gas line in the home with propane tanks on the property. The Hudgens family seemingly had everything going for them: Beautiful kids, successful careers, and a lot of community involvement. The question is: What went wrong?

For the first time ever, we hear the Zombie Hunter's voice. After a break in the trial, prosecutors come back with some crucial days of testimony and evidence, including Bryan Patrick Miller’s interrogation video after he was arrested for the Canal Murders in 2015. His former roommate also took the stand, who described the moment he realized an item found at the Melanie Bernas' murder scene was something he had seen in their apartment before.

In week two of the trial, we learn how police coordinated an undercover operation at a restaurant to get Bryan Patrick Miller’s DNA to see if it was a match to the DNA left at the Canal Murders scenes. Testimony this week ended with the first victim Miller stabbed as a teenager, detailing her experience when she was attacked. The prosecution says this establishes a pattern of violence before Angela Brosso and Melanie Bernas were killed.

In the first week of the death penalty trial for Bryan Patrick Miller, the prosecution set up their case that DNA at the crime scenes matched Miller’s, he had fantasies about killing people, and nobody but him cut these girls’ lives short. Meanwhile, the defense is arguing for a “not guilty by reason of insanity” verdict, claiming Miller’s autism and dissociative disorders made him insane at the time of the murders. For the first time in nearly 30 years, new details were revealed about the horrific injuries to Angela Brosso and Melanie Bernas when they were killed, and what the killer did with their bodies post-mortem.

Thirty years after the infamous Phoenix “Canal Murders,” the man and comic-book character accused of the killings stands trial. But Bryan Patrick Miller’s trial is unlike most - was he insane at the time, and could that let him walk free? Deciding his fate won’t be up to a jury. Hosts Briana Whitney and Morgan Loew break down why this trial is so non-traditional and what the "Zombie Hunter” is facing in a courtroom in the coming months.

In 2016, Krystal Mitchell and her boyfriend, Raymond “R.J.” McLeod headed from Phoenix to San Diego for vacation with friends. Everything takes a shocking turn when Krystal is found dead in an apartment, with Raymond nowhere to be found. Evidence pointed authorities to identity him as the prime suspect, but McLeod led the U.S. Marshalls on a 6-year international manhunt. Finally in 2022, a tip leads authorities to El Salvador, where they find Raymond McLeod, who is finally behind bars and charged with Krystal’s murder. But the person who played the biggest role in the investigation and his capture? Krystal’s mother. Click here to see photos from the case

Briana and Serjio receive a new, unexpected tip from a former homicide detective that has them investigating more than they anticipated. Everyone interviewed this season reveals where they believe Robert Fisher is, and if he’s dead or alive, based on the new information our team uncovered during their investigation.

Herb Greenbeck presents a new theory of where Robert Fisher went and what he did after the murders, based on strange questions he was asking during their camping trip together just weeks prior. Investigators share what they struggle with most trying to solve this case, which leads us back to the Fisher family home and their Scottsdale neighborhood.

Less than a mile from where Robert Fisher’s car was found in the woods are miles and miles of underground caves. It’s thought he may have been hiding in them at one point, and written evidence found in one of them suggests that may have been the case. We investigate written messages, and dive into the caves ourselves to find out if living in them for some time is realistic. At the same time, a tip from 2004 in Canada still perplexes people with some of the most unusual investigative techniques ever used. We get to the bottom of it. See photos and exclusive content here

The investigation takes our crew into the woods where Robert Fisher’s car was found as they prepare to head underground for a search. Briana and Serjio assemble a full team made up of a retired detective on the case, the lead cave searcher at the time Fisher disappeared, and experienced spelunkers, who make realizations about what happened in the woods back in 2001. Meanwhile, a bombshell tip from Mexico shakes up the case – with pictures that shock detectives. See the photos & more exclusive content here
