In her new investigative crime series MK Confidential, Megyn is taking a closer look at some of the most riveting mysteries and true crime cases that continue to captivate us decades after those involved declare “case closed.”
First, she took a deep dive into the haunting murder of JonBenét Ramsey. Next, she told the story of not-so-perfect husband Claus von Bülow and interviewed the man who mounted the infamous defense that allowed him to go free. Last week, she reexamined the 2001 disappearance of Washington, D.C., intern Chandra Levy amid an affair with a congressman. Get caught up on those episodes here.
Beginning tonight, Megyn is bringing you the story of family annihilator John List as you’ve never heard it before.
On the night of December 7, 1971, Westfield, New Jersey, police walk into a darkened 19-room mansion where classical music has played for weeks. In the ballroom, four bodies are side by side on sleeping bags, arranged like a cross. A fifth is upstairs. It is the most shocking crime this quiet town, with no murders in eight years, had ever seen.
The victims are a family – wife Helen, grandmother Alma, and three teenagers – all shot weeks earlier, then laid out with precise care.
One person is missing: the father, John List. He is not among the dead, and he is nowhere in the house. Is he a sixth victim, or the man who did this and vanished?
In this five-episode arc, Megyn goes deeper into the horrifying crime and asks the questions of what happed as only she can.
MK Confidential: The Annihilator premieres Monday, August 10, at 9pm ET on The Megyn Kelly Show podcast feed and YouTube channel. Subscribe on YouTube to never miss an episode.
