About this episode

The episode discusses the tragic case of Rachel Hansen, who was shot in her home under mysterious circumstances.

Please consider supporting Rachel's Rescue at https://rachelsrescue2022.com/ On June 4, 2022, 19-year-old Rachel Hansen called 911 from her apartment in Gilbert, Arizona, and told the dispatcher that someone had broken in and shot her while she was sleeping. Just minutes later, first responders found Rachel critically injured on the floor of her bathroom. She was rushed to the hospital, but despite hours of emergency surgery, she did not survive. To everyone who knew Rachel, the shooting made no sense. She was a successful young entrepreneur and a beloved daughter, sister, and fiancée who had her entire future ahead of her. She had no known enemies, no involvement in criminal activity, and no obvious reason anyone would want to hurt her...
