About this episode

This episode examines the controversial murder case of Kenzie Houk and the implications of the investigation that followed.

Just weeks before she was due to give birth to her son, 26-year-old Kenzie Houk was found murdered in her Pennsylvania home with a shotgun wound to the back of her head. Her unborn son, Christopher, died with her. What followed was one of the most controversial murder investigations in modern true crime history. Within hours, police arrested Kenzie's 11-year-old future stepson, Jordan Brown, accusing him of carrying out an unthinkable crime. The case would divide a community, spark national headlines, and ultimately raise serious questions about the investigation itself. In this episode, we examine the life of Kenzie Houk, the evidence that led investigators to focus on a child, the years-long legal battle that followed, and the unanswered questions that remain more than 15 years later. Most importantly, we remember Kenzie and the future she never got the chance to live.
