About this episode

The episode explores the eerily similar murders of Barbara Nantais and Claire Hough, both found near Torrey Pines Beach six years apart.

Barbara Nantais in 1978 and Claire Hough in 1984, though separated by 6 years, were both found brutally murdered and within yards of the same spot at Torrey Pines Beach. The cases are eerily similar but no clear link to the two leave many questions still waiting for answers.
