About this episode

The episode discusses the chilling story of John List, who murdered his family and evaded capture for nearly 20 years.

From the outside, the List family had it all - the house, the cars, the nice neighborhood. But behind the facade of riches was something much more sinister. John List, the family patriarch, lost his job and when he couldn't keep up with all the expenses, decided to end it all for everyone... except himself. In 1971, he carefully planned to murder his family and managed to elude law enforcement for nearly 20 years. It wasn't until his story was featured on an episode of 'America's Most Wanted', that a neighbor recognized him and notified the police, which ended his life on the run.
