What this episode covers
The Lafferty case unveils a cryptic narrative surrounding brothers Dan and Ron Lafferty, once devout members of the LDS Church who splintered off to form their own religion, “the School of the Prophets.” Their descent into darkness led to the chilling murders of Brenda Lafferty and her 18-month-old daughter Erica in 1984 — under the guise of “divine revelation.” The following legal proceedings, including Ron's death sentence and Dan's life imprisonment, add layers to a tale fraught with mystery and intrigue, shedding light on the dangers of religious fanaticism following an unfathomable tragedy.
