From Nu Skin Wealth to a Horrific Murder | The Summer Roney Case

Last year, Hidden True Crime introduced you to Summer Roney—a vulnerable young woman whose brutal murder shocked those who heard her story. Now, we’re going deeper. In this episode, Lauren Matthias uncovers disturbing new developments surrounding Summer’s life, her abuse at the hands of Robert McKell, and the ongoing case against her accused killer, Jacob Johnson—a case that appears to be stalling in ways that raise serious concerns. From alleged smear campaigns and erased articles, to courtroom delays, judge recusals, and the shocking placement of a murder suspect in a facility meant for non-violent offenders, this story forces us to ask: is this just dysfunction… or something more? And perhaps most haunting of all—who is controlling Summer’s story, even after her death?
