Sandra Sapaugh, "Hypnotic Statement" | MURDERISH Ep. 058

One woman risked life and limb to escape the grips of a predator. Her goal was simply to make it home to her children alive. There was no way she could have known that ensuring her attacker was found would reveal so much more, and likely save other lives. In working with authorities, this woman was able to uncover her attacker for what he truly was ...a serial killer. Her statements about the crime, however, were given under controversial circumstances. As such, the authenticity of her statements was called into question.
