Summary

In this chilling episode, we dive into the tragic and senseless murder of 16-year-old Skylar Neese, a bright and promising honor student from West Virginia. Skylar was last seen sneaking out of her bedroom window on July 6, 2012—never to return home. As her desperate parents searched for answers, Skylar’s so-called best friends, Sheila Eddy and Rachel Shoaf, played the part of concerned friends, even assisting in the search.Months later, a shocking confession revealed the horrifying truth: Skylar’s disappearance was not a runaway case, but a cold-blooded murder planned by the two girls she trusted most. Their chilling motive? They simply "didn’t want to be friends with her anymore."
