We all know things are not always as they seem. From the outside, your neighbor or friend has a perfect life. We all know this from all the perfect Facebook posts we see. Oftentimes these people have secrets and the Shermans were no different.
We are going to Niantic Connecticut, a small northeastern town with a population just under 3000. In 1985, a horrific tragedy would rattle this quaint community as murder came for one of their own. It would be years before the killer would be brought to justice, all courtesy of a movie. Join Jen and Cam on this episode of Our True Crime Podcast as we discuss ‘A Very Chilly Cold Case: Ellen Sherman.’
