This week’s Headline: the case that’s been all over your feed since the Netflix documentary dropped. Mica Miller alleged years of emotional, physical, sexual, and spiritual abuse by her husband, a charismatic pastor in Myrtle Beach. She filed for divorce. She told people close to her she was afraid for her life. Two days after he was served with her papers, she was dead. And her husband has a lot to say about it.

Twenty-three years after the fire, Jennie Sodder opened an envelope with no return address and found a photo of a grown man with her son's face. On the back: "Louis Sodder." In the final part of our 3-part series on the Sodder children, Katie Ring covers the mystery bones pulled from the cellar, a drunken claim in a Texas town, and a long-buried secret that could change everything.
