A family vacation at Pennsylvania’s Great Wolf Lodge turns into an unthinkable double homicide when 27-year-old Metallica Rose Harrison allegedly stabs her husband, Charles, and their 3-year-old son, Tristan, to death inside Room 2030 with kitchen knives packed from home. After draining her husband’s 401(k) to stretch their stay into a 22-day trip while their home utility bills went unpaid, Harrison phoned 911 reporting she had killed her family and "needs help dying." Nancy Grace and her panel of forensic and legal experts break down the latest twists in the case, including conflicting forensic reports surrounding the number of stab wounds inflicted on the toddler versus his father, disturbing claims from relatives that Harrison resented her young son and never wanted children, and the discovery of late-night surveillance footage showing the couple at the resort arcade just hours before the bodies were discovered.
