A YouTuber returns after a six-month hiatus and shares a recent case, the murder of Jessica Lewis, 35, and Austin Wenner, 27. The case begins with a group of teenagers using the Rando Náutica app, which gives them coordinates to a location where they find a suitcase. Upon opening it, they discover two dismembered bodies, later identified as Jessica and Austin.
The investigation initially focuses on the teenagers but quickly clears them of any involvement. The police then investigate the app and its creators, but again find no connection. The case remains unsolved until August 19, when the murderer is identified as Michael Lee Dot Lee, the owner of the house where Jessica and Austin lived.
Michael had been having problems with the couple over rent payments and had a history of abuse. He is convicted of two counts of second-degree murder and sentenced to prison.
