Hell in the Heartland: What Happened to Ashley and Lauria

On the night of December 30, 1999 a fire rips through the Freeman family home in Welch, OK. Four people are in the house that night, but only two bodies are found - Kathy and Danny Freeman. Investigators Jax Miller and Sarah Caliean discover that there's much more to the story than they first thought.

After digging into the 1999 murders of Kathy and Danny Freeman and the disappearance of their daughter Ashley and her best friend Lauria Bible, Jax and Sarah discover that this story is far more complicated than it appears. Only a year prior to the fire, the Freemans' son, Shane, was killed by a deputy of the Craig County Sheriff's Office, inciting a year long conflict between the Freemans and local law enforcement, and raising suspicion that the Freeman murder is a police cover-up. Jax and Sarah explore all possible leads in the months following the fire, and reveal a string of serial murderers and drug kingpins that may have had a hand in this case.

Years of dead ends and unsuccessful searches have left the Bible and the Freeman families in utter despair. But they've never given up hope. After a new sheriff takes over the investigation, the case is blown wide open when he discovers a box of evidence that leads to what the families have been waiting years for an arrest.
