Every witness had a story to tell. Not all of them lived to tell it.


The Franklin scandal was never just about a single credit union in Omaha. In tonight's episode, we follow the investigation as it begins to pull at threads that lead far beyond Nebraska- and into the lives of those brave enough to speak.


From the lingering mystery of one of the countries biggest disappearances to the chilling testimonies of victims like Paul Bonacci, this chapter reveals a world where power protects predators and truth is met with intimidation, discrediting, and even death. State Senator Loran Schmit's push for answers, sparked by Carol Stitt's alarming reports, sets the stage for Gary Caradori's investigation- one that put a target square on his back.


Through interviews, court documents, and evidence once destined for daylight, we uncover how Franklin's darkest secrets were buried by an organized and calculated cover-up. And with each revelation, one question grows louder: was this really just an Omaha scandal, or part of something much larger, and far darker, than anyone imagined.
