True Crime with Kendall Rae

Initially, her boyfriend was suspected as they had been in a fight, but his FitBit data showed that he was elsewhere during the murder. That's when they realized someone else's DNA was on Nicole's body.

Sarah Stern was a 19-year-old college student living in Neptune City, New Jersey, when, in December 2016, she suddenly vanished. Her disappearance sparked immediate concern, where it was unknown whether she took her life, ran away, or was met with foul play. Through speaking with her best friend, Liam McAtasney, investigators thought it might be plausible that she took her life or ran away, considering he was telling them how unhappy Sarah was and that she was planning on fleeing to Canada to get away from her father. However, a few weeks after she disappeared, a friend of Liam’s came forward to the police that he believed Liam may have killed her and staged her disappearance. A sting operation was conducted, and within hours, they retrieved a videotaped confession from Liam, who explained, in detail, how he murdered Sarah with the help of his friend Preston over some money that Sarah had found a few months prior. This confession led to the arrests of both Liam and Preston, and Preston ultimately agreed to a deal where he would testify against Liam in exchange for a lesser sentence. Both men are behind bars, and unfortunately, Sarah’s body has never been recovered from the water where they tossed her body.

In April 2018, David Tronnes called 911, yelling and crying that he had just found his wife Shanti dead in their bathtub. He said she must have slipped and fallen while he was out of the house that morning. However, Shanti was dry, as was the tub, and none of David’s story was adding up. Medical examiners were able to very obviously see that Shanti had injuries consistent with strangulation and blunt force trauma–not from falling.
