Ep 13 - Deadly Delusions: The Murder of Sophie Lionnet

London, England. September 20, 2017. Ouissem Medouni and Sabrina Kouider were not particularly well-liked by their neighbours on Wimbledon Park Road. They were inconsiderate, often leaving trash outside of their home for days and blocking their neighbours' driveways with their expensive cars. But while their antics could be irritating, they weren't that big of a deal. The couple tended to keep to themselves. One day in mid-September 2017, however, they were up to something that their neighbors just couldn't ignore. They had built a bonfire that was raging out of control, and it smelled terrible. Firefighters soon arrived at the scene, but no one could have prepared them for the horrifying discovery they would make.
