On the 9th of August 2025, Kim Thompson was found unresponsive in her bed by her husband Michael. All the police and paramedics entered the house, it looked as though Kim had taken her own life.

But Kim's friends and family knew this wasn't the case... and they suspected Michael of killing her. And as the police started to gather evidence, they noticed that Michael's ex-partner had died in suspicious circumstances.... 25 years earlier.

This is REAL.
