    In part one of this gripping episode, we unravel the shocking case of Jordan Henning, who murdered his wife, Ashley Henning. Tressa uncovers how an anonymous source handed her explosive evidence that the trial and media did not expose—revealing Jordan’s dark secrets and double life.

    Ashley, a devoted mother and beloved woman, endured years of deception and abuse at the hands of her husband. But on June 26, 2023—her 37th birthday celebration—everything came to a devastating end. As Jordan’s aggression escalated, Ashley desperately tried to calm him and protect her children. Instead, his need for control led to her brutal murder, captured on the family's Nest camera system.

    Jordan fled the scene, weaving a web of lies to conceal the truth. At trial, his defense team pushed outrageous claims while the prosecution struggled, failing to secure the justice Ashley deserved. This raises a troubling question: Was this merely a failure of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, or was something more insidious—like an underlying bias—at play?
