In 2013, a young man by the name of Kendrick Johnson is discovered deceased in his high school gymnasium.
The way in which he's found is extremely odd, he was trapped upside down in a rolled up gym mat.
The police and medical examiners office would be very quick to call this just a 'Tragic accident'.
The family of Kendrick Johnson weren't buying it, there were just too many issues in this lack luster investigation. As they began their own independent investigation the evidence began to mount that this was no accident and suspicions began to grow that Kendricks death was in fact a murder, one that had the FBI at the center of it.

In 1964 Catherine Genovese was attacked 100 yards from her home by a knife wielding man, he stabbed her to death and then ejaculated on her body.
Reports would say that 38 people witnessed the attack, one man even shouted at Winston Moseley to 'leave that girl alone'. Yet no-one called the police or went to help her.
The shock from the crime would cause changes to be made to the NYPD's 911 service as well as have psychologists studying what is now known as the 'Bystander Effect'.
