Making A Mistake

Upon closer investigation, cops were also able to corroborate the court’s claims. Steven’s mom never had plans of giving up her parental rights. In fact, she had contacted the police for welfare check the day she had Pladl pick up Bennett to see Katie. She simply didn’t realize the sinister plans he already had brewing.

Looking Deeper

Police looked deeper and realized that the son had been killed first, as what they suspected at the beginning. Then, he went for his wife and her father before finally ending his own life. He planned to get her before she reached New York, and before leaving, he lied to his mother telling her that he was coming back.
