Welcome to Episode 1 of Investigated!
This is the first episode of a multi series story focusing on the Pearson Family Murders. These family members were Sonya's childhood friends who were murdered by the head of the family "James Arthur Pearson".

This first episode will provide the details of how Sonya and her family were neighbors of the Pearson family, with fond memories of the days spent with Marianne and learn about her mother Pauline and sister Paula. 

To set the stage, what life was like in 1968-1969 and what seemed to be the California dream. 

How a simple trending video stitch on TikTok  gained so much attention that it gave Sonya just the right fuel to finally get this story told, in her words, by her own experiences.

This story has many twists and turns and you will not believe the pursuit of leads, clues and dead ends to find answers to apprehend James Arthur Pearson.
