In the Season 2 opener, A.C. takes you deep into one of the most controversial and debated theories in modern true crime: the Smiley Face Killers. For years, a pattern of young men disappearing and later being found dead in bodies of water has left communities grieving and investigators divided. Could these deaths be connected? Is there truly a sinister network targeting victims, or is it a case of tragic coincidences? Join us as we examine the evidence, explore the skepticism, and delve into the chilling possibility that a hidden truth might still be lurking beneath the surface.
