Is it Khloe? Is it Owen? Is it Sophie? Where TF the catfish??
This week we're discussing the true crime documentary, "Unknown Number: The High School Catfish." Lauryn Licari is a sweet girl just trying to navigate her way through the early days of high school, playing sports, and her first serious relationship, when she begins receiving harassing texts from an unfamiliar number. After going quiet for about a year, the texts start back, and are crueler and more frequent than ever. Lauryn, along with her boyfriend, their parents, the school principal, superintendent, and sheriff, try to figure out who is the person behind these texts and, after a few false leads, end up having to reach out to the FBI for help. Finally able to crack the case, the reveal would send shock-waves through their entire tight-knit community.
"Unknown Number: The High School Catfish" is available to stream on Netflix.
