This week, we are revisiting the interesting case of Scott and Yarmila Falater. On January 16, 1997, Scott brutally murdered Yarmila in the backyard of their Arizona home while their kids were asleep upstairs. The kick is… he doesn’t remember doing it. Or so he says. His defense? Sleepwalking! Listen in to see how you’ll side. Was he sleepwalking? Did he have a psychotic break? Or is Scott just another calculated, cold-blooded killer?
