This week we cover two true crime cases in our first “Under the Microscope” episode. Two young women whose lives were tragically cut short in shocking acts of violence. Despite their different backgrounds and being from opposite sides of the world, both cases captivated public attention and exposed deep-rooted societal issues. Their stories share haunting similarities in the betrayal of trust and the devastating impact on their communities, leaving behind legacies that sparked calls for change and justice.
First, Kendra covers the gruesome murder of Abby Choi, a 28-year-old Hong Kong socialite and fashion icon. Her dismembered body was found in February 2023, shocking the city and making international headlines. We'll explore the twisted plot involving her ex-husband's family, financial disputes, and a makeshift "butcher shop." This horrifying case is a blend of glamour, greed, and unthinkable violence. Think Parasite meets Dexter.
Afterwards, Jessica takes us back to her home state of New Mexico. We explore the tragic event that unfolded at the Sunshine Theater in Albuquerque on July 16, 2003. Sixteen-year-old Marissa Mathy-Zvaifler's night out to see Atmosphere in concert took a dark turn, leading to a case that would shock the nation and change laws. We'll uncover how a seemingly ordinary venue became the site of a horrific crime, exposing critical flaws in the justice system.
