In 2008, 72-year-old Josef Fritzl opened his front door to find a young woman unconscious in desperate need of medical attention. With her was a note from Josef's daughter, Elisabeth Fritzl, who had been missing for 24 years. This discovery and what comes after would reveal the darkest crime I've ever heard. I warn this at the beginning: if any type of crime is a trigger for you, it's likely in this episode. Proceed with caution.
