    🚨 Parricide Case Revisited 🚨
    In this gripping episode, we cover the strange and convoluted case of Kim Shin-hye, a woman convicted of killing her father in 2000. What started as a confession of revenge for sexual abuse later spirals into claims of coercion and police misconduct. This chilling case has captivated headlines again with a retrial set for 2025.

    Tune in for an in-depth look at the case, the statistics behind parricide, and the ongoing fight for justice.
