In Season Two of her true crime series, The God Hook, journalist Carol Costello investigates the complex case of the Ohio Craigslist Killings—and in doing so, unearths the untold story of the crimes that preceded the murders—and the victims who’ve never received justice. Richard Beasley was convicted of murdering three men and attempting to kill a fourth in the fall of 2011, but before that heinous spree, authorities were building a human trafficking case against him.

Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner was found hidden under a bed on a cruise ship — in a cabin she shared with her own family. A younger sibling asleep feet above her. A stepbrother now designated a suspect. A stepmother invoking the Fifth Amendment. And a biological mother recording a viral thirteen-minute meltdown online, blaming everyone but herself.
This isn’t one tragedy — it’s the implosion of two families at the exact moment investigators are trying to reconstruct what happened in that tiny cabin.
Tonight, we break down what authorities are really dealing with:
— What it means when a minor is labeled a suspect.
— How keycard logs, cabin cameras, and Wi-Fi tracking narrow the timeline faster than anyone expects.
— Why concealment done quietly — while people slept — tells investigators something very specific.
— Why a parent invoking the Fifth raises red flags behind the scenes.
— And how constant public accusation from family members can contaminate witnesses and confuse the case.
To help us cut through the noise, we bring in retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer to walk through interview protocols with child witnesses, the meaning of a Fifth Amendment invocation in a juvenile death, and what investigators truly care about — evidence, not emotion.
This case is still evolving, but one thing is clear: the truth inside that cabin is going to come out.
Stay with us.
