Manage episode 519011639 series 3656799
Murders of Kylen Schulte & Crystal Turner (August 2021, Utah) is a true-crime documentary story set against the haunting beauty of Moab’s red rock canyons and the La Sal Mountains. It follows the real-life double homicide of newlyweds Kylen Schulte and Crystal Turner, whose disappearance in August 2021 shocked a close-knit desert community. Told in a cinematic, forensic tone, the narrative moves from the moment their friends realize something is wrong to the slow, methodical investigation that exposes fear, loss, and the fragile line between freedom and danger in America’s wilderness.
Through police records, search efforts, and the memories of those who loved them, the story examines how two lives rooted in kindness and simplicity became the focus of one of Utah’s most tragic modern cases. Each chapter reveals new layers — the desperate search, the community’s grief, and finally, the confirmation that the killer was someone they once knew. With restraint and realism, the story captures not only the investigation’s tension but also the emotional cost left behind.
The tone is human, cinematic, and investigative — blending forensic detail with quiet moments of reflection.
