Summary

It’s a parent’s worst nightmare: hearing your child screaming for help and not being able to get to them. When Mary Jean Pearle’s ex-husband, John Battaglia, wanted to punish her following their divorce, he shot and killed their two young daughters while he forced her to listen on the other end of a phone call.
