## Resource

This episode examines two distinct cases involving deception and violence. The first segment details the tragic murder of Nicole Ledger, a Texas mother who was stalked and assaulted by her obsessive ex-fiancé, Michael Adams, before she could testify against him. Despite fleeing and seeking police protection, Ledger was eventually located via a GPS tracker and killed by Adams, who was later convicted through DNA evidence found at the scene. The second report features an undercover investigation into Craig Sherf, a convicted felon posing as a medical professional to perform illegal Botox injections. Dubbed the "Botox bamboozler," Sherf operated an unlicensed clinic and provided dangerous medical treatments until being confronted by journalists. Together, these stories highlight the lethal consequences of domestic obsession and the public health risks posed by medical impostors.
