Summary

In October 1974, 19-year-old Arlis Perry stepped inside Stanford University's memorial church late one Saturday night to pray after an argument with her husband — and never came out. When a security guard found her body the next morning, detectives encountered one of the most disturbing crime scenes they had ever seen, with evidence suggesting the killing was deliberate, ritualistic, and deeply personal. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy traces Arlis's life in small-town North Dakota, her whirlwind move to California, and the investigation that quickly ran cold.
