Together with C.J., host of Beyond the Rainbow: True Crimes of the LGBTQ, we dive into two heart-wrenching cases where friendships turned deadly. The murders of Missy Avila and Skylar Neese are the ultimate betrayal, each one a tragic tale of trust shattered by jealousy, deceit, and revenge.
Missy Avila, a bright and promising teenager, was brutally murdered by two supposed friends—victims of a toxic friendship gone horribly wrong. Her case remains a disturbing reminder of how close-knit bonds can unravel in an instant, ending in violence.
Skylar Neese’s story is equally harrowing. Lured into a deadly trap by her best friends, Skylar’s brutal murder stunned a community and left behind an endless trail of unanswered questions. As the truth slowly came to light, it was revealed that betrayal had been festering beneath the surface, ultimately culminating in Skylar's tragic death.
Join us as we explore the dark side of "frenemy" relationships, unraveling the motives behind these heinous acts and the lasting consequences they left on the families and communities involved. These are not just stories of murder—they are stories of friendship turned fatal
