Unmasking the Models Inc Murderer | The Case of Paige Birgfeld | UNSEEN

“Where should I bury a body?” - On June 28, 2007, single mom Paige Birgfeld goes on a date with her high school sweetheart, but when she doesn’t return home that night, her father, Frank, drops everything to find her, launching a massive search across Grand Junction, Colorado. 3 days later, investigators find Paige’s car on fire in an abandoned parking lot, but the missing mom is still nowhere to be found. However, investigators uncover something sinister in the ashes: a double life Paige had kept secret for years, and as things come to light, many suspects emerge, but Frank refuses to give up, even when everyone else does. What he uncovers will haunt the small town, revealing a terrifying killer hidden in plain sight, and set the stage for long-awaited justice. - Credits Written, directed & edited by Alexandre Gendron Research by Bianca Yzabelle Tan Voiceover by William Akana Produced by Alexandra Salois & Salim Sader - Sources Getty Images 48 Hours: The Secret Life of Paige Birgfeld, CBS Interactive, 2017. 20/20: If I Can’t Have You, ABC, ABC Entertainment, 2021.
