Valentine's Day: The killer left while her parents were resuscitating her.

Valentine's Day: The killer left while her parents were trying to revive her.

On Valentine's Day in 2007, a woman was murdered in her condominium in Carlsbad, California. Her parents, upon arriving, found the door secured with a chain that she never used, and upon entering, discovered the lifeless body of their daughter. How could the killer escape while they were trying to revive her?

In this episode, we examine the brutal murder of Jodine Saron, a 39-year-old woman with developmental disabilities, in her own home. We reconstruct the timeline of events and the moment her parents found her, unaware that the attacker was still in the condominium. What architectural details of the place allowed for this silent escape?
