Rebecca Zahau Found Hanging: Murder or Suicide?

Rebecca Zahau's death was ruled a suicide by investigators twice, so why did a civil suit brought against her boyfriend's brother show that he killed her? This week, Savannah breaks down the incredibly twisted tale surrounding Rebecca Zahau's hanging.

Jonah's family, including his ex-wife, felt strongly that Rebecca was directly responsible for Max's accidental death. The next day, Jonah's brother Adam Shacknai reportedly found Rebecca hanging from a balcony, tied up and gagged, and a cryptic note was found etched on her door.
