Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan: Televised Confessesion: 'I Killed My Parents, Buried Them in Backyard'

Franz and Theresia Kraus are a retired couple.

In 2025, he will be 92, and she will be 83. The problem is that nobody has seen them in several years. Their Social Security checks are automatically deposited, and their adult son, Lorenz Kraus, tends to other matters for them.

After years of attempting to contact the couple without success, the social security office asks the police to do a "welfare check" on Franz and Theresia Kraus.

Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack take a look at what happened when police do the welfare check and how their "loving son" Lorenz Kraus ends up on local tv confessing to killing his parents and burying their bodies in the backyard.
