517: Jewels and Jinxes (from "The Real Murders of Orange County")

When 68 year old Mario Hernandez didn't show up for family dinner in March of 2005, his family knew something was terribly wrong. Mario was a family man. Nothing would have kept him from that dinner. And when the police refuse to investigate--he's a grown man, after all, he can go missing if he wants EYE ROLL RAGE EMOJI--the family takes the investigation into their own hands. What unfolds is a bizarre tale of greed, CURSES THAT NEVER HAPPENED, a killer's extremely dysfunctional family--hoooo boy are they taking the fun OUT of dysfunctional--and a supermarket employee break room THAT IS FOR EMPLOYEES ONLY.
