Then, we shift to Port Lincoln, Australia, where a former Beauty and the Geek reality star has been charged with the brutal murder and dismemberment of her boyfriend—just one day after his birthday.

An exclusive interview with a convicted killer, which I've done many in the past throughout my career, but this one lead to an unexpected confession and details of the "Why" and "How" he did the act, plus how he intentionally sent detectives on a wild hunt for a made-up serial killer to buy himself two years of freedom. He was convicted without a confession. David Hoshaw killed his fiancee Angelique, 35 and her mom Vonda Goyena 74, minutes apart in the middle of the night because he wanted to be with another woman. Mom and daughter had a special bond, "Angel" was the youngest of 4 siblings, she was her mom's caretaker and that's why they lived together. Angel was planning to marry Hoshaw when he decided to end her life and her mom's instead of simply breaking up with her.  Follow Killer Genes with Melissa on Youtube for more.
