"MK Confidential" examines the story of Casey Anthony. It all starts with a certified-mail notice that sits unnoticed on a pink front door for days— eventually leading to an impounded Pontiac Sunfire with a stench oh-so-familiar to Casey’s former deputy sheriff father. George Anthony’s granddaughter Caylee hasn't been seen in over a month.Megyn reconstructs the night Casey’s mother, Cindy, makes three separate 911 calls in ninety minutes — the first about a stolen car, the last about a smell she can't explain — all while her daughter Casey sits in the next room insisting Caylee is just fine. Casey takes detectives to an empty apartment, a job she hasn’t worked at in two years, and lies about having a nanny named Zenaida whom she says has Caylee. Behind it all is a woman fluent in lies, a pregnancy nobody quite believed, and a mother who keeps choosing not to look too closely. This is Episode 1 of the Casey Anthony story.Home Title Lock: Go to https://hometitlelock.com/megyn and use promo code MEGYN to get a FREE title history report and a FREE TRIAL of their Triple Lock ProtectionLean: Discover why LEAN is becoming the choice for real weight‑loss results—shop now at https://TAKELEAN.com use code KELLYFollow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKellyTwitter: https://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShowInstagram: https://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShowFacebook: https://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShowFind out more information at: https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

With her killer in custody, Sherri’s family watches at trial, sentencing, and early parole hearings to keep her off the streets.

Then, when it seems her parole is on the line, she flips, and begins revealing details drip-by-drip about the night she took Sherri’s life.

“MK Confidential” opens on a mother and daughter enjoying pizza and sodas outside of a California Costco. A distant man looks on. The mother polishes off her soda and chucks the cup into the trash as they leave. Within seconds, the man closes the gap to the trash can and slips the cup into a manila envelope. He is an “operator” in a secretive division of the LAPD. They are investigating one of their own. The cup has her DNA.Megyn follows four homicide detectives from Van Nuys as they reverse-engineer a cold case, knowing the murderer is a woman. They winnow the list of possible suspects in Sherri Rasmussen’s life to five, and from there, to two —  women for whom Sherri would have opened her front door, with a motive for murder. DNA from a bite on Sherri’s arm rules out one. The other is a match.The killer is LAPD detective Stephanie Lazarus. Depending on whom you ask, Stephanie is  an acquaintance, a friend, or an on-and-off lover of Sherri’s husband. The detectives ask her directly: do you know John Ruetten?
