Someone Is Lying: The Murder of Corey Samuels
Description
In a quiet coal mining town of 3,000, surrounded by peaceful, wooded landscapes, a horrifying discovery breaks the stillness. A hiker, out foraging for mushrooms, wanders off the path and spots something chilling—a boot with a bone sticking out.
The mystery traces back to January 21st, 2014, when three young friends ventured into the woods for a traditional “bush party” during a fierce blizzard—and never came back. The next morning, Kristin Sawicki is startled when her brother's girlfriend shows up, panicked. Her brother, Corey, hasn’t returned home.
As calls go unanswered and hours pass, worry turns to dread. Corey, a military veteran deeply affected by his time in Afghanistan, may have been struggling. Could he have simply gotten lost in the storm… or is there more to the story buried in those woods?
