How could this have happened? Who could have done this? And why? Investigation Discovery uncovers the reasons behind macabre murders and puzzling disappearances this June. First, NIGHTMARE NEXT DOOR (June 1) reveals the murderers living in seemingly safe communities. Then, are some people just born this way? BORN TO KILL (June 2) uncovers the psychology behind infamous killers to answer the question “is evil born or bred?” As well, New York Times best-selling authors detail the terrifying facts that lead to their popular fiction in HARDCOVER MYSTERIES (JUNE 22). Finally, DISAPPEARED (June 17) returns with another season of mysterious missing person cases.
