14 year old Breck Bednar of the U.K. started to get into a dark place towards the end of his 13th year of life. He preferred to remain in his room playing video games and online chatting than spending time with his family, friends and everything else he enjoyed before meeting 18 year old Lewis Daynes online. Lewis was a master manipulator and put seeds into Breck's head about how his life should be. Breck was at a very impressionable age and to him, Lewis was his idol. However Lewis was grooming Breck to be part of his sexually sadistic fantasies, and one day in early 2014 the two would meet. 

True Crime Quickie is a 2016 unsolved case of Laura Cuni in Miami, Florida.
