When Lauren Suhr heard about a missing pregnant woman, 21-year-old Kelsie Scheilling, she couldn't stop thinking about her and her family. She wanted to help them get answers.


She heard that the prime suspect in Kelsie's case was 20-year-old Donthe Lucas. So she did something radical - she reached out to him on social media and offered to be his friend. But that friendship soon developed into a romantic relationship.... and then he proposed.


Lauren was left in a unprecedented situation, would she marry the man she suspected of murder? And could she get the information she so desperately wanted to give the Scheilling family - what happened to Kelsie?


This is REAL.
