On October 2, 1996, 16 year old Heather Rich snuck out of her home to meet her friends. She never returned home, and was found dead on October 10. Her ex-boyfriend Randy Wood, friend Josh Bagwell, and their acquittance Curtis Gambill later confessed to killing her. They were all found guilty of murder and conspiracy to commit murder. 

Why did they kill Heather, and who was the real ringleader?
