S.9 Ep. 13 The Murder of Glenn Kopitske

Viewer discretion is advised: This episode will talk briefly about sexual acts between an adult and a minor.  Glenn Kopitske (37) was an eccentric and odd local in the small town of Weyauwega, Wisconsin. He had a close relationship with both his parents and was living on his own with his newly adopted dog in 2003. After his mother, Shirley, could not reach Glenn by phone, she went to check on him at his home and was horrified to find the body of her son lying on his bedroom floor naked. Glenn was found shot to death and stabbed post-mortem in a very personal attack. With no physical evidence leading to a suspect, the case was starting to go cold when a young woman came forward to give information on Glenn's murder. No one believed the young woman's story, and no one could have predicted the story the killer told later to police.  The town of Weyauwega would never be the same.
