The Pulitzer Prize and Peabody Award-winning “You Didn't See Nothin” follows Yohance Lacour as he revisits the story that introduced him to the world of investigative journalism.

The Dexter Killer: When Fiction Inspires Fatal Reality
Mark Twitchell had dreams of becoming a celebrated filmmaker, but his obsession with Dexter and a penchant for plastic sheeting turned those dreams into a nightmare. In this episode, we unravel the chilling tale of a man who blurred the lines between reality and fiction with deadly precision. From crafting fake online dating profiles to luring unsuspecting victims to his “film set,” Twitchell didn’t just write about serial killers—he tried to become one. But when one victim fought back and another vanished entirely, his twisted plans unraveled faster than the plot of his amateur horror movie.
Join us as we explore how ambition, delusion, and a fascination with a fictional antihero led Twitchell from the silver screen to a courtroom. This is the story of the "Dexter Killer"—a case where fact was far stranger, and bloodier, than fiction.
