He "Married" His Own Daughter; Days Later, it Escalated into Murder | Steven Pladl Case

The Steven Pladl case is one of those stories that starts off shocking... and somehow gets worse the deeper you go.

It began when his adopted daughter, Katie Pladl, found him at 18 and moved into his home. What followed was an incestuous relationship that led to a pregnancy, a marriage, and criminal charges.

Authorities stepped in and a no-contact order was put in place...

...But it didn’t stop the relationship.

Within days of their separation, multiple people were dead.

This episode breaks down the timeline, the warning signs, and the decisions that failed to stop a situation that escalated into a multi-state murder-suicide.
