This week Megan takes us back to the 1960s when life was tough and trust in others was strong. When Sylvia's parents head off with the carnival and leave her and her younger sister with a complete stranger, they expect to come back in a few months with a few extra dollars and continue life with all of their children but before they can return their third child, Sylvia, will have gone through more torture and Hell than anyone could have ever imagined. This week will be a lead into what eventually happens and next week will entail the grisly details of Sylvia's last days. It's a really heavy case but her story is one that needs to be told to keep her sweet memory alive.

Source for this case is the book titled, Torture Mom by Ryan Green

**THIS WEEKS SOUL CLEANSE**
This week we head to Okoboji Lake in Iowa where a 17 year old boy named Joe Salmon witnessed a Jeep plunge into the river. In quick thinking he ran to rescue whom ever was inside. Once he got to the vehicle he jumped into the freezing water, broke out the back window, pulled Cooper, the driver's dog through the window and passed him on to some other men that had come to assist before swimming to the front and pulling an 83-year-old man from the car ultimately saving his life.
