NBC’s ‘Dateline: The House in the Woods’ and ABC’s ’20/20: What The Little Girl Saw’ delve into the tragic case of Kelley Clayton’s murder. One night in September 2015, the 35-year-old was beaten to death by an intruder while her children were still at home. Ultimately, the police uncovered a murder-for-hire plot, with her husband, Thomas “Tom” Clayton, hiring a former employee to carry out the murder. But this also left Kelley’s family with a piece of shocking news to digest.

Investigation Discovery’s ‘A Time To Kill: Three’s Company, Four’s a Crowd’ and NBC’s ‘Dateline: Deadly Entanglement’ delve deep into the murder of Desiree Sunford in April 2013. The 30-year-old school teacher was shot to death in her home while her husband, Scott Sunford, attended a funeral out of town. He alerted the police after calls to his wife went unanswered. As the authorities dug deeper, they realized that Scott was having an affair with Paige Blades around the time of the murder.

A murder in Yakima, Washington, initially seemed like the result of a burglary gone wrong. Desiree Sunford was found shot to death in her home, but the police didn’t have many leads to follow. Investigation Discovery’s ‘A Time To Kill: Three’s Company, Four’s a Crowd’ and NBC’s ‘Dateline: Deadly Entanglement’ chronicles how a tip-off led to answers in the case more than a year after the murder, eventually leading to a conviction of the perpetrator.
