Two days later, Lizzi’s friend whose place she was going to, 18-year-old Kat McDonough, is questioned by the police. Kat claims Lizzi did not arrive at her apartment that night.

In an eleven hour interview with the authorities, Seth explains his version of events- which are disturbing, senseless and heart breaking.
