Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

Nancy Grace investigates the baffling disappearance of five-year-old Summer Wells, who vanished from her rural Hawkins County, Tennessee home in a matter of mere minutes. Alongside an expert panel—Nancy dissects the highly unusual layout of the home, specifically focusing on the narrow staircase into the basement where Summer slept. By analyzing walkthrough footage obtained by The Interview Room's Chris McDonough and scrutinizing the parents' highly detailed yet conflicting timelines, the panel evaluates the chilling probability of an outside abduction versus an inside tragedy.

Nancy Grace and her all-star panel break down the shocking conviction of high school athlete Carmelo Anthony for the shocking murder of 17-year-old standout student and football star Austin Metcalf. What was supposed to be an ordinary track meet in Frisco, Texas, escalated into a horrific tragedy when a simple dispute over a team tent during a rain delay ended with Metcalf being stabbed in the chest. The panel dissects the jury’s swift three-hour deliberation that resulted in a guilty verdict and a 35-year prison sentence, deeply analyzing the defense's failed "stand your ground" claims, the implicit intent behind bringing a weapon to a school event, and the critical DNA evidence. Beyond the courtroom, Nancy exposes the unimaginable trauma endured by Austin’s twin brother, who held him in his final moments, and addresses the disturbing online harassment and "swatting" attacks targeting the grieving Metcalf family as they navigate a senseless loss.

Nancy Grace dives into the baffling disappearance of Travis Turner, a legacy high school football coach from Wise County, Virginia, who vanished into the rugged Appalachian Mountains just as law enforcement arrived to arrest him. Facing multiple felony counts of possessing child pornography and soliciting a minor, Turner’s sudden flight has ignited fierce community outrage over escaped justice. Joined by an all-star panel, Nancy breaks down the timeline of the search and exposes a history of systemic failures within the school district. Together, they challenge the theory that Turner took his own life in the woods, exploring the plausibility of a powerful community figure with deep ties, cash, and a loyal support network fleeing the country.
