The Psycho Next Door - Stephen McDaniel

On this episode of Wife of Crime I'm telling Russ about the senseless murder of Lauren Giddings. Lauren had just finished law school and was studying to take the Bar Exam. When friends and family didn't hear anything from her for a few days however, they started to get concerned. Among the friends searching for her was a man none of them knew too well... her next door neighbor Stephen McDaniel. Soon everyone would discover that while Lauren was simply just being neighborly to Stephen, waving and smiling at him in passing, he was building a fantasy world in his head and it completely revolved around Lauren. Moral of this story... We never truly know what's going on behind closed doors. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
