Stalked By Evil: The Murder of Shannon Sanderson

Chrissy Champagne Episode 53

One fateful night at a casino led to a search for answers for 25-year-old Shannon Sanderson's family. On the night of April 18th, 1996, Shannon Sanderson dropped her 3 children off at her ex-in-law's house. She was on her way to the Sam's Town Hotel and Casino in Tunica, Mississippi. Her husband, Robert Sanderson, decided to stay home at the last minute. Shannon was alone at the casino, but she was winning big! She returned to pick up her kids around 4:45am. But, only Shannon's car would be found in the driveway. Her ex-father-in-law said he heard Shannon arguing in the driveway before she went missing. Who is to blame for Shannon's disappearance? Could it be her husband? Her ex-husband? Her ex-boyfriend? Or, could it be something more evil than anyone could ever imagine?
