Ashley Young: “Where is She?”丨MURDERISH Ep. 106

Optimists have a tendency to see the best in people, sometimes to their own detriment. According to
Healthline, an individual’s calling to fix other peoples’ problems is referred to by psychologists as a savior
complex or white knight syndrome. A savior complex would explain the unlikely friendship between
Ashley Young and her friend who had a troubling past. Ashley often saw the best in people and believed
her positive influence could potentially set someone on the right path. Unfortunately, Ashley’s unwavering
loyalty put her in grave danger. After detectives made a gruesome discovery and conducted forensic
tests, a parent’s worst nightmare came true. Ashley Young had been murdered and the killer may have
had help from an unlikely source. To this day, Ashley’s family still do not have all the answers they crave
and deserve.

Clara and David Harris were approaching their 10th wedding anniversary. She was a dentist, he was an
orthodontist and they’d built a small dental empire together. The couple were a perfect match with shared
views about how they wanted to live life. The Harris’ had created an existence that most people would
envy. After a decade together, however, their relationship dynamic shifted. Clara noticed that her husband
had been distancing himself. Clara tried to ignore it and convinced herself that it was just her imagination,
but soon she’d find out that it wasn’t. Her marriage was in serious trouble and the ideal life she’d built with
David ...was going to end in a cataclysm.

Nicole Montalvo: “Like Father, Like Son”丨MURDERISH Ep. 107
When feelings for another person run deep, people are often inclined to see the best in that person. It’s
not uncommon for unsettling behavior to be excused rather than seeing it as a warning sign and acting on
it. But this idealism can put someone in harm’s way without them realizing it until it’s much too late. When
Nicole Montalvo went missing in October 2019, investigators quickly learned that a lot was going on in her
personal life and sadly, her circumstances were not all that unusual. Nicole’s disturbing murder led to
three arrests and one trial.
