S4Ep7 | With the Intent to Cause Mischief

Optophobia

Growing up on the road alongside her saleswoman mom, Jeri Jones believed she had a serene, peace-loving nature.

Armed with common household implements as agents of mischief and with a Rolodex she found while Dumpster diving as a guide, her rampage began.

Around the time Darrell Klep first saw "Relentless" in the late 1980s, he also began his career as a farmer. Eventually, he started working weekend farmer's markets, following his customers and sitting in his car outside their homes. Creepy? Yes. Coincidence? Probably not.

S4Ep8 | The Thong Song, SisQó and We

Some "Relentless"-inspired would-be serial killers have been celebrities. When Marrissa Horn, a tea shop owner from L.A. began dating SisQó, she had no idea that a visit to Victoria's Secret together would inspire the R&B legend's greatest hit, nor that he might try to use the song as a murder weapon.
