Carnation, Washington. December 24th, 2007. A quiet rural town nestled among pine trees, where the holidays feel sacred. But inside a small wood-paneled home on 127th Place, six members of the Anderson family—spanning three generations—were executed on Christmas Eve.

Wayne and Judy Anderson, their son Scott, his girlfriend Erika, and two young children, Olivia and Nathan, were murdered by someone they knew. Michele Anderson—the couple’s daughter—and her boyfriend, Joseph McEnroe, carried out one of the most chilling family annihilations in American history.

The motive? Grudges. Resentment. Entitlement. The killers stayed in the house for hours after the murders, sitting among the bodies, letting the holiday pass. It took two full days before anyone discovered what had happened.

This episode traces the path from simmering family tension to full-blown massacre, and explores how a house meant for joy and gathering became the site of a calculated, intimate horror. Even years later, that home in Carnation still carries the weight of what happened within its walls.
