About this listen

 The source details the brutal murder of 18-year-old high school student Michael "Mikey" Bennett in Wentzville, Missouri, in April 2022. The investigation uncovered a secret sexual relationship between Mikey and his English teacher, Andrea Monroe, which ultimately led to her husband, Jeremy Monroe, committing the murder out of jealousy and rage. Jeremy tracked Mikey's location using a GPS app, confronted him in the woods behind the school, and fatally stabbed him. Andrea was later found guilty of unlawful sexual conduct and as an accessory to the murder, while Jeremy received a life sentence for first-degree murder. The community grappled with the aftermath, leading to new school policies and Mikey's mother establishing a foundation to help victims of abuse.
