First Watch: Child OUTSMARTS Mom’s Kidnapper & Uncle Attacked for Cash

For her first case, Katie reveals how a young boy in Iowa became a real-life hero after saving his mother from a terrifying hostage situation. The boy heard her being abused throughout the night by a man, so when he went on the school bus the next morning, he did something courageous that sprang authorities into action. Then, Katie turns to Detroit, where a viral “feel-good” video changed Curtis Dixon’s life overnight, but also made him a target. Within weeks, his own nephew allegedly led a violent plot to kidnap and kill him for his newfound fortune. Crime House Daily is a Crime House Original Podcast, powered by PAVE Studios.
