It's a Sunday morning in July 2019 on a quiet street in Markham, Ontario. The kind of neighbourhood where nothing ever happens.

Somewhere across the world, in an online gaming community, messages are coming in. Photographs. A confession. Players are staring at their screens, unsure if what they're reading is real, or just another disturbing joke from the guy they know as an online troll.

But unfortunately, this wouldn't end up being just another joke. Because shortly after, four people would end up dead. A grandmother. A mother. A father. A sister. And the man who killed them is still inside the same house where he murdered them all.

Menhaz Zaman had spent years building a lie; a carefully constructed fiction about university degrees, engineering careers, and a future that never existed. And when that lie was finally about to unravel, he made a choice that no one who knew him saw coming.

 

Part 1 - We look into the background of the Zaman family, as well as the how the brutal family murders were carried out by Menhaz.

 

Part 2 - We dig into the chilling evidence uncovered by investigators as they try to make sense of this senseless crime. Online messages, warning posts, gruesome images, all signs indicating that trouble had been brewing for a lot longer than anyone had expected.
