Jeffrey Mundt and Joseph Banis: The Fourth Street House of Horrors

In December 2009, Jamie Carroll, a 37-year-old master hair stylist from Louisville, Kentucky, disappeared after a night of drugs and sex at a Victorian mansion on Fourth Street in Old Louisville. His body wouldn't be discovered for six months, sealed in a 50-gallon container and buried five feet beneath the basement floor. The investigation exposed a complex homicide case involving methamphetamine addiction, a sophisticated counterfeiting operation, and two men who each claimed the other was the killer. Federal agencies including the Secret Service and CIA became involved after discovering nearly a million files on seized hard drives, adding layers of mystery to an already disturbing case. Jeffrey Mundt and Joseph Banis turned on each other in separate trials, creating a legal battle where each defendant's primary evidence was the testimony of his accomplice.

This case gets weird fast. Two men, one victim, a basement grave that stayed hidden for half a year, and federal agents who still won't explain what they found on those computers. Sometimes the truth doesn't set you free. Sometimes it just raises more questions.
