Robert Fisher is said to have stabbed and shot his wife and then slit the throats of his children. He took his stuff out of the house. Then put accelerant down the hallway to the bedrooms with a candle burning on the floor. He then disconnected the gas pipe from the furnace so gas filled the house and exploded when the candle burned down. These two actions are very sophisticated and unlike for a distraught dad to do after murdering his family. The throat slit and the gunshot to the wife is also strange. If it were a spur of the moment, the throat or the gunshot would do. Why would he slit his children's throats, if he had a gun. He would shoot them as they slept. Someone in a crazed maniacal storm would shoot and run. Someone else killed Robert's family and told him what to do at gunpoint. Someone told him to gather his belongings and take the dog. Someone told him to go to the ATM and withdraw the maximum amount. Robert Fisher was told to drive to the forest that he knew. The car and dog are left. Fisher is marched at gunpoint out to another vehicle. The killers take Fisher to a remote location and kill him. Why? The mystery! No one knows but the killers who leave everyone puzzled and devastated. The story is the power. The front page. The documentary. The killers ruin his name and his family both. And no one but the killers are in control.

Maybe it's because I knew in advance that Robert Fisher still has not been found, but the movie quickly became a repetitive confirmation of the family's commitment to their church and the lord.

It was a heinous act by Fisher, and I feel bad for his wife and children, but this would have fit better in an episode of Unsolved Mysteries. 15 minutes and the story could be told.

As an aside, I found it in poor taste that they felt the need to repeatedly show the burned remains of the 3 victims. I didn't need to see that to get the idea.

Amazon Prime has some good documentaries, but this isn't one of them.

This case is definitely interesting, but I found myself turning to my phone and the internet to get more info because the documentary was incredibly, painfully slow. It was odd the way it was put together, flip flopping theories literally from one shot to the next and did I mention how slow it was? This whole show was peppered with horrible, 80's creepy synthesizer music which was overlayed on top of so many home movies that do not move the story forward at all and long pauses throughout. I know the case has dried up a little and that's why they may have dragged out the show. But, this is not an uninteresting case and it should have been done so much better.
