It is one of the most bizarre crime stories of this decade that is the focus of the Netflix documentary series American Nightmare.
The crime was the kidnapping of Denise Huskins during a home invasion with Aaron Quinn in the middle of the night. The case and evidence sounded so bizarre that the police dismissed the case as a hoax and made Huskins and Quinn their suspects in this real-life Gone Girl scenario.
Then, it even became more bizarre as the investigation unfolded.
The producers of Tinder Swindler, Bernadette Higgins, and Felicity Morris, investigate the unusual crime case and what actually went wrong in the three-part docu-series.
Here is the official synopsis:
After a home invasion and abduction, a young couple’s recounting of the events is too far-fetched for the police to believe. Why did the victims seem so calm? Was it all a hoax? From the filmmakers behind The Tinder Swindler, this three-part docuseries unravels the consequences of our cultural rush to judgement, and the damage done when law enforcement decides the truth can’t possibly be true.

Despite the evidence, one has to watch this docu-series to understand why the police dismissed the case completely. It is weird to assume that someone would kidnap without ransom and return the victim to her front door with e-mail messages admitting to the crime. The truth to this real-life story enters into a realm of unbelievability as another twist emerges.
The three-episode documentary series American Nightmare will be released on Netflix on January 17.
