First, Andie covers news out of Germany in the story of a woman who used Instagram to lure a beauty blogger who looked like her to her brutal end in an apparent attempt to fake her own death. Second, Jessie covers the just-started trial of Viktoria Nasyrova for the attempted murder of Olga Tsyvk as well as the wild backstory that led Viktoria to the US in the first place.
