This week on Murder Unscripted, we dive into the chilling case that shook Jacksonville Beach, Florida to its core. On Thanksgiving weekend in 1998, 25-year-old Corey Parker — a vibrant college student and beloved waitress — was found slaughtered in her apartment. Corey had been stabbed more than 100 times in a horrifying attack that stunned even the most seasoned investigators. Her door showed no signs of forced entry, and her friendly, trusting nature made the betrayal even more devastating. The hunt for her killer was far from easy. Years passed with no arrests, but detectives refused to give up. It wasn’t until a bold move involving undercover surveillance and some unconventional DNA collection technique that the truth finally emerged: Corey’s own neighbor, Robert Denney, harbored a dark obsession that turned deadly. 🧬🚨 In this episode, Ed and Melissa peel back the layers of this twisted story — from the eerie evidence found at the crime scene, to the psychological profiling that helped corner Denney, and the emotional toll Corey's death took on the beachside community. 🌊💔 What drives a young man to meticulously stalk and murder someone living just feet away? How did investigators finally crack the case wide open? And what warning signs were hiding in plain sight?
