YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Luciano Frattolin, a Canadian father, is accused of murdering his 13-year-old daughter Melina by drowning her and leaving her body in a shallow pond during what was supposed to be a father-daughter vacation in upstate New York. A witness says she saw Frattolin's car on the side of the road the night of the murder, and police say he initially claimed Melina was kidnapped by men in a van — an account later found to be inconsistent. While Frattolin portrayed a glamorous lifestyle online and claimed to adore his daughter, investigators have uncovered a different reality marked by financial ruin, lawsuits, and personal turmoil. Law&Crime’s Chris Stewart spoke with the witness who saw the father and daughter before the murder.
