Tune in on Monday, August 15 at 9PM ET/PT on HLN.

Runaway Mom: The Sherri Papini Story - Police were baffled by the disappearance of married young mom of two, Sherri Papini, while out for a jog. Weeks later she reappears, dazed, battered, and bruised. But investigators uncover a twisted hoax involving an ex-lover. Runaway Mom: The Sherri Papini Story premieres this September on HLN.

Toxic Love: The Gabby Petito Tragedy (wt) - 22-year old Gabby Petito vanishes after taking a cross country road trip with her fiancé, but their toxic relationship led to her violent death.
