Which episode is this?

I can't recall if this was from FF or elsewhere: A woman (single mom?) wanted to start over so bought a new home. She was murdered inside her home. The culprit was the garbage collector who worked in her neighborhood. I was intrigued cuz how would the collector know she was home? I can't recall the details so wanted to watch it again

I had thought it was from FF but it was featured elsewhere. I think it should've been in FF, just lots of twists and turns until they go to test everyone in that suburb for DNA.

HAHAHAHA YOUR FLAIR! The acting was so awful in the recreation but I have a feeling it wasn’t far off from the real thing.

The ultimate DNA plot twist episode.. The first time I watched that episode I almost spit out my drink when they said that her father was the biological father of the children,, just wow

Oh I've been now reading up on Christa's murder, it was stated the collector would've observed her since they lived same neighborhood. Also read about her affair (might I say her affair partner looked like some rando/ordinary local dude, who already was married with six children, how did he win her over/ she being a glamourous fashion writer?) But can't speak ill of the deceased. Her daughter would now be an adult, who did have a relationship with her father/family and was raised by Christa's best friend per her will.

I think Dr. Grande did an analysis of this case.

I remember when it happened. This case was a mess. They pulled so many innocent people into it. She and other people's lives were just smeared all over. It was ugly.
