The Murder Of Cari Farver True Crime Documentary

Cari Lea Farver, a 37-year-old Iowa woman, was last seen leaving her lover Dave Kroupa's house in Omaha, Nebraska, on her way to work. Her mother reported her missing to the Pottawattamie County Sheriff's Office in Council Bluffs, Iowa, a few days later, but the investigation was soon went cold.

Farver appeared to be alive and well on Facebook, but because authorities couldn't authenticate that the posts were written by her, she was still listed as a missing person. Shanna "Liz" Golyar was arrested and charged with her murder on December 22, 2016. Golyar was charged with first-degree murder and accused by prosecutors of posing as Farver online to conceal her crime.

According to the Omaha World-Herald, shortly after Golyar's arrest, police said they thought Farver was killed on November 13 or 14. Despite the fact that Farver's body has yet to be discovered, prosecutors claim Golyar's memory card had images of Farver's decomposing foot, which had a tattoo, and thigh. According to KETV, Golyar was also found to have written an email detailing the murder from a bogus account posing as another woman.

Golyar said in those emails that Farver had been stabbed in the chest and stomach, burned, and then thrown in a dumpster. On May 24, 2017, Golyar was convicted guilty of Farver's first-degree murder and second-degree arson. “Cari Farver did not willfully disappear and drop off the face of the Earth,” Douglas County Judge Timothy Burns stated after reading the decision, according to KETV.
