Shanna "Liz" Golyar allegedly killed Cari Farver due to what was later perceived as extreme jealousy and rage as they were dating the same man named Dave Kroupa. The jaw-dropping true-crime murder mystery story will be explored in the latest episode of Dateline: Secrets Uncovered Season 10.

Dave Kroupa reportedly first met Shanna "Liz" Golyar on a dating site and started dating afterward. Soon after, Dave told Liz that he was not interested in a serious relationship and would see other women.

Six months after their first meeting, Dave began dating Cari Farver. Although they both agreed not to have a serious relationship, things were going pretty well. Cari even reportedly started to stay at Dave's apartment.

To hide the truth about her being the murderer of Cari, Golyar went on to unbelievable lengths, which made this case extraordinarily complicated and took years to solve.

After she allegedly murdered Cari, she started sending awful pretending to be Cari - she sent threatening texts to Dave and the victim's mother and son. She continued to do this for years. She even sent herself threatening texts and emails so that no one would suspect her.

Liz reportedly burned down her family pets, entailing two dogs, a cat, and a snake, and shot a bullet in her leg only to hide the truth about her being a murderer. She even tried to blame Dave's former girlfriend and the mother of his two children, Amy Flora.
