In Killer Kids season 1 episode 13 titled Sibling Rivalry & The Warwick Slasher, viewers get a glimpse into two disturbing stories of children who become murderers.
First, the episode explores the case of an 11-year-old boy named Joshua Campbell, who was brutally murdered by his 14-year-old sister, Jasmine.

The episode delves into the family dynamics that led to this horrific crime and examines the warning signs that were missed by their parents and teachers.
The second story follows the case of Craig Price, also known as the Warwick Slasher. Price was just 15 years old when he began a killing spree that terrorized a small town in Rhode Island. Over the course of two years, Price brutally murdered four people, including a woman and her two young daughters. The episode examines the psychological factors that may have contributed to Price's violent tendencies, such as his troubled home life and history of abuse.

Throughout the episode, experts in criminology, psychology, and law enforcement weigh in on the cases, shedding light on the underlying issues that may have led these children to commit such heinous acts. In addition, family members and friends of the victims share their perspectives on the tragedies, offering a glimpse into the lasting impact that these crimes have had on their lives.
As with previous episodes of Killer Kids, Sibling Rivalry & The Warwick Slasher forces viewers to confront uncomfortable truths about youth violence and the complex factors that contribute to it. While the cases presented in this episode are disturbing, they also offer important lessons about the warning signs and preventative measures that adults can take to help steer troubled children away from a path of violence.
