After almost a decade, California woman, Trista Ann Spicer will head to trail for the grisly murder of her boyfriend Eric Israel Mercado. Eric vanished without a trace in 2014 and it would not be until eight years later that his body would finally be discovered. In 2022, Trista’s new roommate alerted police to the possibility of Trista committing a murder and hiding the body on her property. Eric’s body would be found on her property in what the police called a "makeshift tomb". So, did Trista Ann Spicer kill her then boyfriend Eric Israel Mercado for sinister reasons or was there something else lurking below the surface?
