Description

Did two teenagers attempt to execute the perfect crime back in 1994? Sebastian Burns has been described as the mastermind who used a metal baseball bat to kill his friend Atif Rafay's mother, father, and sister, while Atif stood by. But what was their motive? "48 Hours" correspondent Peter Van Sant talks about what it was like sitting across from these two young men in prison.  #crime #truecrime #murdermystery What’s it like to sit across from a killer and ask the questions no one else can? "48 Hours" producer Judy Rybak sits down with correspondents Erin Moriarty and Peter Van Sant for revealing conversations about how the criminal mind works. Crime. Social justice. Impact. "48 Hours" investigates the most intriguing crime and justice cases that touch on all areas of the human experience including greed and passion.

Sebastian’s sister is rather arrogant and full of herself. She is smirking all the time.

Phew! I dont know about Sebastian being the smartest, but he has a great ability to recruit suckers as his cheerleaders. Atif, Miyoshi, his family, his gushing girlfriend who thinks he is a 'stud"! Actually his family, the wsy they talk...they feel they are a cut above! And Atif is brilliant in his own way..talking so fondly of his parents, his mother..with a huge smile and twinkling eyes... There are REAL monsters amongst us who can appear like angels...

Sebastian’s father didn’t do his son any favors by not teaching him a little humility & self reflection.

The thing about PSYCHOPATHS is that they're so entitled and narcissistic that they convince themselves that the rest of us are too stupid to catch onto their games....therein lies their downfall. Hope Sébastien and Atif enjoy prison, maybe they can quote Hamlet to their cell mates. RIP to the victims ⚘️

These two just radiated a false sense of superiority. The sister is just horrid

Sebastian reminds me of Ryan Gosling’s character in the movie… Numbers. He is a smirky, smart aleck, narcissist. Thinks he knows it all. He’s just like his father IMO. Sebastian’s sister is another narcissist. Why is she smiling so much…nothing to smile about. Entitled people. Atif…why?
