The Morgan Metzer case is a chilling story of obsession, deception, and a staged rescue gone horribly wrong. On January 1, 2021, in Canton, Georgia, Morgan woke up to a masked intruder in her bedroom, his voice eerily altered to sound like Batman. What followed was a terrifying ordeal—she was assaulted, zip-tied, and left on her back porch, blindfolded with a pillowcase over her head.
But here’s where it gets even darker. Her ex-husband, Rodney "Rod" Metzer, showed up soon after, playing the hero. He called 911, claiming to have just discovered her. But investigators quickly unraveled his twisted scheme. Turns out, Rod had been faking a cancer diagnosis to win Morgan back. And if that wasn’t disturbing enough, his search history exposed him—"how to get sympathy from your ex" and "how to change the sound of your voice."
In August 2021, the truth finally caught up to him. Facing 14 felony charges, Rod pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 70 years—with 25 behind bars and the rest on probation. A desperate bid for control, a carefully staged attack, and a man who thought he could get away with it—until the evidence told a different story.
