Schallert later pleaded guilty to two counts of murder. A jury convicted Ferris of murder, home invasion, and armed robbery. Both received life terms. The episode revisits those facts, then adds what the pair now claim. Each points to the other. Some statements remain contested or alleged, and the episode presents them as such.

What Snapped: Behind Bars season 3 covers

Snapped: Behind Bars season 3 takes viewers inside prisons to hear directly from people convicted in cases previously featured on Snapped. The format is simple and direct. Producers sit down with the inmates. They walk through the original timeline.

Then they weigh new claims against the public record and prior reporting. The goal is to show what the subjects now say about motive, planning, and aftermath. Sometimes that means remorse. At other times, it means an attempt to recast events, with details that are reportedly new or disputed.

In this week’s premiere, the interviews were taped in March 2025, according to Oxygen. The episode presents both perspectives, incorporates scene evidence and charging documents where available, and allows viewers to compare those accounts with earlier statements.
