The Fake Cancer and Fatal Betrayal of Kacee Terry

When 38-year-old Kacee Lyn Terry was found unresponsive in her Utah bedroom in August 2024, everyone believed her years-long battle with cancer had finally come to an end. But what unfolded next would shock her family, friends, and the entire community.

In this episode of Serial Napper, we’re diving into the twisted case of Kacee Terry and Meggan Randall Sundwall — a licensed nurse and former friend who now stands accused of aggravated murder. Investigators say Meggan not only convinced Kacee that she was terminally ill, but also orchestrated a slow, calculated plan to end her life — with a $1.5 million life insurance payout at the center of it all.

We’ll unpack the chilling evidence, including more than 28,000 text messages exchanged between the two women, deleted phone data, and the use of insulin on a woman who was not diabetic. We’ll also break down the legal implications around assisted suicide and Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) laws in both Utah and Canada, and what obligations nurses have when it comes to end-of-life care.

Was this a mercy killing, a manipulative con, or something even darker?

Warning: This episode discusses sensitive topics including medical deception, suicide, and end-of-life care. Listener discretion is advised.
