Netflix Documentary Revisits the Mysterious Deaths of the Carman Family

A new Netflix true crime documentary examines the case of Nathan Carman, who in 2016 was rescued alone from the Atlantic Ocean after a fishing trip with his mother, Linda Carman, whose body was never recovered. Three years earlier, his grandfather John Chakalos had been shot dead in his Connecticut home. The documentary revisits both deaths and the federal fraud charges filed against Carman before his death in custody in 2023.
