Investigation Discovery focuses on the horrific murders of seven family members in the two-hour special Toxic: What Happened in the Haight House? Toxic‘s Elizabeth Chambers hosts the special set to premiere on Tuesday, October 27, 2026 at 9pm ET/PT.
The special is part of ID’s No Excuse for Abuse campaign in support of October’s designation as Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
ID offers this description of the upcoming special:
“The special explores how years of coercive control, emotional abuse, and escalating violence remained hidden behind the façade of a seemingly perfect family, revealing the warning signs of escalating danger that were overlooked by those in a position to respond to them, ultimately preceding the murders of Tausha Haight, her five children, and her mother.
Building on her acclaimed ID series Toxic, Elizabeth Chambers traces Tausha Haight’s quiet fight to reclaim her independence from her husband, Michael Haight, filing for divorce just two weeks before the murders. Through a harrowing examination of the indicators of escalating risk and the systemic failures that prevented intervention, Chambers is joined by true crime commentator and Serialously podcast host Annie Elise, who helps unpack the key indicators of escalating danger through the lens of the Lethality Assessment Protocol, a critical tool now used by law enforcement agencies across Utah and beyond in domestic violence response.
Together, they revisit the devastating case and the reforms it helped inspire, while candid interviews with friends, therapists, and advocates closest to the family illuminate the lasting impact of the tragedy. The two-hour special ultimately delivers a powerful message: recognizing the warning signs of abuse and intervening early can save lives.”
