The Deadly Hoax is part of season six of Web of Lies and is described as, "When a tech-savvy computer wiz fails to make the grade as a pro video gamer, he becomes obsessed with finding internet infamy. What starts as an online prank spirals into a new, deadly crime called "swatting" that chills the nation." Casey Viner and Tyler Barriss were responsible for placing the fraudulent call, and their intended target was Shane Gaskill. Instead the police swatted the Finch family home where Andrew ended up dead. His niece, Lisa Finch committed suicide in 2019 as she never recovered from seeing him killed.
