Netflix's latest true-crime documentary, "Girl in the Picture," tells the story of a woman whose life was ruined by abuse and her untimely death. Tonya Hughes, aka Sharon Marshall, was killed in a suspected hit-and-run, but a criminal investigation soon revealed that she and her older husband were different people. Her real name was Suzanne Sebakis, who was kidnapped by Franklin Delano Lloyd, raised as his daughter, and later married.

This chilling document ties together the story of Sebakis' life through the people who knew and loved her, including high school friends, co-workers, and ultimately her birth mother. In addition to the mystery of Sebakis' identity, the film also asks what happened to her two-year-old son, who was kidnapped by Floyd after being placed in foster care following her death.

Although the Netflix doc works backwards from Tonya Hughes' death, the timeline of Floyd's crimes begins when he kidnapped and sexually assaulted a 4-year-old when he was 18. He spent most of his twenties in and out of jail before he escaped in 1973 and began using an alias. Under the name Brandon Williams, he met and married Sebakis' mother, Sandra Willett, and moved her and their four children from North Carolina to Dallas, Texas. In the document, Willett says that when she returned home from 30 days in jail for writing a dishonored check, Floyd and the children were gone.

Of the four children, Floyd kept Sevakis and raised him as her own, naming them Warren and Sharon Marshall. It is unclear whether Floyd abused Sevakis for the rest of his life, but Jenny Fisher, Sevakis' high school friend in the documentary, recalls an incident in which Floyd raped his "daughter" at gunpoint during a sleepover. Sevakis was a bright student and had a full scholarship to study aerospace engineering, but she became pregnant and told Fisher that "Daddy" wouldn't let her go to college. Floyd and Sevakis left town and moved to Tampa, Florida, before settling in Tulsa, Oklahoma. They also offered her child for adoption.

In both Tampa and Tulsa, Sevakis worked as an exotic dancer. Karen Parsely, a fellow dancer in Tulsa, tried to convince Tonya to leave Floyd, but Floyd always threatened to hunt her down if she left him. Eventually, in 1990, Sevakis decided to run away with her secret boyfriend and took her toddler Michael with her. Later that month, she was found on the side of an Oklahoma highway. Karen and hospital staff became suspicious of her injuries, but she eventually died, and her death was presumed to be a hit-and-run.

Floyd was not arrested in Sebakis' death. Instead, he was caught four years later when he kidnapped her 6-year-old son, Michael Hughes, from school. He had sought custody of the child for years, but he was not the biological father and Michael was about to be adopted by foster parents. Floyd kidnapped the boy and the principal at gunpoint, leaving the principal tied to a tree in the nearby woods. In the investigation surrounding Michael, authorities discovered that a man married to the boy's mother had claimed to be her father. From there, the story of Sevakis' life began to unfold.

Floyd was arrested and, after a trial in which he and his co-counsel handled the defense, he was sentenced to 52 years without parole. Later, authorities began to suspect him in connection with the disappearance of Cheryl Ann Commesso, a colleague and friend of Sebakis in Tampa. People who knew Floyd and Sevakis in Tampa said in documents that Floyd acted inappropriately with his "daughter" and was "obsessed" with the 18-year-old Comesso while he had his eye on Michael as a tiger. One night, after a public fight with Floyd, Comesso disappeared and soon left town with Sebakis and Michael.

A few months after Floyd's arrest for Michael's abduction, authorities found an envelope full of duck-tapped photographs in the bottom of his truck. Among them were pictures of Sebakis as a girl and another woman who had been severely beaten. Comesso's body was also found at the same time, and her wounds matched those of the woman in the photographs. Floyd was tried and convicted of first-degree murder as well and sentenced to death. He was tried on the charges against Michael and Commesso, but was not charged in Sebakis' death.

Floyd is now 79 years old and still on death row. According to his page on Wikipedia (opens in new tab), he is incarcerated at the Union Correctional Facility in Florida. Although he did not appear in the documentary, everyone who spoke to him in the film described him as an objectively creepy and dangerous man who was overprotective of Sevakis and later Michael. They also said that Sevakis was kind, active, and loved by his friends.

For years after Sebakis' 6-year-old child was abducted, little was known about what actually happened to Michael Hughes. The boy was missing and presumed dead. The reason is that Floyd did not give any details about Michael's fate during his trial or during the years he was incarcerated. Ten years after Floyd's arrest, FBI investigators finally got him to talk about the case.

The case was solved when Megan Dufresne, an adoptee who had been searching for her biological mother, learned that she was Sebakis' child. After she provided DNA to authorities (after reading a book about Floyd's crimes), the FBI decided to try again to get Sebakis' identity and Michael's location from Floyd; in 2015, Floyd finally confessed to killing the 6-year-old and shooting him twice in the back of the head.

Sevakis had three children: an unknown child conceived in high school, Michael, and a third child, a girl, born in New Orleans in 1989. After being adopted, the girl Megan was raised by Mary and Dean Joseph Dufresne. Her biological father was most likely Floyd, whose identity is still unknown.

Megan Dufresne, who appeared in the document, said she wanted to live up to her birth mother's memory. She said, "Becoming a parent has only strengthened my respect for my birth mother.

Megan now has two children, one of whom is named Michael after her brother.
