WAIT, THERE'S AN ORIGINAL DALI PAINTING HANGING IN RIKERS ISLAND?!?!  Well... there was, anyway.  Dali was supposed to pay a visit to the prison in 1965, but instead of showing up, gave them the hastily made painting that he called "Christ on the cross" (a good swear, as anyone familiar with Long Island mothers of a certain stripe will tell you!).  It hung in various places throughout the facility for forty years until someon...

In part 2, we start to understand the severity of Andrea's postpartum depression - an illness that went untreated so long that it developed into a psychosis. And even after she recovered from it the first time and she and her husband Rusty were warned that it would be worse if they had any more kids, they went ahead and had their fifth. Many questions swirl around Rusty and his insistence that they continue to reproduce. And ...

On June 20, 2001, 36-year-old Andrea Yates did the unthinkable when she drowned her five children in the bathtub of her family home. For decades, that was all anyone knew. We called her crazy, evil, unforgivable. We couldn't imagine how it could have happened. But the backstory is horrifying and centers around the "teachings" of a radical street preacher, who psychologically tortured and tormented his followers into believing...

On February 3, 2003, cops were called to the home - OH EXCUSE ME, I MEANT TO SAY SUUUUUUPER TACKY CASTLE. YES CASTLE - of music producer and "legend" Phil Spector. Spector claimed that a woman had come into his home and then killed herself in his foyer. If that sounds insane, it's because it is and it is DEFINITELY not what happened. The woman's name was Lana Clarkson AND SHE WAS FREAKING AWESOME. Of course the trial was a ci...

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
