Show Notes
I sit down with Dateline’s Andrea Canning to unpack a chilling sequence: a man convicted of hiring a killer to murder his wife, released from prison, and then attempting to hire another to finish the job against the same woman. From there, we examine other cases where spouses are murdered and ask how perpetrators justify killing the other parent of their children to escape a life they feel trapped in. We turn to the Kouri Richins case to consider how high-profile “crimes of passion” are portrayed in the media versus what’s established in court, and we broaden to other notable passion-crime stories that test the line between emotion, calculation, and accountability.
