About this episode

Former FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong focuses on Betty Broderick, who, after having one of the most infamous divorces in United States history, proceeded to kill her ex-husband and his new wife. Betty’s absolute certainty that she did the right thing, and her complete lack of remorse, are some of the clues that help Candice unravel Betty’s psyche.
