Betty Gore : A Terrible Sin

Studio71
About this episode

Betty and Alan Gore were having trouble in their marriage, so they decided to have a baby in hopes to reignite passion for each other. Their church friends, Candy and Pat were also having a dry spell in their marriage, so Candy decided that having a secret affair would offer her relief. Candy recruited none other than Alan Gore to sleep with her on a regular basis while his pregnant wife was stuck at home. In the aftermath of the affair, one person was viciously murdered by 41 axe strikes to the head. But the verdict of the jury would turn out to be the most shocking revelation of all.
