In April 1963, former Olympic skier Sonja McCaskie was strangled and dismembered by 18-year-old high school student Thomas Lee Bean, who had a history of troubled behavior. Thomas’s attorneys presented an insanity defense, but there was evidence that he put thought and planning into the murder.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Thomas Lee Bean and the murder of Sonja McCaskie. The strategy that Thomas's attorney decided on was odd. He didn't dispute the fact that his client killed Sonja. He didn't ask for a change of venue or even object to the introduction of evidence at trial. Would the strategy work?
