    An Affair, an Axe, and a Not Guilty Verdict | Crimes Of...

    In this episode of Crimes Of... Sabrina and Corinne unpack the disturbing and deeply complex case of Susan Polk—a woman who married her own therapist and, decades later, killed him. What begins as a troubling story of blurred boundaries and unethical behavior evolves into a marriage defined by power imbalances, emotional control, and escalating instability. Rather than asking whether Susan killed her husband—because she did—this episode examines how a relationship rooted in grooming and manipulation shaped the path to violence. Through a careful exploration of Susan’s life, her marriage to Dr. Felix Polk, and the dynamics that defined their relationship, this episode lives in the gray space where love, abuse, and accountability collide.

    True Crime This Week: Killer Trials

    This week on True Crime This Week, Vanessa Richardson revisits two courtroom battles that defined true crime in the 1990s. First, the sensational Menendez brothers trial, where Lyle and Erik’s confession to murdering their parents collided with shocking abuse claims and a defense strategy that split the jury and ended in a mistrial. Then, the trial of serial killer Aileen Wuornos, whose claims of self-defense unraveled under scrutiny as jurors convicted her of murdering seven men across Florida. From media-fueled trials to emotional testimony and verdicts that stunned the nation, this episode explores how justice plays out when killers take the stand—and how courts separate truth from manipulation.
