(130) Life in Prison in Delaware

51 minutes

On today's episode...another disaster on the east coast. Delaware actually used the death penalty until 2012, believe it or not. This one has it all. A horrible child abuse case, a black widow, and an 80s serial killer. I couldn't expect anything else from the state that gave us Joe Biden.
