The jury took 40 minutes to convict Dick Hickock and Perry Smith of the Clutter family murders. On the gallows five years later, Perry Smith's last words were an apology.

In the third and final episode on the Clutter family murders, Katie Ring walks through what actually happened inside the farmhouse that night, based on the killers' own confessions. Then the trial, the executions, and the complicated legacy of Truman Capote: the writer who formed a personal bond with the killers, may have let them die to finish his book, and never completed another major project afterward. This episode contains descriptions of murder and violence. Please listen with care.

In the summer of 2008, two-year-old Caylee Anthony vanished, and her mother Casey didn't report her missing for thirty-one days. In that time, she got a tattoo, went to nightclubs, and stayed at her boyfriend's apartment. When Casey's car turned up at a tow yard, a former police officer recognized the smell coming from the trunk. He was Caylee's grandfather. He said nothing.

In the first of three episodes on the death of Caylee Anthony, Katie Ring traces the Anthony family, the tensions that had been building for years, and the elaborate web of lies that unraveled the moment investigators started pulling at the threads.

This episode contains descriptions of child death and references to allegations of abuse. Please listen with care.

She confessed to seven murders to protect the woman she loved. She went to trial represented by a real estate attorney in a capital case. And the day before her execution, she told a filmmaker that God was taking her to heaven on a spaceship.

In the third and final episode on Aileen Wuornos, Katie Ring closes the book on one of the most complicated cases in American criminal history, tracing the confession that sealed Aileen's fate, the trial that made her a national obsession, and the decade on death row that left more questions than answers about what justice actually looks like when the system has failed someone from the very beginning.

This episode contains descriptions of physical and sexual assault, abuse, and murder. Please listen with care.

By the spring of 1990, Aileen Wuornos had killed once and gotten away with it. So she kept going.

In part two of three episodes on Aileen Wuornos, Katie Ring traces the six men killed after Richard Mallory: who they were, what happened to them, and how investigators across multiple Florida counties began to realize they were dealing with something entirely new. All while Aileen's girlfriend Tyria had no idea how close the murder investigation was getting. From a crashed car on the Fourth of July to a pawn shop fingerprint, this is how Aileen’s killing spree finally began to catch up with her.

Before Aileen Wuornos became one of America's most feared female serial killers, she was a 13-year-old girl who was assaulted and impregnated by a stranger, gave birth completely alone, and came home to a family that blamed her.

In the first of three episodes on Aileen Wuornos, Katie Ring traces the story of a woman the world expected to be a victim, and how a lifetime of abandonment, abuse, and betrayal set her on a path no one tried to redirect. From a childhood in Michigan to the Florida highways where it all came to an end, this is the story of how Aileen Wuornos was made.

This episode contains descriptions of physical and sexual assault, abuse, and murder. Please listen with care.
