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.
