Actress Dominique Dunne was strangled to death by her abusive boyfriend, John Sweeney, on October 30th 1982. Aurora and Angelina review the red flags leading up to Dominique's murder, the ties her story has to Halloween, and how her case inspired her already-famous father, Dominick Dunne, to pursue a career in the realm of True Crime.

This episode also features a tribute to our friend and major supporter of MMN, Jenni Robertson, who we recently lost to domestic violence.

Writing and research by Aurora Cady.

Original music and audio production by Louis Levesque.
