This week, Vee covers Diane Downs a young Oregon mother who attempted to murder her 3 children so that she was free to be with her married lover. A media sensation of its time, we look at why its so hard for the public to believe women are capable of murdering their children, and what it looks like when police work and forensics show a much darker version of events than anyone could've imagined.

Research for this week's episode came primarily from Ann Rule's bestselling book about this case, "Small Sacrifices".
