A newborn abandoned. A mother accused 30 years later. But is this case as straightforward as it seems?

Jennifer Fessler sits down with ‘Baby Doe’ director Jessica Earnshaw to examine the shocking true story behind her powerful new documentary. They discuss the controversial prosecution of Gail Ritchie, the little-known phenomenon of pregnancy denial, the courtroom decisions that shaped her murder trial and why the verdict and why this case continues to divide audiences long after the verdict. It's a conversation that may leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about guilt, justice, and compassion.
