Lifetime Sentence

We're baaaaaaaaack!! This week we went Murder Lite. Erin watched Fab 5:  The Texas Cheerleading Scandal a movie with no murder, but LOTS of entitlement.  Then Paul tells us the real story and we talk about how this would have never happened in our respective schools.

This week we cover a very special fan request!! Erin watched the Texas Cadet Murders, which also goes by several other names. It’s a full on, 90’s, Southern Baptist flashback. Then Paul tells us the real story of the murder of Adrienne Jones and the absolute worst confession letter ever written.  Move over Shakespeare, there’s a new tragedy in town!

This week Erin watched an absurd tale about sex trafficking. Spoiler Alert, it’s always the pretend philanthropist who wears florals.  Then Paul tells some grisly true stories about human trafficking. One of us kept to our comedic origins, and it was not Paul!

If you think you know this story, you definitely don’t. This week Erin watched ‘I Was Lorena Bobbitt’. Then Paul tells us the true story of Lorena and how she overcame domestic violence and being a national punchline to become an absolute QUEEN.

Join us this week for murder, Benadryl, and Quidditch. Paul has a rash, Erin has a spider problem, everyone is falling apart! This week, Erin watched Death of a Cheerleader, a Lifetime Classic starring none other than Tori Spelling herself. This movie is a fever dream of 90's stars. Then Paul tells us the real story of the 1985 murder of Kirsten Costas that inspired a Mean Girls style change in a California town and led to the banning of mustard yellow Ford Pintos everywhere (we wish!)

This week we wonder, Who IS Clark Rockefeller?? Erin watched a movie of the same name. Lifetime didn’t even need to embellish this one because the real story Paul then tells us is so insane, you may not even believe it. But we promise, it’s true!
