On May 5, 1993, three 8-year-old boys were brutally murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas. The tiny local police department launches an investigation but finds little physical evidence to lead them to a suspect. Eventually, outside pressure pushes them to charge someone with the killings, whether or not the evidence supports their conclusions.
American Scandal takes you deep into the heart of America’s dark side to look at what drives someone to break the rules and what happens when they’re caught.
