In this episode of Crimes Of... Sabrina and Corinne unpack the disturbing and deeply complex case of Susan Polk—a woman who married her own therapist and, decades later, killed him. What begins as a troubling story of blurred boundaries and unethical behavior evolves into a marriage defined by power imbalances, emotional control, and escalating instability. Rather than asking whether Susan killed her husband—because she did—this episode examines how a relationship rooted in grooming and manipulation shaped the path to violence. Through a careful exploration of Susan’s life, her marriage to Dr. Felix Polk, and the dynamics that defined their relationship, this episode lives in the gray space where love, abuse, and accountability collide.

This week on True Crime This Week, Vanessa Richardson revisits two courtroom battles that defined true crime in the 1990s. First, the sensational Menendez brothers trial, where Lyle and Erik’s confession to murdering their parents collided with shocking abuse claims and a defense strategy that split the jury and ended in a mistrial.

From media-fueled trials to emotional testimony and verdicts that stunned the nation, this episode explores how justice plays out when killers take the stand—and how courts separate truth from manipulation.

The investigation into the disappearance of Olivia Hope and Ben Smart intensifies in this second episode, following detectives as they seize on 26-year-old Scott Watson as their primary suspect despite mismatched witness descriptions, a missing boat, and no bodies ever found. Carter and Vanessa examine the controversial forensic hair evidence, disputed scratch marks, shifting witness identifications, jailhouse informants, and the prosecution’s improvised “two-trip theory,” all of which led to Watson’s conviction in one of New Zealand’s most divisive murder cases. As key witnesses later recant and public skepticism grows, the episode explores decades of appeals, wavering public opinion, and the families’ painful search for closure—raising the haunting question of whether the truth about what happened to Olivia and Ben has ever truly been uncovered.Follow Murder: True Crime Stories on your podcast app: https://play.megaphone.fm/6g4bv3tos9yn9abg2yeakg To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

This week in crime history, we revisit two of the most infamous killers of the 20th century — men whose charm masked unimaginable evil.On December 30th, 1977, Ted Bundy slipped through the ceiling of his Colorado jail cell and vanished into the night, igniting one of the most infamous manhunts in American history. His escape would lead to more murders and cement his place as one of the world’s most notorious serial killers.Then, we travel back to January 3rd, 1972, when John Wayne Gacy — a seemingly ordinary suburban businessman known for his charity work and clown performances — claimed his first victim. Over the next six years, Gacy would lure and murder more than 30 young men, hiding many of their bodies beneath his home.Join Vanessa Richardson as she unpacks the twisted psychology and lasting impact of these two killers who redefined how America sees evil — reminding us that the most dangerous monsters often look just like everyone else.

This week in crime history, we revisit two of the most infamous kidnappings that shocked the world. In 1973, 17-year-old John Paul Getty III, grandson of one of the world’s richest men, was freed in southern Italy after five harrowing months in captivity. His ordeal exposed the cold greed and dysfunction of America’s wealthiest family.Then, we travel back to 1927 Los Angeles, where 12-year-old Marion Parker was abducted from her school by a man posing as her father’s coworker. What followed became one of the most gruesome and sensational kidnapping cases in U.S. history.From ransom demands and ruthless criminals to media frenzy and family betrayal, host Vanessa Richardson unpacks how these two abductions defined public obsession with wealth, innocence, and the dark side of desperation.

This week on True Crime This Week, host Vanessa Richardson examines two killings that shook the music world — both committed by fans whose admiration turned to obsession.First, in 1980, 25-year-old Mark David Chapman shot and killed John Lennon outside The Dakota in New York City. Once a devoted Beatles fan, Chapman’s delusions and fixation on The Catcher in the Rye pushed him to murder the very man whose music had once inspired him.Then, in 2004, heavy metal icon Dimebag Darrell Abbott of Pantera and Damageplan was gunned down on stage in Columbus, Ohio, by a mentally unstable fan who believed the guitarist had betrayed him.From rock legends to metal heroes, these stories reveal how fame, fanaticism, and untreated mental illness can collide — with devastating consequences.

This week on True Crime This Week, host Vanessa Richardson unravels two of history’s most mysterious vanishings — both stranger than fiction.First, in 1926, the “Queen of Mystery” herself, Agatha Christie, vanished after a late-night drive. Her abandoned car sparked an 11-day nationwide search that baffled police, fellow authors, and millions of readers. When she finally reappeared, Agatha claimed to remember nothing — leaving behind one of the greatest mysteries she ever created.Then, rewind to 1875, when infamous New York City politician William “Boss” Tweed escaped from jail after embezzling millions. His disappearance led to an international manhunt — and it was a political cartoon that finally brought him down.From literary legends to crooked power brokers, these disappearances prove that truth can be far more mysterious than fiction.

This week on True Crime This Week, host Vanessa Richardson explores the twisted lives of two of history’s most notorious prisoners. First, the story of Charles Manson, the manipulative cult leader whose “Family” turned peace and love into terror. From failed musician to prophet of “Helter Skelter,” Manson’s descent into madness culminated in one of the most chilling murder sprees in American history.
