Description

Two days after Christmas, 2011, Russ Faria came home from game night to find his wife, Betsy, dead. He was soon charged and convicted of her murder. But Russ Faria insisted he did not kill his wife. Betsy’s brutal murder set off a chain of events that would leave one man dead, another man implicated, and expose a diabolical scheme. It would also see Dateline NBC—the true-crime original—become a part of the never-ending saga that proves the old adage: Truth is stranger than fiction. This original series from Keith Morrison and Dateline defies all expectations.

They should be ashamed of themselves. Even embarrassed considering all their experience and training and were fooled by this looney.

After commercial breaks and endless recaps, about 10-20min real content every episode. Overrated tripe.

Unbelievable how cops, prosecutors and judges can RUIN a person's life just because they decided they don't like you... without even considering the actual evidence.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: You ALWAYS need a lawyer when being questioned by the police, ESPECIALLY if you are innocent! Why? Because their job is literally to arrest people! They care more about making an arrest than about finding the truth... Why? Because finding the truth is the courts' job!
