When Women Kill

Sun, Nov 3, 201942 mins

The vast majority of murders are committed by men: Only 11% of convicted murderers are women. What accounts for this gender divide? Is there something innate and deep in our natures that allows us to kill, or are we products of circumstance? And what should we make of women who break the mold - and commit the worst of all crimes? Lisa will meet women convicted of murder, from a new mother who suffocated her infant daughter to a survivor of domestic violence who killed her abuser. Over the course of the hour, Lisa will come to see how female murderers are different from the sensationalized "black widow" "scorned lover" or "gold digger" personas we see portrayed by the media. And through that journey, she may discover that the people society deems most evil are in fact not that different from the rest of us.
