Sword And ScaleSeason 1Sword and Scale Episode 23
What could be more horrifying than a mother intentionally taking the life of her own child? The fact that there's even a word in the English language that describes it: "filicide", is shocking in itself. Episode 23 covers some of the more famous cases like Andrea Yates and Casey Anthony, as well as the deplorable recent case of Megan Huntsman and her garage of nightmares. We also touch on more recent cases, such as Microwave Mom China Arnold and the attempted murder suicides of Elaine Campione and Julia Murray, each of which failed their intended outcome for entirely different reasons.
