A half-hour true crime series chronicling the lives of female criminals and what made them snap. These shocking but true stories turn the expectations about crime and criminals upside down.

The stories begin in ordinary cities, towns and suburbs with women who have normal lives and dreams. What pushes these seemingly ordinary women to become evil?

Donna Somerville was a former hospice nurse and wife of gentleman farmer and Dupont heir Hamilton Somerville.

When Hamilton dies suddenly while eating dinner in his bed, the authorities assumed he died of natural causes until an autopsy revealed massive amounts of morphine, codeine, and oxycodone in Hamilton’s stomach.

With new evidence of foul play, police arrested Donna Somerville for murder. At trial before a Virginia judge, there wasn’t enough evidence to prove that Donna was responsible for her husband’s death, and she was acquitted.
