Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSimilar to the Andrea Yates case in Texas. She drowned her five children in 2001.
- GoofsADA Carver was incorrect in stating that Paul Whitlock could not be held legally responsible for the deaths of his children and the suicide attempt of his wife. As he himself admits he knew that his wife had postpartum depression as well as suicidal tendencies, yet he did nothing to help her even after finding evidence she had tried to kill herself once before. Since it is common knowledge that mothers going through postpartum depression can be 10 times more likely to harm their children he should have known that he was not only placing his wife at grave risk of death, but his children as well. Which means he could be charged with murder in the second degree for the three children that died, specifically under the depraved indifference statute. By knowingly placing the lives of his wife and children in grave danger he was demonstrating a depraved indifference to human life.

Superb Performances in Powerful Episode
Powerful story with a simply amazing performance by Carrie Preston as a mother emotionally broken by her ultra controlling husband. This isn't a pleasant episode given the subject matter of child murder and the demented act of the mother but Preston is so moving in that difficult role that we actually feel compassion for her. Sam Robards is also excellent as the husband who has worked hard to put his wife in a position where she can do nothing right and always fails as a mother no matter how hard she tries. It is heart wrenching as the detectives follow the clues to the ugly conclusion. Kathryn Erbe is especially good and in her we see a professional trying to hold it together through a uniquely horrible case.
