Susan Smith Carla Thompson

An anthology of True Crime. The idea of a mother who kills her children will always capture the attention of the nation, and in some cases the entire world will tune in as they did in Smith's situation, at first with sympathy and then with outrage. Why would someone commit the most unspeakable of acts? How could a mother kill her child? In 1994, these questions were asked of Susan Smith, a young woman living in Union of South Carolina during an unusual case.
