Examining what caused three women to murder innocent people.

Southern belle Louise Peete shot and killed multiple partners – leaving a trail of blood and bodies behind her before the state took her life in the gas chamber. Instead of divorce, horse owner Jane Dorotik chose to murder her husband so she wouldn't have to share the money she planned on spending on her own ranch. Teresa Lewis and two secret lovers shot her husband and his son for life insurance, but they didn't plan it well and the men didn't die until after the cops showed up.

Rachel Wade and Sarah Luderman engage in an online battle for the affections of a boy and the battle enters the real world. When Sarah takes one risk too many by confronting Rachel at a house after humiliating her online, Rachel is armed with a knife and uses it to effectively kill Sarah. Caroline Young was so upset at the thought of losing her grandson to his biological father, she stabs both her grand-kids (ages 6 and 4) and also stabs herself (but survives) and all of this is while her daughter and the kids' mother is watching. Elizabeth Duncan had only one man who always stuck by her - her son Frank. So when Frank marries his pregnant girlfriend (who helped nurse Elizabeth back to health after attempting suicide) in a private ceremony, Elizabeth taunts them with phone calls and hires two amateur criminals to kidnap and kill Frank's pregnant wife and their unborn child.
