About this episode

As we wrap up this year's special edition Love Gone Wrong stories from 90s Crime Time, today's episode is one that's been in the making for a while. It takes place in the old money town of Warrenton, Virginia in 1997, where crime was unheard of. However in the late summer of 1997, the people of the ultra wealthy circles in town would be embarressed when they learned not only a heinous murder had occurred here... but that it was committed by one of their own... and it would leave people wondering how they managed to get to this point.
