Hey, true crime friends! This week we are talking about a
complicated and nuanced case that hit the media by storm- the attack of John Wayne Bobbitt by his wife, Lorena Bobbitt.
While the media focused on the salacious aspects of this
case, they completely ignored the darker sides of the couple's relationship.
Theme Song: Pisces by Anne Sophie Andersen
