The result is a chilling conversation unlike anything seen before, exploring the years leading to the crime and the hell the perpetrators put their own loved ones through.
Evil Lives Here: The Killer Speaks asks questions the killers have never been asked before, resulting in powerful, disturbing and contentious encounters.
