An anthology of True Crime detailing the exploits of murderous women, young and old. This anthology is headlined by "The Prom Mom". If ever there was a case where the facts tell just a fraction of the story, then it is the one of Melissa Drexler.
The bare details-teenage woman attends the school prom, gives birth to a baby, murders it, and returns to the dance floor-suggest a woman of such callousness that she should still be incarcerated twenty years after her crime. But there is so much more to this story than the tip of the iceberg presented above. Below the surface exists a body of deadly details that suggest such a crime is deserving of forensic examination, not just of the bloody and tragic evidence that was tried in court, but in a way that might offer us a deeper insight into the reasons why such horrors can occur.
