Real Crime - Il caso di John List

In this real-crime case, I'll tell you a story that shocked America. We're in Westfield, in the early 1970s, where the apparent perfection of the middle class hid unsuspected tensions. At the center of this drama is John List, a methodical, rigid accountant obsessed with financial success as a sign of divine grace. With his family, John lived in a lavish but expensive Victorian mansion. When a series of layoffs dragged him into financial ruin, the man, unable to face the shame of failure, developed a distorted and frightening logic. To prevent his loved ones from falling into poverty and sin, he planned their extermination as an absurd act of spiritual mercy.
