A WOMAN SCORNED: DAN AND LINDA'S TWISTED ROLE IN BETTY BRODERICK'S STORY | TRUE CRIME DOCUMENTARY

Betty Broderick didn’t just shoot her ex-husband and his new wife in 1989 — she walked into a years-long psychological and legal war that most people never hear about. She shot and killed her ex-husband Dan Broderick and his new wife Linda Kolkena in their bed in 1989 after a brutal five-year divorce. This true crime documentary explores Dan and Linda’s twisted role in pushing Betty to the edge — the lesser-known power plays, financial control tactics, and petty provocations that rarely get discussed. You'll hear about the specific September 1986 letter where Dan created his own “fining system” — deducting $100 for every offensive word Betty said on the phone, $250 if she came near his house, $500 if she entered, and ....... down to just $2,300 (and sometimes into the negative). Plus the anonymous weight-loss and wrinkle-cream ads allegedly sent by Linda, and the photo captioned “Eat your heart out, B !” Look, Betty was dramatic, harassing, and should have gotten therapy instead of retaliating — but these actions created a pressure cooker. At the end of the day, Betty is fully responsible for the murders and is serving 32-to-life.
