S16E14: Mother | Barbara Daly Baekeland

Some stories shoot right past "trashy" and head straight for "disturbing," and that is the case of murdered socialite Barbara Daly Baekeland. Alicia recounts the troubling life and times of a family beset by mental illness and too much money, and the tragedy that unfolded as a result.
