SEASON 2
Inside Evil with Chris Cuomo returns featuring CNN anchor Chris Cuomo’s exclusive final interview with convicted serial killer, Andrew Urdiales. Cuomo speaks with Urdiales on the day he is sent to death row and tries to understand why this madman chose to kill multiple women in cold blood. Was he insane? Did he hate women? Were there clues in his childhood?
Over five one-hour episodes, Cuomo investigates how nature versus nurture shaped some of America’s most dangerous criminals and led them down deadly paths of destruction. Speaking at length with the killers, the victims who experienced the violence, as well as detectives, scientists and experts who have studied the cases, Cuomo seeks out the science and psychology of evil.
This season of Inside Evil also features interviews with Paris Lee Bennett who killed his 4-year-old-sister when he was just 13 and is serving 40 years in prison; Lisa Harris, who as a teen committed a violent murder which she says was an act of revenge; and Sing Sing inmate No. 04A0823, John J. Lennon, who is currently serving a 28-year-to-life sentence for the cold-blooded murder of a fellow drug dealer and has traded his gun for a pen in prison.
