This week (another listener recommendation), Syd and Jess are here to tell you the tragic story of heiress Ann Cooper Hewitt, who woke up from what she thought was a routine appendectomy to hear the nurses tell her mother that she "didn't suspect a thing." Scandal, rumors, and forced sterilization - this week's story is about one woman who took her mother to court over what she said was a greedy attempt to steal Ann's inheritance.
