That's a Bad Sign

In 1977, Candy and Pat Montgomery moved to their dream home in a suburb of Dallas. Pat had a good job and Candy was a stay at home mom. On the outside, everything looked perfect... But in truth, Candy was bored with her life and wanted an affair to spice things up. The affair, which started out innocent enough, lead Candy down a dangerous path of deception and... murder. Then we dive into the story of NYC's cannibal cop Gilberto Valle. He was a married man with a child, but soon enough his wife (Kathleen Mangan) noticed his detachment and lack of a sex drive. She did some cyber snooping to save her marriage, but soon found that her husband was... a cannibal.
