Overview
The program features non-fiction narratives of crimes committed by a partner in an abusive relationship.[1] The program is edited in a documentary style, using a central voice-over narration by Malikha Mallette, as well as interviews with people who have first-hand knowledge of the case, including law-enforcement officials, lawyers, journalists, friends and family members of both the victims and the accused. The first season was narrated by Lynn Whitfield.[1]
In 2014, a subject in one of the shows claimed he had been unfairly depicted as a killer, and filed suit for defamation against TV One and Jupiter in Maryland District Court, seeking $650,000 in damages.[4] The lawsuit was dismissed.[5]
