  Speaker 1: Hi guys, Nancy Grace here we at Crime Stories are
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: so thrilled to partner with USA Network and the brand
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: new season of Dirty John The Betty Broderick Story. This
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: series is based on a true crime that becomes a
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: national obsession. I remember the real live saga of Betty
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: and Dan Broderick so well, and it is a shocker.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: You know, when you say till death do us part?
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: I don't think that included Betty Broderick, and I remember
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: everyone was on pins and needles as the investigation and
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: then the trial unfolded. You know. On the outside, Betty
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Broderick and her husband, Dan Broderick were like the perfect couple.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Betty had worked many, many jobs, and she was raising
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: their children and supporting Dan Broderick all the way through
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: law school. And as I recall, Dan Broderick was not
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: only a lawyer, but she helped put him through medical
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: school as well, which made him the perfect lawyer for
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: medical malpractice cases, which means juching money, money money. Well,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: he graduated, he got an awesome job. They moved to California. Seemingly,
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: as soon as they moved to California, everything started going sideways.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Dan Broderick hired a former airline flight attendant to be
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: his legal assistant. I'm not questioning her qualifications because she
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: apparently did a pretty good job. But Betty Broderick almost
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: immediately thought that Dan was having an affair. Well, she
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: was right, don't ask the question you don't want to
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: hear the answer to and he moved out of the house. Well,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: they had a straight for divorce, one of the most
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: infamous divorce cases of all time, and that was the
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: word on the street before it ended with Dan and
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: brand new wife dead, not just dead, but shot dead
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: in their bed. There were so many twists and turns
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: as the real life events unfolded, and based on this
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: shocking true crime, our partners at USA Network have adapted
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: the Betty Broderick case into a TV series USA Networks
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Dirty John. The Betty Broderick story goes beyond all the
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: headlines of a deadly divorced and explores the relationship of
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Dan and Betty Broderick, how the times they lived in
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: may have shaped their lives and their marriage. All the
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: turmoil that arises from a twist of relationship, a love triangle,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: bitter jealousy, and shocking events that seemingly led Betty Broderick
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: to the breaking point of murder, and of course they've
• 2:48
