1	1	"Obsession"	Chris Thorburn		February 08, 2005
Obsessions can take many forms: beauty, devotion, ego and power. In 16th century Central Europe, Elizabeth Báthory, a Hungarian noblewoman, was obsessed with youth and beauty. According to legend, Báthory murdered as many as 650 young woman believing that drinking their blood would preserve her youth. Báthory became known as the "Blood Countess." In Romania during the 1920's and 30's, Vera Renczi's fears of infidelity and abandonment ostensibly caused her to murder the men in her life. Renczi poisoned her husbands, lovers and one son with arsenic before placing their bodies in zinc-lined coffins in her wine cellar. In New Orleans during the early 19th century, French socialite Delphine LaLaurie was believed to be a cruel sadist who beat, tortured, and performed medical experiments on slaves in the basement of her mansion. And in Washington State, Linda Burfield Hazzard, a doctor and a delusional "fasting specialist," believed she could "heal" her patients through exhausting diets and starvation. Hazzard's practice of starvation resulted in the death of a visiting English heiress in 1911.
2	2	"Greed"	Chris Thorburn		February 15, 2005

The two sisters became known as "The Black Widows of Liverpool."
3	3	"Revenge"	Chris Thorburn		February 22, 2005
Crimes of revenge are usually single acts of passion. But sometimes the female killer is driven by a deeper, smoldering anger. These are women who border on the pathological who kill and kill again. In New South Wales, Australia, Katherine Knight brutally stabbed her de facto husband to death in the early morning hours of February 29, 2000 before dismembering him and using parts of the body to cook up a grisly stew. Knight was convicted in October 2001 and became the first Australian woman to receive a life sentence without the possibility of parole. The Blanche Taylor Moore, Ruth Ellis and Lainz Angels of Death cases are also profiled in this episode.
