The new true crime series — from the creators of the award-winning podcast 'Father Wants Us Dead' — investigates the 1989 cold-case killing of a Princeton grande dame.
In the spring of 1989, New York City headlines screamed of a brutal attack in Central Park, one that would result in the wrongful conviction of five teens.
About halfway between the two cities, in the idyllic borough of Princeton, New Jersey, the crimes and discord of the outside world had always seemed so distant from the Ivy League town. That is, until the murder of Cissy Stuart. But while Cissy was gardening on April 2, 1989, someone went into the basement room where she kept her tools and stabbed her five times in the back. The killer padlocked the door and slipped away.“Father Wants Us Dead,”
When her body was discovered and police descended on her stately home a block from the prestigious university, clues were scarce. There was no obvious motive, no murder weapon and no reason anyone could think of that someone would want to kill Princeton’s grande dame.
