Fraud Week: Fiancé Doctor Pulls Off Personal and Medical Fraud, with Journalist Benita Alexander | Ep. 814

It's Fraud Week on the Megyn Kelly Show, and we begin with the story of former NBC producer and journalist Benita Alexander, and her ex-fiancé Dr. Paolo Macchiarini. Alexander talks about how she met Macchiarini for a report she was working on about regenerative medicine, his personality and confidence, what drew her to him personally, the way he seemed with patients, how it started to fall apart, the tactics her fiancé used to keep up the fraud like "love bombing" and other signs of narcissism and arrogance, the thrill some people get from lying and conning people, the secret client list he said he had involving The Clintons and the pope, her fiancé's lies about the pope marrying them, his actual relationship with the Vatican, why he chose to amplify the lies he was telling, whether he was a pathological liar and sociopath, how she came to find out her fiancé had been living a double life and lying to her, the revelations about multiple families, what happened after she confronted him, how the con of Dr. Paolo Macchiarini was beyond just personal but professional and medical, the reality of the supposedly innovative plastic windpipe surgery he spearheaded, advice for other women on how to spot the red flags, and more.
