Talking Dateline: Deadly Obsession

Keith Morrison and Andrea Canning sit down to talk about Andrea’s episode, “Deadly Obsession.” In 2002, Mike Sisco and Karen Harkness were found murdered in Karen’s Topeka, Kansas, home. As the investigation into their deaths unfolded, a suspect emerged with close ties to one of the victims and a history of obsessive behavior. Andrea and Keith discuss the trail of circumstantial evidence that led to an arrest, followed by three trials. And they discuss the wisdom of a defendant choosing to represent themself at trial. Plus, they answer viewer and listener questions from social media. Have a question for Talking Dateline?
