Andrea Yates drowned her five young children in her Texas home, a crime that stunned the nation and raised enduring questions about mental illness, culpability, and the limits of the justice system. Now, a new Investigation Discovery docuseries, The Cult Behind the Killer: The Andrea Yates Story, examines whether fear-based religious teachings may have influenced Yates during a period of severe postpartum psychosis. Law&Crime’s Angenette Levy breaks down the documentary’s claims with Wendell Odom, one of the attorneys who represented Yates at trial, to examine what really happened — and what may still be misunderstood — in this episode of Crime Fix — a daily show covering the biggest stories in crime.
