You know, sometimes a small thing in life can really change everything.

That's what happened when high school student Susan May Bowling

was sent to a psychotherapist for treatment of her depression and anxiety.

Her therapist, Dr Felix Polk, was married with two children, but that didn't stop him from beginning a sexual relationship with Susan.

Susan and Felix Polk ended up getting married in 1982, shortly after he had divorced his wife.

Despite the huge 26-year age difference,

they seemed pretty happy.

But with several years of marriage

and raising their three sons together,

the couple had a contentious relationship.

This resulted in more than one call to the police with allegations of domestic violence.

Join us at the quiet end for May December murder. When

Dr Felix Polk was found dead at age 70, their youngest son Gabriel blamed his

mother Susan. Their oldest son Adam called Susan Kuku. And

Susan herself just seemed unfazed by her husband's death, leading investigators to contend that she had planned his murder and her motive

was money.

So Dick, I think you're going to enjoy this discussion.

We've talked about this case a little bit in preparation and it is just for lack of a better word crazy

It is bizarre. That's for sure
