Episode 46: 039: Final Appeal And There's Something Wrong With Aunt Diane

Oxygen starts 2018 with Final Appeal, which is basically MTV's Unlocking The Truth with different personnel and slower pacing. Did Patty Prewitt kill her husband? What's going on with the threatening phone calls? And was key evidence seriously just sitting in a sheriff's office storage locker for nearly 35 years? We had a lot of questions about the Prewitt case, but not nearly as many as we still have after we've each watched legendarily unsettling HBO doc There's Something Wrong With Aunt Diane several times. What exactly prompted supermom and cable exec Diane Schuler to down 10 shots and drive the wrong way on a highway? How does her avenging sister-in-law get her hair to do that thing it does? And is the fact that we'll never know for sure what makes this case so compelling? Like Loni Coombs says up top, sometimes you don't get answers, but we're asking anyway in the latest The Blotter Presents.  SHOW NOTES Watch Final Appeal (http://www.oxygen.com/final-appeal) More background (https://www.law.georgetown.edu/news/web-stories/community-justice-project-case-featured-on-final-appeal.cfm) on the Prewitt case Watch There's Something Wrong With Aunt Diane (https://play.hbogo.com/feature/urn:hbo:feature:GVU3eoAuW8VFvjSoJAYhG) Steve Fishman's piece on the Schuler tragedy for New York (http://nymag.com/news/features/62043/) Learn more about your ad choices.
