E1Quella notteDurante una notte di metà giugno del 1993, una giovane donna evira suo marito in presunto impeto di rabbia. Le versioni contrastanti di John e Lorena Bobbitt fanno il giro del mondo e giungono in tribunale. La nazione prende le parti mentre una nuova battaglia tra i sessi alimenta un vorace ciclo continuo di notizie televisive. - A Woman in Trouble
E2A Woman in Trouble"Acquitted of rape, John became a celebrity while Lorena stood trial, facing decades in prison. TV cameras recorded her ordeal as prosecutors attacked her relentlessly-a jealous shrew, a liar and thief. But though John proved a poor witness, and her lawyers demonstrated years of domestic abuse, it looked doubtful that they could prove she was legally insane the night she cut off his penis." - An Irresistible Impulse
E3An Irresistible Impulse"As Lorena's trial resumed, all agreed she had been abused. But was she legally insane when she attacked John? Millions stayed glued to their TVs as her testimony reached the fateful night she lost all control. Her lawyers had to prove she was under the influence of an "irresistible impulse," a defense that rarely worked. As momentum seemed to swing against her, a surprise witness took the stand." - The Cycle of Abuse
E4The Cycle of Abuse"Millions of TV viewers sat glued to their sets to see what fate Lorena would meet. Would she be found guilty and deported? Found not guilty and have the opportunity to rebuild? John and Lorena would set out on wildly different paths-- John chased fame in a self-destructive downward spiral, while Lorena had to come to grips with the scars of her ordeal, no matter the verdict."
