About this listen

“She was the teacher. He was the student. Their secret affair should have ended in whispers… instead, it ended with a gunshot.”

In 1990, a small New Hampshire town was shattered when Gregg Smart was found murdered in his own home—executed in cold blood. At the center of the storm? His wife, Pamela Smart, and her teenage lover, Billy Flynn. What began as a forbidden romance quickly spiraled into betrayal, manipulation, and one of the most shocking murder-for-hire plots in American history.

This episode dives deep into the affair that captivated a nation, the trial that became America’s first gavel-to-gavel televised courtroom drama, and the haunting question that lingers decades later: was Pamela Smart a cold-blooded mastermind—or a woman trapped in a web of lust and lies too big to escape?

Prepare for a story of passion turned poisonous, a husband betrayed, and a nation glued to the screen. This isn’t just true crime—it’s a chilling reminder of how far obsession can go when love turns lethal.
