About this listen

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the case of Harry Thaw, the wealthy heir who gunned down architect Stanford White in front of hundreds of witnesses. The motive? A toxic mix of jealousy and vengeance over Thaw’s wife, Evelyn Nesbit, a young model and actress who had been sexually assaulted by White years earlier. The case ignited a national scandal, revealing a world of exploitation, obsession, and privilege among New York’s elite. Candice examines how Thaw’s deep-seated insecurities, violent temper, and fixation on revenge collided in a deadly way.
