In this episode of Crimes Of... Sabrina and Corinne unpack the
disturbing and deeply complex case of Susan Polk—a woman who
married her own therapist and, decades later, killed him. What
begins as a troubling story of blurred boundaries and unethical
behavior evolves into a marriage defined by power imbalances,
emotional control, and escalating instability. Rather than asking
whether Susan killed her husband—because she did—this episode
examines how a relationship rooted in grooming and manipulation
shaped the path to violence. Through a careful exploration of
Susan’s life, her marriage to Dr. Felix Polk, and the dynamics
that defined their relationship, this episode lives in the gray
space where love, abuse, and accountability collide.
