When the "Zoo Man" was finally caught, the legal battle that followed became even more bizarre than the crimes themselves. Thomas Huskey’s defense claimed he wasn't responsible for the murders; instead, they pointed the finger at "Kyle," a violent, British-accented alter ego who allegedly emerged during the killings. Join us as we examine the controversial use of Dissociative Identity Disorder in the courtroom, the validity of "Kyle," and how a series of legal technicalities allowed a suspected serial killer to escape the death penalty—even after a confession
