I decided to watch Maternal Instinct, the true crime documentary by Jessica Dimmock (Unsolved Mysteries, The Texas Killing Fields) that landed on Netflix on June 12, after seeing a comment on social media that couldn’t help but pique my curiosity: “It’s one of those stories where every minute you think nothing more shocking could happen, and then it does.” And indeed, this very American true story of deception and manipulation, which culminated in unprecedented violence, has something both hypnotic and aberrant about it. Even though it all begins with a scene we’ve seen countless times on screen: a young woman,…
