Plot Synopsis

THE FAMILY THAT SLAYS TOGETHER uses re-enactments and first-person interviews to tell real-life stories of family members who killed their own relative. Whether it's a mother conspiring to murder her husband or two siblings who killed their father, each 60-minute episode of this series focuses on one or two victims, including: Nikki Bamberg, who was shot in the head in her car when she dropped off her children to her estranged husband, with her ex-husband, Damon, and his mother, Sonya, as the prime suspects; Alberto Macias, who was found murdered in the home he was renovating, with his wife (Laura Hernandez), her son (Erick Camarillo) and Edgar Garcia accused of killing him so Laura could collect nearly $1 million from his life insurance policies; Winston George, who was found in the basement, hog-tied and suffocated with a plastic bag, with his wife (Darlene George) reporting a home invasion robbery but later being convicted of murder and conspiring to murder, along with her brother, Jeffrey Williams; Ralph Ludvik, who died of what appeared to be an accidental heroin overdose on Valentine's Day, with his wife (Debra Aquilina) and her son (Mark) accused of conspiring to kill Ralph; and many more people who were killed by family members.
