Hernandez was brought up in a hyper masculine household with no alit to be the person he wanted to be.
There's just no justification for the xe committed But this docuseries shows the complexity of a broken mind.

Each episode opens with recordings of Epstein refuting the allegations of sex trafficking at a summons.
It then moves on to accounts from numerous women and law enforcement officials.
Was more harrowing than the sheer number of women involved.
It's just how many powerful people in business and entertainment were connected to Epstein.
While this series doesn't go as deep as you might like, it's still a fascinating watch and an all too familiar reminder that absolute power corrupts absolutely Number 2, the last dance.
Whether you're a sports fan or not, you'll thoroughly enjoy the last dance.

Number one, Tiger King.
If you've been living under a rock, you might have missed a phenomenon that was Tiger king.
Murder, mayhem and madness.
At the very beginning of the global lockdown, one docu series rose up to enthrall us all.
Tiger King Chronicles a fascinating tale of rivalry betrayal and murder.
The series for the most part follows Joe exotic, an eccentric gay gun toting redneck who owns a tiger sanctuary.
Over the course of the series, we see Joe's behavior grow more erratic and his intensifying obsession with rival sanctuary owner Carole Baskin.
