Evil Lives Here: My Child the Killer

S01E02 A Father's Pain

As detectives zero in on Robert Acremant as the murderer, his father, Ken, grapples with the shocking truth that his son is not the person he believed him to be. Ken faces an excruciating dilemma that no parent should ever encounter—reporting his own son to the police, fully aware that this decision will alter both their lives irreparably. In the aftermath, Robert harbors resentment towards Ken, leaving him to bear the burden of that choice in solitude.
