In 1970s Houston, serial killer Dean Corll murdered at least 28 teenage boys with the help of two young accomplices he groomed and manipulated. When Corll turned on 17-year-old Wayne Henley and threatened to kill his girlfriend, Wayne made a decision that would unravel one of America's most horrific crime sprees. In today's second Killer of the Week episode, Vanessa Richardson and Dr. Tristin Engels examine the psychology of coercion, escalating violence, and what it finally takes to break free from an abuser's control.
