Matthew Cushing: A Compulsion to Kill

Today, Michelle and fellow mom, Claire, sit down to discuss Matthew Cushing and his unthinkable crime.

How did this young man from a good family end up doing such a terrible deed? After meeting him face to face, Michelle has some theories about what may have been going on in Matthew's brain, and it's something that all parents should be aware of.
