Paolo Macchiarini: Dr. Death

Former FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong digs deeper into the case of Paolo Macchiarini, the subject of Wondery's podcast and the new season of Peacock's TV series Dr. Death.

Candice examines how this star surgeon continued to rise even as his victims were falling; and what compelled him to continue his deception.
