The Stranger Beside Me

Jamie, a graduate of the University of Michigan, moved to Phoenix and got a high-paying job in medical sales. When she joined a local university alumni group, Jamie fell for a handsome young member named Bryan Stewart. The couple dated for a year and lived together for two. Then Jamie went missing. While searching for her, detectives found evidence that Bryan had been lying to Jamie, and police, about who he is. Bryan is actually Rick Wayne Valentini. Ten years ago he changed his identity illegally, and moved from Michigan to Phoenix to "start over." But the life he left behind led detectives to suspect that Bryan is more than just a con man. In his only interview, the man who insists he is Bryan Stewart talks with 48 HOURS MYSTERY correspondent Erin Moriarty about changing his name, his relationship with Jamie and his claim that he helped her disappear. The broadcast also features exclusive interviews with Jamie's family and friends, Bryan's aunt and daughter, and lead investigators in the case.

Snapped

Who are these women and what drives them to kill? Oxygen's hit true crime series, Snapped, profiles fascinating cases of women accused of murder. Did they really do it? And if they did, why? Whether the motivation is revenge against a cheating husband, the promise of a hefty insurance payoff, or putting an end to years of abuse, the reasons are as varied as the women themselves. From socialites to secretaries, female killers share one thing in common: at some point, they all snapped. Each episode of Snapped chronicles the life of a woman who has been charged with murder. These shocking but true stories turn common assumptions about crime and criminals upside down, and prove that even the most unlikely suspects can be capable of murder.
