Fixing San Francisco

During the first year of the pandemic, San Francisco had more deaths from drug overdoses than Covid. In December, the mayor declared a state of emergency in parts of the city - in a desperate attempt to tackle the problem. In a spectacular U-turn, she declared the city needed 'tough love' and reversed her policies on defunding the police.

For Our World, James Clayton speaks to rough sleepers, addicts, and politicians and asks why one of the wealthiest cities in the world has had so many deaths from drugs. He looks at how the lethal drug fentanyl has ripped through the city and follows the story of a mother desperately trying to find her addicted son before it's too late. He also speaks to the two most important politicians in the city - the mayor and the district attorney - and explores why they disagree on how to fix San Francisco.

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.
