True Crime: The Court of Public Opinion - Under the Influence - The Bizarre Death of Michael Malloy
In 1933, during the depths of the Great Depression, Michael Malloy’s resilience turned him into an unwitting target for murder. A group of men—later known as the ‘Murder Trust’—hatched a scheme to profit from Malloy’s death by taking out multiple life insurance policies on him. What they thought would be a quick profit turned into a disturbing and darkly absurd series of failed murder attempts, with Malloy returning each day, seemingly unharmed.
As the conspirators’ desperation grew, so did their methods, leading to an outcome that left the public stunned. Join Alexis Knight as she unpacks the chilling story of Michael Malloy’s endurance, the greed that drove five men to moral ruin, and the haunting questions it raises about justice and human nature.
