Based on the articles and breakout true crime podcast with over 30 million downloads from Los Angeles Times reporter Christopher Goffard, "Dirty John" tells the cautionary tale of how a whirlwind romance between Debra Newell (Golden Globe nominee Connie Britton) and the charismatic con-man John Meehan (Eric Bana) spiraled into a frightening web of deception, denial and mental terror that nearly tore a family apart.
Created by Alexandra Cunningham and directed by Jeffrey Reiner, the eight hour-long episodes are produced by Universal Cable Productions (UCP), in association with Los Angeles Times Studios and Atlas Entertainment. Cunningham and Reiner both serve as executive producers along with Richard Suckle and Charles Roven for Atlas Entertainment; Mark Herzog, Christopher G. Cowen and Chris Argentieri for Los Angeles Times Studios. EPISODE 105: "Lord High Executioner" AIRS SUNDAY, DECEMBER 23 at 10/9cVideos
