7-8pm -- CITY CONFIDENTIAL(r) - 122 - Knoxville, TN: Phantom Hitman
In the 1990s, the financial and social hub of Appalachia was a mix of

when a love triangle involving his wife and the church organist almost
led to murder and a comedy of errors.

8-9pm -- Notorious - Mothers Who Kill.
A mother kills her child. It's a crime as old as Greek mythology, yet
it's just as shocking today when the stories of Andrea Yates, Marilyn
Lemak, and Susan Smith show up in the news. When women kill their
children, are they always insane or do some of them make clear-cut,
cold-blooded choices? We pose the question to psychiatrists,
prosecutors, and guilty mothers themselves and find some surprising
insights and answers.

9-10pm -- BIOGRAPHY(r) - Rob Lowe
He's had a meteoric rise to fame in the '80s, co-starring with fellow

derail his career, Lowe got back on track and officially took his
career off life support when he joined the cast of The West Wing. His
role in the TV hit earned him his third and fourth Golden Globe

A look at how a confession--whether true or false--can harm a

The incredible story of the British doctor believed responsible for
killing hundreds of his patients, mostly through intravenous drugs. In
1998, concerns by local undertakers and physicians spurred a quiet
police inquiry into Shipman's high patient death rate, but poor
investigative work turned up nothing suspicious. He was finally nabbed

of one of his victims. Shipman hanged himself in jail in 2004.

Toronto police officer in the bizarre slayings of two nurses nearly 30
years ago. Toronto Police records indicated that Ronald Glen West was

killer of the two nurses. Making use of modern profiling and

convicted and sentenced to two concurrent life sentences. He is also
being probed as the possible answer to the "Ottawa Valley Serial
Killer" enigma, which covers almost 15 years and seven brutal
killings.

New London, Connecticut is New England's original rough-and-tumble
fishing town. It's a city so historically bawdy and barbaric that
fishermen simply referred to it as "the Old Bucket of Blood". Though
New London is basically a blue-collar town, the snooty suburbs that

Immediately, the visions appear: the pungent smell of cars and oil and
the name Michael. Meanwhile, rookie cop Gary Micco and colleague
George Deuchar have a suspect named Michael in custody; but the
detectives are forced to release him because of the lack of evidence
of a crime. Weber and Micco connect via a mutual acquaintance and
Weber shares what she knows with the detective. When Rachel's body is
found buried in the woods, just as Weber described, Micco visits Weber
again. She assures him the killer will soon be captured--he's in the

Weber had described it. The seasoned psychic and the green cop have

Now an accomplished food star and restaurateur, Flay picked up cooking
at the age of 17 at theatre row favorite, Joe Allen's, where he came
under the watchful of Joe himself. Mr. Allen was so impressed with the
teen's knack for cookery that he paid his tuition to the French
Culinary Institute. First being introduced to Southwestern ingredients
and influences by restaurant owner Jonathan Waxman, Flay made these a
part of the distinctive style that led him rapidly up the "Foodie"
ladder of success. Now a TV star of his own shows, a food
correspondent for CBS's The Early Show and author of a number of
stellar cook books including the hugely popular "Boy Meets Grill,"
Flay's star continues to rise.
