In 2015, Dr. Teresa Sievers, a holistic-medicine doctor in Bonita Springs, Florida, was beaten to death in her kitchen. The killers were her husband Mark’s childhood best friend and doppelgänger, Wayne, and a Missouri ex-con who called himself Jimmy the Hammer. Writer and psychoanalyst Mikita Brottman, author of A Double Life, explains how a swinging marriage, a rival anti-aging guru, and a murder plot hatched at a wedding led to one of Florida’s strangest crimes.
Brottman also shares a Freudian reading of Mark and Wayne’s bond, and why she thinks Florida produces so many bizarre true-crime stories.
