With a uniquely colorful cast of local residents as tour guides, the two-part documentary explores the shifting landscape of a grisly murder, the toxic relationship of two ex-lovers, a vulnerable victim, and the unreliable accounts of flawed individuals on trial for their lives. HBO Documentary Films presents MURDER IN GLITTERBALL CITY, A World of Wonder Production.
