Mischief Night

On Halloween 1975, 15-year-old Martha Moxley is found bludgeoned to death just steps from her home in the ritzy Belle Haven neighborhood of Greenwich, Connecticut. The weapon of choice? A golf club. In the wake of the brutal murder, Greenwich police, more used to handing out traffic citations than conducting homicide investigations, find themselves in over their heads. 27 years after Martha's death, the case makes headlines again when Michael Skakel, neighbor to the Moxleys and relative of the Kennedy family, is convicted of Martha's murder, a crime he says he didn’t commit. After serving over 11 years in prison, Michael Skakel's conviction is overturned. Which raises the question of the series - if he didn't kill Martha Moxley, who did? Veteran journalist Andrew Goldman has spent the last decade reinvestigating the improbable series of events that led to Michael Skakel's murder conviction for murder and exploring alternate suspects. Coinciding with the 50th anniversary of Martha's murder, this 12-episode series features original interviews, newly unsealed evidence, and an exclusive interview with Michael Skakel, who’s never before spoken publicly about the case.
