Should I Marry A Murderer (Netflix): My Secrets Aren't Deep or Dark, They're Shallow and Well-Lit
May 401:00:24Tap to summarizeIn this BYR episode, we dive into Netflix’s Should I Marry a Murderer?, a true crime documentary that unpacks one of the most uncomfortable intersections of love, trust, and morality. The film follows forensic pathologist Dr. Caroline Muirhead, whose whirlwind pandemic engagement to Sandy McKellar takes a shocking turn when he reveals his involvement in a fatal hit-and-run from his past.What starts as a fast-moving romance quickly becomes an emotional and ethical reckoning, as Caroline is forced to grapple with what it means to love someone whose history includes serious wrongdoing. We explore the immediate rupture that secrets can create in relationships, and how trust is tested when the truth surfaces after deep emotional investment.The episode also examines the broader moral and legal questions at play: whether loyalty to a partner can or should extend to protecting them from consequences, and how personal ethics collide with emotional attachment in high-stakes situations like this one. At its core, this conversation is about ambiguity—how relationships rarely fit into clean categories of right and wrong, and how love can exist alongside deep uncertainty. We break down what the documentary reveals about communication, accountability, and the limits of understanding another person fully, even in intimacy.If you’ve ever wondered how far empathy should extend in the face of moral failure, or what you might do if someone you loved revealed something that changed everything, this episode sits right in that uncomfortable gray zone.BYR average rating: 6.5/10Number of episodes: 3 (~3h runtime)Binge In Progress: Paradise, Widow's Bay, Margot's Got Money Troubles
