A Lie to Die For is a true crime series produced by Oxygen that premiered in June 2019. The show explores cases where lies have deadly consequences. Each episode features a different case and focuses on the lies that were told and the impact they had on the people involved. The show is hosted by a team of experts, including forensic psychologist Joni E. Johnston, clinical psychologist Judy Ho, and attorney Caroline Klidonas.

The show's format is similar to other true crime shows, with interviews, reenactments, and archival footage used to tell the story of each case. However, A Lie to Die For puts a special emphasis on the psychology behind the lies, exploring the motivations and the thought processes of the people who told them. The show also highlights how easily lies can spiral out of control, leading to tragic consequences.

The experts on the show bring a unique perspective to each case. Joni E. Johnston's experience as a forensic psychologist allows her to analyze the behavior of the people involved and determine whether they were lying or telling the truth. Judy Ho's expertise as a clinical psychologist helps her understand the mental health factors that may have contributed to the lies. Caroline Klidonas' legal background enables her to explain the legal ramifications of the lies and how they impacted the case.

One of the strengths of A Lie to Die For is how it gives equal attention to both the victims and the perpetrators of the lies. The show does not shy away from the pain and suffering caused by the lies but also tries to understand why the people involved felt the need to lie in the first place. By exploring the psychology behind the lies, the show provides a nuanced and thought-provoking view of its cases.

The cases featured on the show range from high-profile murders to lesser-known crimes. Each episode is self-contained, so viewers can watch them in any order they choose. The cases are always presented in a clear and easy to understand manner, making the show accessible even to viewers who are not familiar with the legal or psychological aspects of the cases.

Overall, A Lie to Die For is a fascinating and engaging true crime series that provides a fresh perspective on the impact of lies in criminal cases. The show's combination of expert analysis and compelling storytelling makes it a must-watch for fans of the true crime genre.
