Talking Dateline: The Intruder

from Dateline NBC Hosted by Noe

Dennis Murphy and Andrea Canning sit down to talk about Andrea’s episode “The Intruder,” about a violent 2014 home invasion in Saco, Maine, that left Rachel Owens fighting for her life. Rachel survived but was left to deal with another devastating blow — her husband, Greg Owens, was behind the attack. Andrea, Dennis, and producer Brad Davis, discuss Greg’s secret double life, and the two women at the heart of the story: Rachel and Betsy Wandke. They also share a behind-the-scenes clip from Andrea’s interview with Betsy, who used to run a self-defense group, and share updates on where both women are today. Plus, they answer your questions from social media.Have a question for Talking Dateline?
