Americans have an insatiable appetite for true crime. But few seem to be losing sleep after a midnight snack of terrifying true tales. Mike seeks answers to why this genre is so widely successful from Scott Bonn, author of "Why We Love Serial Killers: The Curious Appeal of the World's Most Savage Murderers," and Erin Moriarty from "48 Hours" on CBS, who know a thing or two about why Americans can't get their fill of murders and mayhem.
