Tina and Hillary cover former East Chicago Councilman Robert Battle and former FBI Agent Mark Felt.
Tina’s Story
Robert Battle began his career as City Councilman for East Chicago in 2011. But, when he is accused of murder along with possession and distribution of drugs a few years later, the embattled Battle tries desperately to hold on to his position.
Hillary’s Story
Associate FBI Director Mark Felt had a successful career with the FBI and had a hand in bringing down the White House during Watergate. But, it would be his own unlawful actions that brought down his own career.
