About this Episode

Tina and Hillary cover former Delaware deputy attorney general Thomas Capano and former US Senator Larry Craig of Idaho.

Tina's Story
Thomas Capano rose to power as a successful attorney, deputy attorney general, political consultant, and legal counsel to former Governor Mike Castle. But, when his mistress, Ann Marie Fahey disappeared after a night out, Capano's true nature is unmasked.

Hillary's Story
In 1990, Larry Craig ran for and won a US Senate seat for Idaho and became a ranking member of several committees, but when Craig was arrested at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport for suspicion of disorderly conduct of a sexual nature, Craig’s “wide stance” excuse didn’t cut it.
