Screen Rant can exclusively present a sneak peek from tonight's episode of Mind Over Murder, courtesy of HBO. The jaw-dropping docuseries was directed by award-winning documentary filmmaker Nanfu Wang (In the Same Breath, One Child Nation) and explores the chilling tale of the Beatrice 6, a group of people in a small Nebraska town who confessed to the murder of elderly Helen Wilson and then were all shockingly exonerated by DNA decades later.

Mind Over Murder is a tale of extreme psychological complexity, which dives into the prejudices of the town, the theater which the investigation turned into, and the pain still being suffered by the victim's family.
