Although the most well-known case of Munchausen syndrome involved a woman, according to webMD, it’s actually more common for men to have the disorder. Tonight we’re talking about Jack Barron, the first man recorded to be suffering from Munchausen by Proxy. Jack loved the attention he received after his wife mysteriously died so much so that he desperately needed more. When his four-year-old son died just a few months later, the community thought he must be the unluckiest man alive. They rallied around him, showing him nothing but love and support. But when Jack’s young daughter also suddenly passed away too, the police decided it was time to take a closer look.
You won’t believe the final act Jack took that would break this case wide open.
