Like Mother, Like Son

William Flanagan's Like Mother, Like Son recounts the sensational true case of handsome young playboy Jed Ardito, who strangled his beautiful Brooklyn girlfriend to death in an erotic frenzy. But this true crime story gets even stranger: seventeen years earlier, Ardito's mother Frances Victoria Ardito had her own illicit lover murdered.
