The White Mink Coat

On an April evening in 1989, Marianne Lewis and her husband were headed into Boston for what appeared to be a special night at the theater.

They would never make it to the show.

Inside a Boston parking garage, Marianne was struck by a speeding car and left with catastrophic injuries. What initially appeared to be a horrific hit-and-run would remain largely unexplained for years.

But this was no accident.

In this episode of Murders in Massachusetts, we uncover the extraordinary story behind The White Mink Coat—a troubled marriage, a carefully planned night in Boston, and the investigation that would eventually reveal a far more sinister plot.

It’s a story of betrayal, survival, and a conspiracy that almost remained hidden.
