Joyce Season 1 Episode 39

In 2008, María Ángeles Molina — known as “Angi” — was arrested for orchestrating what investigators called the “perfect murder.”

By the time police caught her, she had faked being a lawyer, psychologist, cancer patient, and even a mother. Her victim? A close friend whose identity she tried to steal — just one piece in a dark web of fraud, lies, and murder.

In this episode, we explore the case of the woman who fooled everyone: the manipulation, the murder of Ana María Páez, the suspicious death of her husband, and the stunning legal drama surrounding Netflix’s banned documentary Angi: Fake Life, True Crime.

Who is Angi — and how many more secrets does she still hide?
