FAMILY STRIFE ENDS A LIFE IN AN ALL NEW “SNAPPED” ON OXYGEN, SUNDAY MARCH 20 AT 9PM ET/PT

NEW YORK – March 15, 2011 – A truck driver’s mysterious death leaves a ring of suspects in an all new one-hour episode of Oxygen’s “Snapped,” premiering Sunday, March 20th at 9 PM ET/PT. Each chilling installment offers gritty details, interviews and a deeper look into the minds of the women who snapped.

A wild child with a rebellious streak, Marcia Kelly easily earns a reputation stirring up trouble in her small Texan town. When she finds a partner in crime, James Kelly, the pair begins a tumultuous relationship that spirals out of control. After James returns from prison and tragedy strikes Marcia’s family, the couple is able to find the stability they need within each other, but their new bliss does not last for long. When James’ body is found in their home, fingers initially point to Marcia’s daughter Shaina and her friends. As the police uncover new evidence, accusations point in another direction. Could Marcia be to blame for orchestrating her husband’s death? Or did Shaina’s hate for her step-father cause his fatal end?

“Snapped” features everyday average moms, wives and girlfriends who in a fit of rage ‘snap’ and allegedly commit murder. Did they really do it? And if so, why? Was it a cheating spouse, years of constant abuse or that dirty dish in the sink? Whatever the situation, the women share a common bond–they all SNAPPED!
