One that ended with Derrick’s family accusing Anna of sexual assault.In his documentary Tell Them You Love Me, director Nick August Perna explores Anna and Derrick’s relationship – and the complicated questions it forces us to confront.For ad-free listening to Crime Story, subscribe to CBC's True Crime Premium channel on Apple Podcasts.Feedback for us?
