Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2289589/open_sms] Welcome back Valkyires and welcome to today’s episode, where we pull back the curtain on one of the entertainment industry’s most elusive con artists. A woman who built her empire not on talent or creativity, but on lies, manipulation, and money that wasn’t hers.  She called herself an heiress. A Hollywood power player. A woman who could open doors with a single phone call. But behind the glamour and promises was something else—was something sinister. Millions of dollars went missing. Lawsuits piled up. And the victims? Left with shattered finances, broken trust, and unanswered questions. This is the story of Mary Carole McDonnell.
