Donnie Wahlberg returns with another chilling tale in this week’s “Very Scary People.” The episode, titled “Thomas the Terrible,” focuses on the disturbing case of Yathomas Riley, a pro boxer whose promising career was overshadowed by a violent streak outside the ring.

Riley, a rising star in the boxing world, was known for his ferocious power and aggressive style in the ring. However, those same aggressive tendencies allegedly manifested outside the ropes, leading to disturbing accusations. Riley is alleged to have shot two women he claimed to have loved, raising questions about the blurred lines between his public persona and his private demons.

This episode will likely look into the psychological aspects of Riley’s case, exploring the potential link between his violent behavior and the brutal sport he dedicated his life to. Did boxing fuel his rage, or were deeper psychological issues at play?

“Very Scary People” airs Sundays at 9 PM on Investigation Discovery.
