When people get married, they often promise to do anything for their new spouses. When the women profiled in this docuseries say they'll do anything, they mean anything. "For My Man" tells stories of women who have been arrested -- part of the growing female population in the criminal justice system -- for crimes that they committed in the name of love. The crimes committed range from becoming an inside informant at the DEA for a drug-addicted partner to turning on one's own family members at a jealous boyfriend's request, and even as extreme as going on a killing spree across the Midwest.
