The star of the series "Sex in the Big City" Cynthia Nixon took part in the American TV show "Who do you think you are?" (WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE), in which the stars with the help of specialists in genealogy have the opportunity to learn about who their ancestors were. For a 48-year-old actress, it was a real revelation to find out that her great-grandfather Martha Cherenett was ... a killer. In the 1840s, in Missouri, she killed her husband's her husband to Nov Kosto, who was distinguished by cruelty and a tough character. Cynthia was heard to tears when the newspaper articles showed to her, in which it was described how her relative was he in prison, was convicted for five years, but then he fell under the amnesty and was reacted ahead of time, spending behind bars less than two years. Cynthiney showed a prison in which Marti's conclusion was serving, and where she was the only woman-concluded among 800 men. Despite the fact that the prison did not imply special cameras for women, the convict was still in a separate room from other prisoners, and part of their term spent at work in the houses of business containing prison. Later, the actress visited the grave of the dead.
"It is terribly thinking about what I had to endure March. It seems to me that it would be better if she had not killed her husband, and he killed her with their children. I can't even imagine how hard it was to fight with circumstances. Of course, later we will surely come up with some joke that there were killers in our family, but we will still tremble from fear of our predecessor, "said Cynthia.
