Snapped: Behind Bars’: Crystal Mangum Insists She Didn’t Kill Her Boyfriend [Exclusive Clip]
Crystal Mangum is currently behind bars after being convicted of murdering her then-boyfriend, Reginald Daye. But she says she’s being punished for a crime she didn’t commit. In this exclusive clip from the Sept. 8 episode of Oxygen’s true crime series Snapped: Behind Bars, Mangum shares her side of the story.
Mangum, a former exotic dancer, is currently behind bars at the North Carolina Correctional Institution for Women. She’s serving a minimum of 14 years after being convicted in 2013 of killing Daye, her live-in boyfriend, in 2011. But in a December 2023 jailhouse interview, Mangum insisted she was innocent.
“I decided to do this interview because I want people to know the truth about Reginald Daye’s death,” Mangum says in the clip from Snapped: Behind Bars, a new series that revisits crimes featured on Oxygen’s long-running series Snapped.
Mangum might insist that the crime of which she was found guilty didn’t happen, but police and prosecutors say otherwise.
In April 2011, Daye, a 46-year-old tradesman from Durham, North Carolina, showed up at his neighbor and nephew’s home with a deep stab wound to his chest. Daye was taken to the hospital, and doctors initially expected him to survive. But 10 days later he died. However, before his death, he said Mangum was the person who stabbed him.
