Following on from the show, documentary Dirty John, The Dirty Truth features interviews with the women that Meehan abused.
The filmmakers also interview Meehan’s two daughters and disclose some information about his private life, including the fact that he used to send drugs to his brother and that there are potentially many more unidentified victims of Meehan’s out there.
