Even the dog, Breezy. Yep.  Authorities said he confessed while under suicide watch at a hospital, but Tony is now adamantly denying it and placing all of the blame on his deceased wife. There's a lot more to this story and we hope you'll listen. By a lot more we mean, Medicare fraud, a 27-page handwritten letter from Tony to his father, oh...and the fact that his father was convicted of a murder-for-hire plot against his own wife, Tony's mom, Loretta.  As always, this episode has been recorded with the intention to shed light on a horrible event. We want to make sure that our listeners know that everything we say is meant with complete respect to those who had their lives taken and those who loved them. To the family of Megan, Alec, Tyler, & Zoe...our hearts go out to you. You have suffered an unthinkable tragedy.

    Episode 56: The Wrongful Conviction of Timothy Brian Cole Hey Cruel Coven! Today Tori is sharing the story of Timothy Brian Cole, a man who was wrongfully convicted of raping Michele Mallin in March of 1985. He was labeled as the "Texas Tech Rapist" and many, even some of his own family members, believed he committed the crime. His closest family members, including his mother, Ruby, knew that Tim would have never done such a disgusting, vile act, and stood by him. It wasn't until Timothy had died of an asthma attack while incarcerated, serving a sentence of 25 years, at the age of only 39, that the real rapist came forward. Tim's mom, Ruby, said she wished for only one thing...that people would never forget what happened to her son. I felt it vital, after hearing this, to share his story as told by his brother in the documentary, The Long Road to Justice: The Tim Cole Story. K. Love YOU. Bye!
