The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 07/10/25. Hopefully, we all survived the 4th of July with all our fingers and toes and no added DUI arrests on our record. Gus T. is still mighty curious if any C.O.W.S. listeners have been interviewed by AI? This was first mentioned last week and speaks volumes to the monumental changes to the work landscape. It is imperative that non-white parents speak to their children often about the rapidly changing dynamics of getting and maintaining any sort of job. We also discussed a KCRW report where grocery enterprise Trader Joe's is accused of stealing the intellectual property of "ethnic"/non-white chefs. As opposed to partnering with non-white cooks at places like Brooklyn Delhi, Trader Joe's allegedly makes inferior copies of their culinary creations to sell at cheap prices to consumers. KCRW's report made it seem that Trader Joe's targets and ripoffs non-white ("ethnic") chefs specifically. #INVEST in The C.O.W.S. - https://cash.app/$TheCOWS #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

These two intense broadcasts weave together urgent national and local crises. The first transcript exposes ongoing Iranian plots to assassinate Donald Trump, failures within the Secret Service after multiple attacks, and Senate GOP efforts to slash funding for agencies like USAID over alleged bioweapons shipments to China. The second transcript tells the heartbreaking story of 15-year-old Chastity Nelson, killed by a habitual drunk driver whose prior DUIs were mishandled by the courts. Overflowing vigils honored her memory while her devastated community demanded reform. Together, these segments highlight the consequences of institutional negligence and the threats facing American leaders and families alike

The host shares a powerful listener story: a text message thanking them for life-saving advice about pausing before driving through green lights—a habit that prevented a fatal crash. Drawing from personal near-miss experiences and alarming statistics, the host explains why South Carolina's Upstate region has some of the country's highest rates of deadly driving, often due to rampant red-light running and repeat DUI offenders like Kevin Clinton Harrison. The episode also pivots to new revelations in the Epstein case, exposing inconsistencies, lawsuits for hidden evidence, and why many believe we still don't know the full story behind his death.

In this unflinching compilation, the show weaves together urgent warnings and explosive revelations. First, hear how a simple driving habit—pausing at green lights—has saved listeners' lives in South Carolina's Upstate, a region plagued by red-light runners and repeat DUI offenders like Kevin Clinton Harrison, whose reckless actions killed a teenager and injured others. The host exposes how systemic failures let dangerous drivers stay free despite long criminal records. Then, the focus pivots to the national scandal surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death. From missing camera angles to withheld evidence and bipartisan finger-pointing, the segment dissects the tangled web of secrecy that continues to shield powerful figures. Whether on local roads or in federal investigations, these stories show a justice system too often stacked against everyday Americans.

This powerful double-segment dives into two gripping themes: the deadly reality of driving in South Carolina's Upstate—where red-light running, DUIs, and judicial failures cost lives—and new scrutiny surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death. The host shares a listener's story of survival thanks to a simple driving tip and exposes how habitual offender Kevin Clinton Harrison caused a fatal crash yet avoided prison for years. Then, the episode shifts to unravel inconsistencies in the Epstein investigation, raising questions about the FBI, hidden client lists, and suspicious surveillance failures. It's a stark reminder that accountability—whether on our roads or in our justice system—remains elusive.

In this powerful broadcast, the hosts dissect the tragic death of 15-year-old Chastity Wilson, a cheerleader killed by a habitual drunk driver with a decades-long rap sheet of DUIs, grand theft, burglary, and forgery. They expose how South Carolina's judicial system—where legislators appoint judges, many from their own law firms—routinely lets repeat offenders walk free with “time served” sentences and reduced charges. The discussion highlights systemic failures, conflicts of interest, and the profound human cost when a culture of leniency collides with an unaccountable judiciary.

In a wide-ranging broadcast, the host reports that Senate Republicans, led by John Thune, are seeking votes for a symbolic $9 billion funding cut to agencies like PBS, NPR, and USAID—citing recent revelations that USAID allegedly shipped dangerous viruses abroad. The program also discusses mounting threats against former President Trump by Iranian officials and failures within the Secret Service after multiple assassination attempts. The episode closes with an emotional account of 15-year-old Chastity Nelson, killed in South Carolina by a repeat DUI offender whose prior convictions were mishandled. A vigil overflowing two parking lots honored her life, as the community demanded accountability and reform to prevent more tragedies.

Law school spends a lot of time on big constitutional theories and landmark cases, but what about the nuts and bolts, like Rule 16, filing demands for discovery, and wading through endless hours of body cam footage? I'm here to shed light on all of it.Today, we get into the gritty details of what criminal discovery actually looks like in practice. From being buried under mountains of police video, to dealing with last-minute evidence dumps and navigating Brady violations—I share real stories, practical advice, and the kind of candid perspective that comes from decades in the trenches. If you're a future lawyer, a legal enthusiast, or just curious about what really goes on in a trial, this episode is for you. So sit back, relax, and join me at the law school table as we dig into the stuff you won't find in the textbooks.Moments00:00 "Law School Versus Real Practice"05:55 "Time Costs: Law Clerk Solution"08:38 "Case Discussion and Human Bias"12:23 Evidence Overlooked: Raising Concerns15:45 Unprepared for Trial Defense17:43 "Prosecutors as Foxes: Trust Issues"Here are my top three takeaways from the conversation:Practical Discovery Knowledge is Often Missing from Law School: While law school dives deep into constitutional theory, many students aren't exposed to the everyday realities of criminal procedure, like Ohio's Rule 16 and the actual process of filing and responding to discovery demands.Managing Evidence is a Major Challenge: With technology, gathering evidence like body and dash cam footage has become both a blessing and a burden. Reviewing hours of footage from multiple officers can consume entire weeks of attorney time — something clients and new lawyers should understand.Discovery Rules are Not Just Formalities: The rules about timely and complete evidence disclosure are not just procedural checklists. Late or incomplete discovery can fundamentally change trial strategy, require continuances, or in some cases, even lead to a dismissal — and it's up to defense counsel to fight for the fair application of these rules.Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

Let me start by saying I detest drunk driving. That said, the Colorado Department of Transportation sent out a press release saying more than half of all drivers who were contacted for suspected DUI refused to take a toxicology test. There are lawyers on social media who will persuade you to not take the test but is that the best strategy if you are pulled over? In this episode I speak with criminal defense and DUI attorney Kevin Churchill asking what you should do and what your legal rights are when it comes to intoxication.

The Importance of Fair Trials for Everyone: "If anybody deserves a fair trial, it is the most guilty, deplorable person you can possibly imagine. Because if he can get a fair trial, then you, when you're not guilty, you can get a fair trial too..." - Steve PalmerUsing Weinstein's high-profile New York conviction as our guide, I break down why the court's decision to allow testimony from other alleged victims became such a crucial issue on appeal.I walk you through why ensuring a fair trial (yes, even for someone as notorious as Weinstein) is so important for the justice system as a whole. You'll hear my take on what happened inside that contentious jury room, the chaos (and value) of passionate deliberations, and what it really means when jurors can't agree. We'll use classic courtroom wisdom, a nod to the film “12 Angry Men,” and explore what prosecutors can do after a hung jury.If you've ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes after a big trial wraps up, or why appeals matter, this episode is for you. You'll learn what makes the adversarial process tick and why procedural fairness isn't just a technicality. It's the backbone of justice.Here are my key takeaways:Why Procedural Fairness Matters: No matter how “guilty” or reviled someone may be, the system must guarantee a fair trial. Otherwise, the same rules protecting the innocent begin to erode. The denial of a fair trial for anyone jeopardizes the process for everyone.How Juries REALLY Work: The jury deliberations in Weinstein's retrial were reportedly contentious. Yelling, disagreements, and passionate debate. This, I argue, actually shows the adversarial system doing its job as jurors hash out the facts and arrive at the closest thing to the truth.What Happens After a Hung Jury: If a jury can't agree (a “hung jury”), prosecutors aren't required to retry the case, but often will. Especially if victims push for it or to secure a complete legal outcome, even if other convictions already mean substantial prison time.Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

Ocean Eagle: Embracing Our Traumas Through Breathwork | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this riveting episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, Ocean Eagle, a recovery advocate, author, and breathwork facilitator, shares his profound journey from a traumatic childhood to over 25 years of sobriety and spiritual awakening. Born in Palo Alto and raised across California and Texas amidst the chaos of alcoholic parents, Ocean survived a violent upbringing marked by his father's abuse and the loss of his brother to a tragic car accident at 22. After totaling four cars and earning three DUIs by age 25, Ocean hit rock bottom, triggered by a confrontation with his father's disapproval during a quadruple bypass recovery. This pivotal moment led him to Alcoholics Anonymous in Burbank, where a heartfelt embrace from a stranger sparked his commitment to sobriety at 30. Now 56, Ocean has transformed his pain into purpose, having facilitated 16 women's and veterans' retreats, authored seven books, including The Gift of Desperation, and developed a powerful breathwork practice to help others heal trauma. He candidly discusses overcoming three sober divorces, raising four children, and embracing his spiritual calling as “Ocean Eagle,” a name gifted during a transformative retreat. Ocean's message, “Judging mistakes hides life's beauty,” resonates as he guides others to balance masculine and feminine energies and release past wounds.#thehopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover  #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #RecoveryIsPossible #Hope #wedorecover Join our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Follow the Hopeaholics on our Socials:https://www.instagram.com/thehopeaholics https://linktr.ee/thehopeaholicsBuy Merch: https://thehopeaholics.myshopify.comVisit our Treatment Centers: https://www.hopebythesea.comIf you or a loved one needs help, please call or text 949-615-8588.

In this wide-ranging broadcast, the host takes aim at media narratives blaming Trump-era budget cuts for delayed flash flood warnings during Texas' deadly storms. Drawing on official statements from the Department of Homeland Security and the National Weather Service, the show debunks claims of staffing shortages and proves alerts were issued hours in advance—despite media insistence to the contrary. The discussion then pivots to the deeper problem: weather forecasting models that ignore solar activity, fueling dangerous inaccuracies the host argues are driven by climate change politics rather than science. The episode also spotlights South Carolina's shocking DUI culture, recounting a harrowing July 4th boating crash that killed two people on Lake Greenwood and exploring why the state's judicial system repeatedly fails to hold drunk drivers accountable. Finally, the host answers listener questions about weather modification and geoengineering bans while promising a return to the Epstein client list controversy dominating national headlines.

The Reality of Courtroom Standards: "And we don't talk in terms of factual innocence in the courtroom very often. It comes up sometimes on appellate sides of things, but for the most part, it's whether the prosecutor has proved somebody." - Steve PalmerThis is about the notorious case involving Brian Wilson (no, not the Beach Boys icon), who's been charged with the murder of two police officers up in Morrow County (OH).I break down why, even in a situation like this, entering a not guilty plea is not just common—it's actually the right legal move. I'll address some of the biggest misconceptions I hear about pleas, talk through the important difference between factual guilt and what the courtroom actually requires, and explain why due process has to be protected, even for those accused of the worst crimes. With the death penalty potentially on the line, I unpack how that part of the trial works and why our legal standards matter for everyone, not just the presumed innocent.If you've ever wondered how defense attorneys square their work with questions of morality, or why the system handles plea decisions the way it does, this episode is for you. Here are my top takeaways:"Not Guilty" Is a Process, Not a Claim: The initial "not guilty" plea doesn't necessarily mean the accused claims innocence; it's a vital procedural step that sets the wheels of justice in motion and ensures the State provides evidence before conviction.Burden of Proof Matters: The prosecutor must prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, not simply assert it. This protects all of us, not just the accused, and sets a uniform standard that safeguards the innocent.Even in Difficult Cases, Standards Protect Us All: Justice means applying the process equally, even for those accused of terrible crimes. Skipping steps or making exceptions erodes the integrity of the entire system.Got a question you want answered on the podcast? Call 614-859-2119 and leave us a voicemail.

The guys discuss how an amphibian can ruin your cornflakes, when a trip to DUI court ignites a passion for the overpriced wig industry, and why your ability to get a $1.50 hot dog does not entitle you to domestic flights. 

In this replay episode, we revisit a conversation that didn't go as planned. We had scheduled Rep. Nico Rios to appear on Plain Talk to discuss his recent controversies; from bigoted and homophobic remarks during a DUI arrest, to a social media post invoking the CIA and antisemitic language, to a constitutionally questionable resolution declaring Jesus Christ “King over all the world.” We wanted to have a respectful, honest conversation about his words and actions. But just minutes before the interview, Rep. Rios backed out. “Ay dude I'm not going on your boring little show,” he texted. “Got more important things to do than chat Capitol gossip.” Replay or not, this episode is a revealing look at the tone and tension inside North Dakota politics today. If you want to participate in Plain Talk, just give us a call or text at 701-587-3141.

In this episode of the Podcast, Hillary shares her deeply personal story of growing up in a chaotic household and transitioning into a life filled with alcohol and drugs from high school onwards. She details the impact of her heavy drinking, including a DUI at 19 and the evolution of her drinking from a social activity to an isolated one. Her turning point comes after reading a relatable sober story and attending a meeting, though she relapses after four months of initial sobriety. Ultimately, a tough experience in Mexico leads her to recommit to sobriety. Now, with over three years of sobriety, Hillary reflects on the authentic joy and happiness she's found without alcohol, reshaping her identity and recovering out loud.

In this no-holds-barred episode, Shipwreck unpacks the chaos surrounding Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, sharing skepticism over its AI provisions and the endless culture war it fuels. She dives into viral claims that migrants are being dumped into the ocean from cargo planes, a conspiracy she methodically dismantles while pointing out the absurdity of the rumor mill. From the real story behind “Alligator Alcatraz,” Florida's new migrant facility, to Kristi Noem's claim that a deportee started eating himself mid-flight, the episode is equal parts darkly hilarious and unsettling. Shipwreck also tackles the meltdown over Nancy Mace livestreaming in her pajamas, her personal burnout with performative compassion, and why defending bad behavior “on your own side” only feeds the cult mentality. Ranting about DUIs, predators using trans activism as cover, and the collapse of basic decency online, she ends by reflecting on whether humanity is even worth saving. With tangents about Kathy Griffin looking like Pennywise, the sewage pouring across the southern border, and the illusion of positive social media, this is Shipwreck at her raw, unscripted best.

This is more than a DUI story — it's a wake-up call, and a tribute to those who refused to look away. In this episode of Off the Record, we revisit a devastating DUI crash that claimed a mother's life and left her young daughter permanently injured. Several brave community members stepped in to help — and two of them joined us to share what happened that day. As the holiday weekend approaches, let their actions remind us all: It takes a community to make a difference — and one decision to destroy a life. Please, don't drink and drive.Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/W4rlA0vIQAM Like our content?

Happy Hump Day, yo! Looking forward to heading down to Riverside Park later this morning for the start of RiverFest in La Crosse. Not sure what I'll be eating for lunch, but I'm definitely going home to sit in the AC afterwards. We kicked things off this morning with news about a train derailment in Wisconsin, a new budget deal in the state, some of the beaches that are closed for the 4th of July weekend due to high levels of E.coli, an update on the Idaho firefighter shootings, and a wind turbine blade that caused an accident on a highway. In sports, the Brew Crew got rained out yesterday, Damian Lillard's time in Milwaukee is over, SGA got a VERY BIG contract extension, and Malik Beasley is in some BIG trouble. We let you know what's on the boob tube today, and a new movie is in theaters today as well(Jurassic World: Rebirth). Speaking of dinosaur zoos, would you visit a real-life Jurassic Park if it existed? Plus, the Hallmark Channel's "Christmas In July" starts this weekend if you're interested. Since we aren't live on Friday morning, Doc joined us early this week with his Racing Report, thanks to County Materials in Holmen. Elsewhere in sports, the Indiana Fever won the WNBA's in-season tournament without Caitlin Clark on the floor last night, Coco Gauff loses in the first round at Wimbledon, and the University of Pennsylvania violated the rights of female athletes. Lots of 4th of July stuff this morning including some of the suggested movies to watch over the holiday weekend, some "must-haves" for your backyard BBQ, and a list of the more interesting names for fireworks! If you're unhappy with where you live and you're looking to pack up & move somewhere else, check out this list of cities & states that will pay you to move there. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy who got pulled over for DUI with over SEVENTY Bud Light empties in his car, a crazy cat lady who left over 100 cats in a UHaul trailer, a #FloridaWoman who locked her two kids in a shed so she could run some errands, a NYC firefighter who is suspended for giving "hot girls" rides on the firetruck, and a 360 square foot "house" in Seattle for sale for $416,000See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Trump Visits “Alligator Alcatraz” Amid Immigration Firestorm President Trump visits a new detention facility for illegal immigrants deep in Florida's Everglades. Nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” the site was built in secrecy using Biden-era hotel funds, sparking lawsuits from environmentalists and migrant groups. Meanwhile, the Senate fails to pass a Medicaid ban for illegal immigrants, and House Republicans move forward with a bill to deport those arrested for DUIs. LA Sued for Sanctuary Policies, Activists Launch ICE-Tracking App The Trump administration sues Los Angeles for violating the Constitution's Supremacy Clause with its sanctuary city policies. At the same time, a Democrat activist and Antifa supporter launches an app to help migrants avoid ICE agents. Critics warn the app could incite violence against law enforcement, especially as pride in America drops sharply among Democrats, according to new Gallup polling. Hamas Crumbles in Gaza as Netanyahu Eyes Peace Israel's operation in Gaza has killed top Hamas leaders and brought 75% of the territory under Israeli control. Internal resistance to Hamas is growing among Palestinian clans, even as militants continue sporadic attacks. The U.S. now faces a strategic dilemma after depleting 20% of its anti-missile stockpiles during the conflict. Russia's Offensive Stalls, Ukraine Sends Grandfathers to the Front Russia's summer offensive falters due to poor morale, corruption, and untrained soldiers. Ukraine, running low on manpower, is deploying men in their 50s and 60s to the front lines, while corruption plagues the country's funeral industry amid surging war casualties. Mexican Cartels Use AI to Track and Kill FBI Informants A DOJ report reveals that the Sinaloa Cartel used cellphone metadata and Mexico City surveillance to track U.S. officials and murder FBI informants. The breach highlights growing dangers of digital surveillance and "digital exhaust," with Bryan urging listeners to reduce their own digital footprint. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

The Senate took a big step forward in passing Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill.’ An unspeakable tragedy in Idaho as two Coeur d’Alene firefighters are shot and killed. Protesters gathered in Tacoma to demand an end to US involvement in Iran. // Alleged Idaho murder Bryan Kohberger has agreed to plead guilty. Even CNN is admitting that Trump is on a roll. // Jason thinks it’s too hot outside. Former Seahawk Richard Sherman plead guilty to a DUI.

Legal Nuance in Vehicular Homicide Cases: "So the jury said, look, we think the prosecutor has proved all the elements of drunk driving, meaning operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or operating the motor vehicle with a prohibited blood alcohol content. But we don't think that the prosecutor proved the actual homicide or the murder or the death component of it." - Steve PalmerThe Karen Reed case. It's a story that's captured national attention and is even featured in a new Netflix series. I'll break down the legal details behind the jury's decision: why Karen Reed was acquitted of manslaughter but still found guilty of DUI. Drawing on my own experience as a defense attorney, I explain how “lesser included offenses” played a role and why this outcome is such a big win for the defense. Whether you're a legal enthusiast or just trying to get a handle on what actually happened, I walk you through the key elements of this fascinating, headline-making case.My Key Takeaways:Lesser Included Offense Explained: The jury found Karen Reed guilty of drunk driving but not guilty of manslaughter. This distinction arose because, although the prosecution proved she was driving under the influence, they didn't prove she caused the death—a classic application of the “lesser included offense” principle.Impact on Sentencing: Being acquitted of the more serious charge meant avoiding felony prison time, leaving only the DUI conviction, something far less severe from a sentencing standpoint.Jury Decision Dynamics: The outcome emphasizes how disputed evidence (such as whether the accused caused harm) and the prosecution's burden of proof can result in nuanced verdicts that significantly change a client's future.Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

Online Privacy and Law Enforcement Access: "We're arguing that we have a reasonable expectation of privacy when we use these platforms. If we wanted our identity out there, we wouldn't conceal it with a pen name or a handle or whatever you use, a username. And by creating these alternative names, we are telling the world we don't want everybody to have access to my true identity." - Steve PalmerWe're living in a world where so much of our personal information is online, from Snapchat and Instagram to emails and cell phone records. I break down exactly what law enforcement has to do to get their hands on your private data. Do they require a search warrant, or is a simple subpoena sufficient? I explain how the Fourth Amendment applies and discuss your rights regarding privacy on these digital platforms.I share some real examples from my own legal practice and explore what the federal Stored Communications Act says about these issues. We'll also take a look at some key Supreme Court cases that shape how this all plays out. And if you think this isn't relevant to you just because you're a law-abiding citizen, I'll tell you why privacy protections should matter to everyone.Here are my 3 key takeaways for you:The Stored Communications Act & SubpoenasLaw enforcement can sometimes gain access to account information (like your identity on Snapchat) with just a subpoena, not a full search warrant. This distinction is important because a subpoena is much easier to obtain than a search warrant.The Fourth Amendment Still MattersThe Fourth Amendment protects us from unreasonable searches, and the expectation of privacy extends to our digital lives. In many cases, courts are leaning toward requiring a search warrant (with probable cause) for authorities to access sensitive information, especially after landmark cases like Carpenter v. United States.Your Digital Identity Deserves ProtectionThere's an ongoing legal debate: Should police need a higher standard (a search warrant) to access your hidden or pseudonymous social media identities? My answer: Yes. Protecting personal privacy—even for law-abiding citizens—is foundational, no matter how convenient the shortcut for investigators.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

In filings ahead of the August 11 trial, prosecutors and defense attorneys disclosed two surprise Pennsylvania-based witnesses: William Searfoss, a correctional officer at the Monroe County Correctional Facility who oversaw Kohberger during his short stay following the December 2022 arrest, and Anthony Somma, a former classmate from a youth law enforcement program that Kohberger attended and was later removed from amid complaints from female peers.  Their exact roles—whether they will bolster the prosecution's case or support Kohberger's defense—remain unclear, with both flagged for a June 30 pre‑trial hearing to determine if they will be required to testify .In addition to these two, a third potential witness emerged via resurfaced bodycam footage featuring a woman identified only as “M.M.” and described as a DoorDash driver who delivered food to victim Xana Kernodle's residence just minutes before the killings. She claims to have parked beside Kohberger that morning and later told officers, “I saw Bryan … I'm the DoorDash driver."  Investigators are evaluating whether her testimony can be brought forward, though her credibility may be questioned due to her involvement in an unrelated DUI incident.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Mystery as two surprise witnesses in Bryan Kohberger murder case are revealed with weeks to go before long-awaited trial | The US Sun

As 128 House democrats break ranks with their party and vote against a measure to again impeach president Trump, all 206 democrats vote AGAINST a bill condemning the LA riots and making DUI a deportable offense.

Trump warns all those pardoned or granted clemency by auto signature that their reprieves from public scrutiny are not set in stone.

Chris is a Christian therapist in San Diego who brings surfer Jesus to his clients.

Listener, today's story is a study in consequences—the kind that sneak up on you in the silence after a mistake. We begin with a personal tale: a moment of breaking, a walk into the night, and the cold realization of what it costs to leave something behind. But it's in the second half where things truly darken. In Vancouver, Washington, CDL driver Mark Fogel crashes his vehicle after drinking and spirals into a mental and emotional freefall that ends in bloodshed. A simple DUI becomes a fatal standoff, and a man already undone by guilt crosses a line that can't be uncrossed.Listener, not every tragic end comes with intent—but some do. And this one… it's hard to forget.To hear more stories like this—ad-free, early access, and exclusives—join us on Patreon or Apple Podcasts Premium.Explore everything Obscura at: https://www.blacklabelpodcasting.com/show/obscura/Our Sponsors:* Check out Chime: https://chime.com/OBSCURA* Check out Mood and use my code OBSCURA for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code OBSCURA for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/obscura-a-true-crime-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
