Description

Vigilante is an investigative podcast about people who take justice into their own hands- for better or for worse. In both multi-part seasons and standalone episodes, the show spotlights everyday people driven to drastic measures. What motivates a vigilante? What are the structural forces that make them feel it's necessary to operate outside of the law? And what are the human consequences of those actions? Vigilante is hosted by Allie Conti.

Two years ago, Kyle MacLachlan, the star of Twin Peaks, called investigative journalist Joshua Davis with a strange story. Kyle had heard a rumor that Pablo Escobar did a deal in the early 1980s with a remote, coastal Southern town of 300 people. In exchange for vast wealth and limitless cocaine, Escobar would be allowed to land planes and ships in the area. Over the last 24 months, Josh and Kyle investigated the rumor, journeying to Varnamtown to knock on doors and find out what really happens when a firehose of money and cocaine is turned on a small, tight knit community.

Tim Miller is the epitome of narcissistic, vigilante, white trash. He uses everyone in his path solely for his own gain with no regard to anyone else. Yes, families have benefited from search efforts he coordinated. But hero, he is NOT! Stop glorifying this ass hat!

It had a lot of potential, and started out pretty interesting, but the bottom really fell out before the end. I kept being frustrated at the level of investigative journalism she DIDN'T do: calls she didn't make, stories she never checked around to verify or discount, details from the evidence she supposedly sorted through, etc. She teased a lot of details and twists that just kind of fizzled out, and left the story with an abrupt, incomplete, anticlimactic conclusion. I found myself getting more and more annoyed with the repetitive speculation in place of real thorough investigation. I just ended the podcast feeling like it was a big waste of time. I liked her voice, and the premise was interesting. I just think there are many other journalists doing this job so much more thoroughly, she could use some practice or mentoring or something before her next season. I also found it odd when she'd play a barely intelligible sound clip from an interview, acknowledge that it was almost impossi

Hmm not sure but as an investigative reporter you seem hesitant to test the veracity of the proposed evidence of guilt. You brushed clean the terrible and tragic circumstances of the man that Tim destroyed to his ultimate death. He said sorry and they shed tears together and then he top himself, oh well collateral damage we move on. Oh gee how remarkable a late witness arrives who only knew evidence that Tim also knew but no name and at some point we may have a press conference. I hope it's true but you must have some doubts that Tim is using your platform to further his own beliefs and it gave an end to a non investigative podcast.

Pleasantly surprised this wasn’t hating on Tim Miller. The trailers kinda hinted at that. Very good podcast. He’s so interesting.

seems to me that even though Tim has helped many families get the answers they needed, he is way to personally, and emotionally, invested to be able to be impartial enough to be providing any contributions to the killing fieilds cases. how does anyone know that this isnt another of tims crazy schemes to destroy the man he has decided is responsible. the man with the confession being given immunity is just way to convenient. Tim could believe so deeply that Clyde is responsible, that he found someone willing to say what Tim needed him to say to get clyde put away. immunity basically gives someone free rein to say whatever they want, true or not. I dont buy it at all. Tim has already destroyed one mans life, and he for all intents and purposes made him kill himself. and Tim was dead wrong. this is exactly why police dont allow families to activly help in an investigation and they practice degrees of removal when someone may be tied personally to a case. nevertheless I was born in

What a waste of time podcast with pointless meandering from your stereotypical millennial being dramatic and not reading the room. Tim Miller has done more in a day than this host has done in her whole entitled life. Dont quit your day job lady

Dismayed that Ms. Conti is expressing more concern about herself for no apparent reason than the victims who were murdered or the viciousness of the suspect's acts toward his daughter.
