Life for all five.
So another animal may be loosed.
20 years should have been life in prison, or a death sentence. 20 years lessens the value of the dead.
Great podcast, but Emily please stop saying 'To your point.' After 6 times In a podcast or Fox show, it gets annoying.
There should be a million ♥️on this one.
Breaks one's heart . . .
1:40 … "Nothing like this ever happens in the state of Arkansas" ? How short was your stay in the state of Arkansas ?
This podcast is going downhill as Emily is phased out . . .
Why so much effort in making excuses for the prosecution & lying on professional witness resumes ?
Hope the one sidedness of these podcasts concerning this topic doesn't damage Emily's reputation in the long run . . .
Love your podcast but if you were to take a closer look I think you'll see your guest doesn't know what he's talking about.
Odd how this guy labels every "Special Agent" in this story as something like "outstanding", etc . . .
Glad you've looked into this case a little more.
Disappointed much of the facts of this case have been ignored in this podcast. Much more could have been covered in the time it was allotted.
Is Emily out ?
Will the lowering the average IQ cause more and more hung juries in the future?
Great episode. The good FBI that the FBI leadership often stains. The field personnel are to be respected. The top, lately, not so much.
One of the best episodes in so many ways. From appreciating what first responders go through to what those close to them feel and experience to what is sometimes needed for one reason or another what we can do to help others and how we can respond when we need help. This episode has so many facets that connect all through one person's experience that shows how we may all touch others if we just are open to the needs of others.
How many child border crossers end up like the victims of this episode. And what is Biden's cut in opening and keeping open the border.
Why John keeps chumming for distractions when he very well knows who killed his daughter is un-understandable. He could just as well let it settle and be forgotten.
