Description

How does a man survive 80 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit? What's the true story about Hurricane Katrina? Why did 9-year-old Asha Degree pack a bag in the middle of a stormy night and disappear? And how did serial killer Samuel Little kill 80 people without the police finding out?

These are the stories you won't find on other podcasts. The stories that often go unnoticed. The victims that are lost to time.

Producer and Writer James Hayes, Sound Engineer and Co-Producer Liam O'Brien, Sound Engineer and Producer Carl Kevin Robinson Jr, and Host Carl Ellis Grant will answer these questions in Another Shade of Crime. A monthly true-crime podcast about crimes committed to and by people of color.

Because crime does not discriminate.
