Part 2 of 2. Anomalous Health Incidents. AHI’s. That is what the intelligence community refers to it as, but you likely know it as “The Havana Syndrome.” People reported feeling sick, dizzy, or even worse after experiencing a loud sonic-like wave in and around the U.S. Embassy in Cuba. The U.S. Intelligence Community says there is no evidence of any deliberate actions by a foreign actor. Is there more to the story?

Frances McDormand!! Come on dude, she won an Academy Award for that role, get her name right 😳
I can’t hear a word the guy on the phone is saying. Waste of time.

Love your podcast! I was just wondering if cases are gonna be more than one episode if you could put part 1 in the title?
Yes.Zack did kill his brother.No.Its not wrong to give a life sentence to a 15 yr. old. They fully understand what can kill another person. Thats why they pick weapons to inflict pain.All humans know it is wrong and it is final when you kill another, otherwise they would not try and hide the fact. If Zack was my son and I know he did this, he would not be living with me.Not that I dont love him, I just couldnt trust him. Yes. He would be put somewhere for help. Just not with me.
You are doing your listeners a great disservice by recommending the book Helter Skelter at the end of the Drew Peterson episode. Helter Skelter has been shone to be a wildly inaccurate portrayal of what really happened in the Tate - Labianca murders involving Charles Manson and his followers. Vincent Bugliosi, the author, missrepresented, made up and outright lied in the book and in the trial to make himself look good, brilliant and to sell books to make money. The far more accurate and interesting book on the subject is Tom O'neill's book, Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA & the secret history of the 60's. This book was over 20 years in research and interveiws in the making. It's a great enthralling read.
Scott called Diane Sawyer’s producer after the interview to let them know that he answered that question wrong (about telling the police about Amber). Diane told the viewers this and it’s in the original show (in the clip you played it was edited out). So he owned that one.
this case was disturbing and sickening all at once. god help the next rider in this little cowards car. rip
personally not a huge fan of episodes that are recordings of phone interviews, I struggle to understand them and the audio can be pitchy. just a personal preference.
Good grief ... I couldn't listen to more than several minutes of this podcast. The ridiculous and wildly uneducated "analysis" of the 911 call was absolutely embarrassing. The call was obviously sketchy because he said "hey" and "please?" And because he asked 911 to send "someone" instead of a specific agency? And because -- when seeking help for his girlfriend -- he referred to her as his girlfriend, instead of using her proper name? Jeebus Cripes ... please take a high-school class in psychology before performing any future "analysis" of 911 calls. A cringe-worthy example of an amateur podcaster who is jaw-droppingly ignorant when it comes to psychology and human behavior.
Episode 22: I don't know what the law was at the time this happened, but in the state of Georgia - it doesn't matter who fires the *kill shot* when there is a murder. All parties to the crime are equally culpable to that crime. Because the man has admitted that he was, in fact, involved in the shootout - he has admitted guilt and is considered to be guilty of the murder of the men who died. Something most people do not know is that in the investigation stage, police are allowed to lie to you about anything. This is why the federal prosecutor has the attitude that he has. His job was to get the defendant back to the States and then prosecute the case. As long as he did not lie during the trial, he was well within the parameters of his job to not use the witness as long as the defense team had all the information that the prosecutor had. (The judge making the decision he made to refuse allowing that witness to testify - I would need far more information regarding the witness and the reas
