Description

Three women say they were abused by the same Arizona police officer over nearly a decade. When they seek justice, all of them are kept in the dark about his record of lying and illegal conduct – one goes to prison based entirely on his false testimony. We give police officers incredible power and authority but how can citizens trust law enforcement without transparency and accountability? This season on Verified: Full Disclosure, the story of what happens in one state when law enforcement officials routinely fail to track dishonest and disreputable police officers, and how one tenacious reporter uncovers it all.

Verified: The Next Threat takes the listener on a journey from Russia, to Europe to the United States - to reveal how extremists are learning from each other and recruiting every day for their global fight for white power. We speak to the people at the center of this story - the global extremists, their collaborators in the United States, the government officials trying to counter these movements and people who have decided not to wait for officials to fight back. Built on exclusive reporting and interviews, this immersive, deeply-reported six episode podcast series unpacks this growing global network of groups and individuals who are recruiting and promoting a new transnational crusade for white power. Unlike terrorists and white supremacists of the past, this global movement and its followers are continually shifting, lack formal structure and rationalize collaborations with other enemies of the U.S. So where is all this hate coming from? Why is it bubbling up now and what does it mean? These are the questions we set out to answer in Verified: The Next Threat. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The thought that this woman is going to have consensual sexual intercourse and just leave the tampon in is simply preposterous at least to me. You really don't need to be a seasoned detective to figure this out. This woman needs to be shown a little compassion.

This podcast is so good. The first season just blew me away. The work the women did, the journalists did, the podcast hosts did. It's all truly amazing. Second season hits just as good. Can't wait to see where it goes next

I felt like this was the classic sexual predator story. no matter how many I hear , I can't get enough. the way the impact on victims was portrayed it sounded clear and precise. Only this wasn't a single episode, it.was over 10. My life can hold onto a. sense of safety or peace when I connect to a piece like this .

It's heartbreaking to hear the pain in Crystal's voice, it's so awful that rapists rarely get punished for their horrendous crimes. To be in that pain is one of the worst possible. There are few experiences worse than sexual assault and rape.

Every new episode of Verified confuses and infuriates me. The guy was convicted of raping a minor while he was under house arrest and then he's let out early? what the everliving hell is going on with this story?

Beginning sounds like fun but as time progresses it all seems to turn badly veryquickly! Has changed my mind about couch-surfing. I hardly believe it all turned so bad. Makes me want to cry. WTF is wrong with Leonardo?!!?!!? Maria was struggling to maintain connected with reality. Something bad was going on. What the hell was in that wine? This is NOT what happens with when you drink wine. Sounds like hallucinogenics are added to that wine. No-one has the right to do this to anyone but themselves.

It's frustrating to hear how Couchsurfing enabled a predator. That's the worst way to verify anything I've ever heard of.
