Update: 2022-01-19
Description
In this harrowing one-off episode we delve into the dark and tragic tale of David Early, a man whose life story is a stark reminder of the complexities of criminal rehabilitation and the catastrophic consequences when it fails.
David Early's life was a revolving door of incarceration and fleeting freedom, marked by a string of crimes and multiple stints behind bars. This episode takes a deep dive into Early's troubled journey, exploring the intricacies of a life predominantly spent in the criminal justice system. We investigate the decisions of parole boards that repeatedly granted him second chances, hoping to witness the transformative power of rehabilitation.
However, their faith in Early's potential for reform would prove devastatingly misplaced. After decades spent in and out of prison, Early committed an unthinkable act - the brutal slaughter of the Knight family. We examine the lead-up to this heinous crime, piecing together the events and mindset that propelled Early to such a violent end.
Join us as we explore the broader implications of this case on the criminal justice system and the concept of rehabilitation. Through interviews with experts, insights from those who knew Early, and an in-depth analysis of his criminal history, we offer a comprehensive look at a system fraught with challenges and the human cost of its shortcomings.
