Richard Glossip: A Conviction Unraveled (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Richard Glossip spent 27 years on Oklahoma’s death row for a murder he has always said he didn’t commit — a case built almost entirely on the shifting testimony of the actual killer, Justin Sneed. After destroyed evidence, withheld documents, political pressure, and nine execution dates, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Glossip’s conviction in 2025, ruling that prosecutors relied on false testimony. In this episode, we break down how a motel murder turned into one of America’s most controversia
Kenneth McDuff: The Killer Who Walked Free (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Kenneth McDuff was supposed to die in prison. Instead, a broken parole system let a convicted triple‑murderer walk free — and he immediately began killing again. This episode follows McDuff’s violent rise in small‑town Texas, the 1966 murders that first put him on death row, and the catastrophic decision that unleashed one of the most dangerous predators in American history. Through the stories of victims like Colleen Reed and Melissa Northrup , we examine how McDuff exploited fear, mobility, an

Scott Dozier: The Death Row Inmate Who Begged the State to Kill Him (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Scott Raymond Dozier was sentenced to death for the murder of Jeremiah Miller, but his story is unlike almost any other death-row case. Dozier didn't spend his final years fighting for his freedom. He repeatedly told the courts that he wanted to die. He waived appeals, pushed Nevada to carry out his execution, and even offered alternatives when the state struggled to find a method it could legally use. But Nevada had a problem. The state's proposed execution drugs sparked legal challenges, pharm
Rodney Reed: 30 Years on Death Row — But Was the Evidence Tested? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 1996, Stacey Stites was murdered in Texas, and Rodney Reed was convicted and sentenced to death for her killing. Reed has maintained his innocence for decades, while his defense has fought for DNA testing of evidence—including the belt prosecutors said was used to strangle Stites. In March 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear Reed’s latest appeal. Three justices dissented, raising serious questions about why the evidence had never been tested. Nearly 30 years later, one question rema
