True but Complicated: Recent Episodes
Complicated Productions
True crime is started as my ‘guilty pleasure’ but the more I dug in, the more I realized that there are gaps, gaping holes, injustices and grey areas that need our attention and not just to entertain us. It is calling for our action. In this pod, you will get true crime stories you are used to mixed in with facts, explorations into our justice system and quite honestly, my opinion.Season 1 is "A tale of Twos" where you will hear 2 episodes that are alike but very different and where you will find one size does not fit all.
Welcome to episode one
I could never fully retell the murder of Hae Min Lee and that is not what this is. I want to focus on the appeals process.
A special thank you to Rabia Chaudry and many works.
