About this listen
There’s the version of a case you see… and then there’s what’s actually happening while it’s unfolding.
In this episode, I’m joined by Allison Weiner, an investigative journalist who’s spent years covering high-profile cases in real time, not after the fact, not cleaned up for a documentary, but as they’re happening.
We get into cases like Holly Bobo case and Amy Harwick case, but this isn’t about retelling what happened. It’s about everything that happens around it.
How quickly narratives form.
How pressure, whether it’s media, law enforcement, or public opinion, can shape the direction of a case.
And how hard it is to undo that once it starts.
We also talk about the impact on victims’ families, what people misunderstand about investigative reporting, and where the line is in true crime, and what happens when it gets crossed.
This is one of those conversations that makes you step back and question how these stories are told… and what you think you know.
