It takes a lot to shock investigators, but a murder committed in the exact ten minutes it took for a maid to step out for a newspaper is what did it in this case. No break-in. No clear murder weapon. And an elderly woman beaten with a level of violence that made absolutely no sense for a simple robbery. This is the case of Marion Gilchrist — a brutal crime, a botched investigation, and one of the most shocking wrongful convictions in Scottish history.

In this episode, we delve into the chilling murder of Marion Gilchrist and the subsequent wrongful conviction of Oscar Slater. We explore the flawed investigation, the flimsy evidence, and the public outcry that eventually led to Slater's exoneration after nearly two decades in prison. We also discuss the role of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, in the fight for justice.

Join us as we unravel a story of injustice, perseverance, and a murder that remains unsolved to this day.

Back in 1996, the community of Idaho Falls was shaken by the brutal murder of 18-year-old Angie Dodge. Under immense pressure to solve the case, police focused on 20-year-old Chris Tapp. After more than 30 hours of intense interrogation, Chris was coerced into giving a false confession, despite his DNA not matching the evidence found at the crime scene. His alibi, confirmed by multiple witnesses, was ignored, and he was ultimately convicted of first-degree murder, rape, and use of a deadly weapon. Chris spent the next 20 years in prison fighting for his innocence.

In 1987, Michelle Schofield was murdered in Lakeland, Florida. Her husband Leo was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. But Leo has always maintained his innocence. The Bone Valley podcast, created by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Gilbert King, uncovered shocking evidence never presented at trial: DNA pointing to another suspect, ignored witness testimony, and a serial killer's confession. Despite this new evidence, Leo remains in prison. This episode features an interview with Gilbert King about his investigation and Leo's ongoing fight for freedom.
