    EP 26 | DEBRIEF: Marilyn Mulero Takes The Fall

    When the prison gates finally swing open after 27 years, the headline reads "Justice." But what happens when the cameras turn off, the legal teams pack up, and you’re left sitting with the wreckage of nearly three stolen decades? This week on an incredibly special debrief episode of Slippery, we aren’t just talking about the case—we are talking to the woman who lived it. Marilyn Mulero joins us to pull back the curtain on the profound, lingering trauma of being framed by Detective Reynaldo Guevara. Marilyn walks us through the raw psychological horror of that 1992 interrogation room, the devastating moment she realized she was being sent to death row for a crime she didn't commit, and what it does to a person's mind to wait for an execution that should never have been on the table. But the nightmare didn't end when her conviction was vacated. Marilyn opens up about the invisible scars of wrongful conviction—the deep, multi-generational trauma inflicted on her children and her family, the years of missed milestones that can never be replaced, and the exhausting, daily work of trying to repair those fractured bonds. It is an unforgettable, intimate conversation about survival, systemic cruelty, and her fierce new mission to help other incarcerated women pick up the pieces. This isn't just a legal breakdown. This is a story about what it takes to rebuild a life from scratch. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    EP 25 | Marilyn Mulero Takes The Fall

    Imagine sitting in an interrogation room, terrified, exhausted, and completely isolated. Under intense pressure from a notoriously aggressive detective, you sign a piece of paper just to make the nightmare stop—not realizing you’ve just signed your own death warrant. This week on Slippery, we break down the harrowing case of Marilyn Mulero. In 1992, a horrific gang-related double murder in Chicago's Humboldt Park set off a rush for justice. Enter Detective Reynaldo Guevara, a cop whose track record for "solving" cases has since come under devastating scrutiny. Marilyn was sent straight to death row based almost entirely on a coerced confession for a crime she didn't commit. How does a system designed to protect the innocent end up stealing nearly three decades of a woman’s life? We track Marilyn’s grueling, 27-year fight for survival from inside a maximum-security cell, the stunning legal breakthrough that finally changed everything, and her new chapter on the outside. Plus, learn the shocking truth about what happened to the man with a badge who stole her freedom? Grab your headphones. This one will make your blood boil. Learn more about your ad choices.

    She’s back—and she’s rewriting history. In this edition of The Slippery, Nancy breaks down the latest twist in one of the most infamous true crime hoaxes of the decade. Sherri Papini has released a new book and is hitting the podcast circuit with a shocking new narrative. Despite pleading guilty in federal court to lying to police and serving time in prison, Sherri now claims she really was kidnapped all along. Her defense? She was merely trying to "breadcrumb" the real details of her abduction to authorities who just didn't get it. But Nancy isn’t buying the fiction. Armed with the original receipts, court facts, and investigative timelines, Nancy dismantles Papini's latest media tour. Plus, Nancy issues a direct challenge: there is one specific person who can clear everything up once and for all—and it’s time for them to step forward. Learn more about your ad choices.

    EP 22 | DEBRIEF: The Teenage Spy & His Crude Deception

    The cover story was massive: recruited by the CIA at 16, running international security in his 20s, and wielding enough shadow-government influence to commandeer half of a Dutch oil empire. Gaurav Srivastava played the part of a phantom operative perfectly—but how does his story hold up under actual intelligence scrutiny? In this DEBRIEF, Nancy and Scott are talking to former real-life CIA officer Lindsay Moran to separate spy fiction from cold reality. What does it actually look like to be recruited by the Agency? How do real operatives handle their business? And where exactly does Srivastava’s multi-million-dollar bluff begin to crack? Lindsay breaks down the tradecraft and dissects the psychological profile of a high-level fabricator. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    When furniture tycoon Jose Lantigua allegedly died of "Mad Cow Disease" in Venezuela, he left behind a grieving family, a shadowy CIA past, and a massive $8 million paper trail.
