Well, we finally did it. We're talking about the heart-wrenching tale of "Dear Zachary," a documentary that transcends the boundaries of storytelling to capture the raw emotions of love, loss, and justice. In this episode, we explore the captivating narrative of filmmaker Kurt Kuenne, who embarked on a deeply personal journey to memorialize his friend, Dr. Andrew Bagby, tragically murdered by his ex-girlfriend, Shirley Turner. Through intimate interviews, archival footage, and Kuenne's heartfelt narration, "Dear Zachary" unfolds as a poignant letter to Andrew's young son, Zachary. As the documentary unravels, viewers are taken on an emotional rollercoaster, grappling with the complexities of grief, resilience, and the quest for justice.

339 - The Murder of Anne Marie Fahey
Anne Marie “Annie” Fahey wanted to date someone her own age who didn’t have a family, who wasn’t controlling and obsessive, and who didn’t insist they keep their relationship a secret from pretty much everyone in her life. But when she finally summoned the courage to break off her two-year relationship, she disappeared months later. What followed in the search for Annie—and, ultimately, justice— was a whirlwind trial that unequivocally proved no one, regardless of their popularity, connections, or wealth, is above the law. On this week’s episode, we dive into a case so chaotic that it might even rival the “Staircase Murder” in its twists and turns: The murder of Anne Marie Fahey at the hands of one of Delaware’s most prominent and influential prosecuting attorneys, Tom Capano.

Stop Interrupting, Kaitlin!!!!!
These podcasts are great and highly interesting but dear God, the woman with the awful voice, Kaitlin, keeps interrupting Hayley.
It’s incredibly annoying and irritating which spoils the listening experience.
Kaitlin, please shut up! Let Hayley speak and finish what she’s saying. No one wants to hear your constant foghorn interjections! 🤐
Brilliant podcast
