Joining us is a very special guest, Eric Carter-Landin, whose life was forever changed in 1987 when tragedy struck his family in the small town of Socorro, New Mexico.

Eric, Jacob's older brother, has since dedicated his life to seeking justice for Jacob, tirelessly working to uncover the truth behind the shadows of negligence and systemic failures that have kept this case unsolved.

    In our conversation with Eric, we explore the events leading up to Jacob's death, the initial investigation's shortcomings, and the profound impact this tragedy has had on his family. Eric shares his journey of transforming personal grief into a force for change, including his efforts to bring attention to Jacob's case and the broader issues of child abuse and the failures of the criminal justice system to adequately address such cases.

    This episode is not just a story about a family's quest for answers; it's a call to action—a reminder of the countless unsolved cases that deserve justice and the systemic changes needed to prevent future tragedies. Join us as we give a voice to Jacob's story and explore the possibilities of healing and hope in the face of a broken system.
