Beyond All Repair
Imagine you're accused of something horrific. You swear you didn't do it, but someone says they witnessed it: your own brother. Sophia Johnson was newly married with a baby on the way when she became the prime suspect in her mother-in-law's brutal murder. WBUR's Amory Sivertson reexamines a case unsolved, a family torn apart, and the woman who wasn't believed.

Very well structured story

I really enjoyed “Beyond All Repair.” I was a bit frustrated in the beginning because I could feel details were missing, but I stayed for the ride and let the truth that I suspected all along reveal itself in the end. It’s just a shame that this woman lost her life. But I appreciated the reporters journey and the brothers journey. It took a lot of twists and turns. Life is complicated and this definitely was an example of that.
Not objective.

I love stories where the bad guy somehow becomes the victim of the system. Give me a break.
Ughhh

This was so interesting in the beginning but by the end just reeked of confirmation bias. The host and the brother both drove me insaneeee
Enjoyed this!

Great journalism and reporting on a difficult case. I arrived at the same conclusion.. Sophia is not trustworthy.. then or now. I believe she is manipulative and self serving. The Justice system served its purpose. People have to live with their choices. Thanks for the great listen!
