In season two, we bring you coverage from the State of Georgia v. Marcus Lillard trial. He is charged with felony murder, aggravated assault, involuntary manslaughter, and reckless conduct.
From opening arguments to closing statements, the State contends that Marcus Lillard had a history of strangling women during sex and did strangle his girlfriend Marianne Shockley on Mother’s Day 2019, causing her death. They further argue that his conduct was reckless by not calling 911 for nearly two hours.
The defense purports that there is no evidence that sex took place that night, and if it did, there is no evidence that it was caused by Marcus Lillard. Hear all of the evidence and testimony from the trial and decide for yourself if Marcus Lillard is guilty or not guilty.

Nowhere to be Seen
Crime scene photos and evidence show disarray with a broken bracelet, glasses, and unknown drinks around the pool deck. The GBI searched the woods but did not find any evidence of tools that could have been used to conceal Marianne’s death. Two respiratory therapists and an EMT testify about calls, messages, and texts received from Marcus Lillard into the early morning hours of Mother’s Day.

Customer Reviews
Great story
If someone else was speaking I would have enjoyed it so much more. The host voice drives me crazy, there is one tone and it’s like she is just reading line by line not telling a story
Can someone else read the script, PLEASE!!
I want to get into this story, but my ears are bleeding. It’s like a 6 y.o. is reading a homework assignment!!
Season 1 Episode 5 is missing
Just started this great podcast but as I’m listening through, I realized that episode 5 is missing :(
