    Death on the Tracks Episode One: A Mother Knows - FITSFiles

    With the crackle of the police scanner, Lesia’s heart broke in an instant. She didn’t need the details or the long-awaited knock on the door to tell her that her son was gone. Somehow she just knew. DJ Smith was found on the railroad tracks in Dorchester County on August 11, 2018. How he got there and who was responsible was unknown - a puzzle with many missing pieces. Before this, Lesia had always been content to leave the investigative work to her husband, Eric, who worked for the solicitor’s office. Now, she would find herself in a new role - investigating the suspicious death of her only son.  FITSFiles is a true crime and corruption podcast hosted and produced by fitsnews.com.
