From the Accused podcast team, Aftermath is an episodic look at survivors of gun violence. Two crime reporters travel the country talking to people whose lives changed in the blink of an eye.

Really beautifully done! It never spends so much time on the detail details of the crime for shock value, but it gives a voice to all the people whose lives were changed. So many of these kinds of stories talk about who was killed why the person did it what they were sentenced, and it just uses the wounded as an afterthought.. But here we get to spend significant time with the wounded and just see what it’s like to be a victim of this type of crime. And it was also funny the way they hijacked any and circumvented any possible stupid criticism from dumb conservatives by making it clear that most of the victims have gun violence don’t even hate guns and they’re not even against the second amendment.
This is important

Thank you for telling the part of the story that no one ever tells. In order to solve, or lessen gun violence we need to examine all aspects. This is the #1 biggest reason we need better gun control. These devastating, life altering stories should pull on the heartstrings. I have always been an advocate for better gun laws but the moment that really got me was Sandy Hook. After that happened and absolutely nothing was done about gun control, Americans decided it was ok that these children were shot up in an elementary school. We will just pray for the families and blame mental illness and spread conspiracy theories and do nothing. So those are my thoughts. Thank you again for doing this, it is very important.
Fantastic
