Somebody
When Shapearl Wells's son Courtney is found outside a Chicago police station with a fatal bullet wound, Shapearl immediately distrusts the official narrative. So she launches her own investigation into her son’s murder and teams up with journalists from the Invisible Institute to confront the cops and find the truth about Courtney's death. Somebody explores the racial disparities and turbulent relationship between law enforcement and citizens in one of America’s largest cities. A co-production of Topic Studios, The Intercept, the Invisible Institute, and iHeartRadio, in association with Tenderfoot TV.

Beautiful tribute by a loving mother.

Honestly I didn’t know how I was going to react to this story initially. I find that the level of racism and intolerance by police is overwhelming for me, I can’t imagine how the people of this community face it daily, but I am so glad I listened to this podcast. It is genuine, thoughtful and necessary. At its core, it is heart breaking, but we can not attain change without feeling all of this and learning from the failures of the past.
Heartbreaking

This was the most compelling and gut wrenching podcast I’ve ever listened to. Hearing Shapearl’s pain during parts of this series is almost unbearable. RIP Courtney, you deserved so much more than the dumpster fire that is Chicago PD provided, both in life saving help and bringing your murderers to justice.
Thank you
