In this bonus episode, Jayson joins Michael Ely on his podcast and YouTube channel, Just Legal History. They are also joined by Brett from The Prosecutor's Podcast to have a discussion on the free press and a fair trial. In this discussion, they talk about the idea of how do we balance the first amendment right to a free press and for the public to know the actions of their government and protect freedoms at the same time protecting a defendant's right to a fair trial. Explore all sorts of things from yellow journalism, current cases that exist, the expansion of social media and how it's impacted the way that the criminal justice system is covered and the importance of the free press to our democracy, our freedoms and our ability to actually have fair trials.

In this bonus episode, Alison Dickson and Jayson unraveled a dark saga of Patty Cannon, a mastermind behind what was called the reverse underground railroad. Patty and her gang, The Johnson Cannon Gang would capture free blacks and runaway slaves in the north and sell them to Southern Plantation owners who are desperate in the wake of them after imported slaves were banned in 1807. Patty and her gang focused on making mayhem and stole up to 10,000 individuals but Patty in her own right was a noted serial killer with some account stating that she had dozens of bodies of men, women and children of varying ages buried on her property. At the time of her 1829 arrest, Patty Cannon was someone who was just looking for financial profit or is the financial profit just cover for the serial killing that she wanted to do?
