Why were truckers in kidnapping cases able to go free so easily‪?‬ Long-Haul Crime Log

It’s a troubling case: Two truck drivers accused of kidnapping women and then forcing them into prostitution or holding them for ransom.

In the latest episode of FreightWaves’ true-crime podcast, Long-Haul Crime Log, co-host and investigative reporter Clarissa Hawes looks into the case and the uncomfortable questions that the FBI wouldn’t answer.

Joining Hawes in the episode, co-host and producer Nate Tabak.
