About Lost Hills: The Dark Prince
About Examined: Overlooked cases that never got the real investigation they deserved. Each season features deeply reported stories about crime, punishment, and the people inside the criminal legal system. Nearly 40 years ago, in the parking lot of a community college in Port Huron, Michigan, a 20-year-old student named Scott Macklem was shot dead in broad daylight. His murder shocked the community. It made no sense. The police quickly found their suspect. There was only one problem: the man said he was nowhere near the scene of the crime. And he could prove it. In Examined: The Backfire Effect, journalist Josie Duffy Rice talks with eyewitnesses, investigators and local reporters to unravel a shocking story of judicial apathy and expedience — a story that leaves no one off the hook.

Outside of prison, Not many people think about the criminal appeals process. When they do, they tend to imagine an appeal as a singular thing or event or moment. You take your case to a higher court and they take another look. It's an insurance policy. Proof, perhaps, that it's never over. You can right a wrong. You have the opportunity to prove yourself. You can always appeal. But I'm here to tell you that the appeals process is something else entirely. […]
