Topics
Dennis Murphy: 我认为这个案件的重点在于能否将罪犯绳之以法,而不是找出谁是凶手。案件的侦破过程和最终的审判结果更引人关注。 Keith Morrison: 这是一起典型的“高动机、低证据”案件,这类案件的难点在于如何找到足够的证据来支持指控。由于没有找到尸体,证明卡罗尔已经死亡变得非常困难。而且,卡罗尔曾多次表示要离开家庭,这使得家人更容易相信她只是离开了,而不是遭遇了不幸。警方利用Facebook发布消息,试图确认卡罗尔是否还活着,但没有收到任何回应,这成为证明她已经死亡的重要证据之一。Mike的故事前后矛盾,最终导致了他的定罪。 Mike Jr.: 听到父亲亲口承认罪行,我感到悲伤,但也感到释怀。我长期以来一直怀疑父亲,听到他承认罪行后,我终于接受了这个事实。尽管经历了这一切,我和父亲至今仍然关系密切。

Shownotes Transcript

Keith Morrison and Dennis Murphy sit down to talk about Keith’s classic episode "Secrets in the Mist.” Nearly 30 years after a young mother by the name of Carol Lubahn went missing from her California home, cold case investigators built a murder case against her husband, Mike, based on a fake Facebook account and his own words to detectives. Keith and Dennis discuss what happened to Mike after he went to prison and play an extra clip from Keith's interview with Mike's son who was torn between wanting to know the truth about what happened to his mother and supporting his father. Plus, Keith discusses why he leans on things during his episodes.
