Mel Barrett: 我制作的这个播客旨在重新审视Pamela Smart案件，并寻找新的证据，以期为她争取新的审判或减刑。我过去曾相信Pamela Smart有罪，但通过多年的研究和调查，我对这个案件有了新的看法。我相信Pamela Smart对丈夫的死负有责任，但她已经服刑足够长的时间了，并且案件中存在一些漏洞和不一致之处，值得重新审视。我会在播客中分享我调查到的新信息，并与相关人士进行访谈，包括Pamela Smart本人。 我收到了来自Pamela Smart支持者和反对者的威胁信息，这让我意识到这个案件在当地社会中引发了极大的争议。我希望通过我的播客，能够让大家更接近真相，更接近正义，更接近人性。 Bill Spencer: 作为一名当地记者，我见证了Pamela Smart案件的整个过程，并撰写了大量的报道。在我看来，Pamela Smart是该案件的主谋，她策划并指导了谋杀案的细节，并利用参加学校会议的机会为自己创造了不在场证明。虽然案件中存在一些争议点，但我仍然认为Pamela Smart应该为自己的行为负责。 Sharon: 我通过朋友Debbie，从她叔叔（法院书记员）那里获得了关于Pamela Smart审判的一些内幕信息，这让我对案件有了更深入的了解。Pamela Smart在法庭上的穿着打扮，尤其是她每天都戴着的蝴蝶结，激怒了很多人，我认为她是在试图影响陪审团。 Cecilia Pierce: 我在作证时讲述了我们是如何找到枪支的，以及Pamela Smart是如何指导我们进行谋杀的。我当时受到了很大的压力，但为了保护自己，我选择与警方合作。 Bill Flynn: 我在作证时描述了当时感受到的压力，以及Pamela Smart是如何操纵我的。 Ralph Welch: 我向警方提供了关键信息，帮助警方破案。 Pamela Smart's mother, friends and family: 他们一直坚信Pamela Smart的清白，并为她争取新的审判或减刑。 New Hampshire locals, law enforcement, legal community in New Hampshire, organizations who help to reduce sentences and release the wrongly convicted: 他们对Pamela Smart案件持有不同的看法，有些人认为她有罪，有些人认为她无辜，也有人认为她已经服刑足够长的时间了。 Pamela Smart: （此处应加入Pamela Smart本人的陈述，由于没有提供，无法补充）

Shownotes Transcript

Host Mel Barrett investigates a famous murder case that has split the community in her home state of New Hampshire right down the middle for thirty-four years. It’s a closed case, but based on what Mel uncovers this season in old police files (including surreptitiously recorded wiretaps), never before heard interviews, and a bombshell post trial interview with a juror that’s been hidden away, Mel is about to blow the case wide open.

On this season of The In Between Podcast, the Accomplice to Murder Trial of Pamela Smart goes under the microscope and Mel finds new evidence that may lead to a new trial.
