    S4: Betrayal Season 4 Trailer
    May 15 2025

    Introducing Betrayal Season 4. Karoline Borega married a man of honor – a respected Colorado Springs Police officer. She knew there would be sacrifices to accommodate her husband’s career. But she had no idea that he was using his badge to fool everyone.

    This season, we expose a man who swore two sacred oaths—one to his badge, one to his bride—and broke them both. We follow Karoline as she questions everything she thought she knew about her partner of over 20 years.

    Listener Mail: How Do I Help My Friend?
    May 1 2025

    A listener wrote to us with a heartbreaking question: What can I say to my friend who won’t leave an abuser? Is there anything I can say to get through to her?

    We bring on survivor Ashley Trujillo from Betrayal Season 2, who’s faced a similar choice, and therapist Jessica Baum to unpack the trauma, denial, and deep attachment that can keep people stuck.

    For more on attachment and healing, check out Jessica Baum’s book "Anxiously Attached, Becoming More Secure in Life and Love.”

loved it! Very moving. My emotions were all over the place.

Jennifer showed amazing strength & forgiveness.

Huge hug to the teenage survivor. Her courage brought this awful abuser to justice and saved Jennifer and so many others more pain.

My heart hurt listening to this, but it also beat with happiness hearing the love and forgiveness Jennifer was able to show. Even to people, she considered friends who betrayed her she still found it in her to hear their story and not lash out in anger.

A must listen.

I appreciate the honesty and candor of the storyteller. I wish they all got justice but what they taught me is that sometimes justice is a state of mind.

The levels of betrayal and the closeness between relationships.

Absolutely love this podcast! It's well scripted with both the creator's story telling dove tailed with the victim's own retelling of the often most heart wrenching examples of perfidy. However, these true crime stories are powerful in their ability to validate and prove that there is always a way through life's most difficult circumstances and situations. My only request and critique is that each episode, which comes out once a week and usually only about 30 minutes, gets combined into one full length episode per week, or released as is twice a week. I could see how folks might lose interest with such short episodes only once a week. Otherwise, it's perfect!

Unique Twist on True Crime!

I have loved Betrayal since the beginning and love that there’s a new episode every week now. I also really like the podcast about the two people missing in Philadelphia, from the same girl from betrayal. Definitely a FAVORITE

I love the way the stories are told

Love hearing the firsthand experience from those that have been betrayed! The podcast person does a great job of introducing, explaining, and bringing everything together and one whole piece.

Best Podcast Ever

I have never hated a podcast more. The log-line of this podcast reads: ‘The ex-wife of convicted sex felon Spencer Herron investigates the real story of her seemingly perfect husband and grapples with years of astonishing infidelities’, which sounds super sensational and really leans towards understanding the healing process. I can only think that the premise of this podcast came about after a night of wine and commiseration with friends, that ended with,”OMG you should totally do a podcast!” I was promised a journey of discovery and what I got was a desperate declaration to the world, ‘LOOK, I WASN’T THE ONLY ONE HE BETRAYED AND TRICKED, as if the sheer quantity of other women he tricked helps lessen the blow he made to her life. It felt like she used the other betrayed women to reaffirm her thoughts, her intelligence, and her worth. She used these other women’s self assessment after everything had transpired almost like a family uses a surrogate for a child..all of her emotions were placed inside them right down to her using her absolution for their actions (by proclaiming them victims, please exclude the underage student from this assessment because she truly was a victim) to enable them to recast themselves as victims, to further her desperation of not being the ONLY one.
While it was compelling to hear the other sides of the women the questions asked felt self serving which granted I know is weird thing to say..but her questions did not lend to introspection, but rather displaying his exploits to world. It just doesn’t come across that Jennifer worked on her healing in a meaningful way. Trash thing to say…I know but on a journey like this you have to learn how to trust again, how not to let the past dictate the future, and allow yourself truly live. This could’ve been more..this could’ve helped heal others, but it falls so short… Jennifer, I wish you the best.

The real betrayal is the premise.

The only victims in this story are the teenager & the wife. The rest of the women knew what they were doing. They weren't victims, they were willing participants.
There are also a lot of ads. More ads than in other podcasts I've listened to.
This story could've been told in half the time.

Good story but. .

about every 3 or 4 minutes they abetting the same story they're telling. when they're not doing that they're playing clips from the woodside before it. to the point where is ridiculous. this sort could have been told well with plenty of detail in 15 minutes. Horrible podcast.

Almost impossible to listen to

After 3 episodes, they have still failed to present anything to engage either my interest or emotions. The show seems to be little more than a carrier for the commercials (maybe 25% of the total time is commercial, maybe more.) It's quite boring.

Too many commercials, too little detail
