    The Norfolk Four (Part 1 of 2)
    Jul 2 2024
    *This episode is part 1 of 2. Both will be released concurrently. Part two is available now* The Norfolk Four case involves four U.S. Navy sailors who were wrongfully convicted of the 1997 rape and murder of Michelle Moore-Bosko in Norfolk, Virginia, based on coerced confessions and questionable evidence. Years later, DNA testing and other evidence led to their exoneration, highlighting issues of police misconduct and the fallibility of the justice system. Thank you to this week’s sponsors!

good true crime choice

with all the options for true crime this is a podcast to prioritize. if you aren't into small talk don't the whole thing for just 30 secs. after a while they feel like friends.

More than for just moms

A relatively light hearted take on murder. It is a fun cozy listen that more than just moms can easily enjoy.

Enjoyable!

I recently stumbled upon this podcast. I just started and am going in order. I binged on quite a few these past few days.

I like how they cover more "unknown" cases, at least for me.

I like their tone of voices and interactions.

I am a mom of 2 young kids, so I'm right in their demographic.... but so far, so good!
