The Killer Told the Truth. The State Didn’t Listen: When justice gets it backwards with Gilbert King of Bone Valley #TrueCrimeTuesday

Published 8 months ago
Description

What happens when the justice system locks up the wrong man - and leaves the right one walking free? Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Gilbert King joins Adam to talk about Bone Valley Season 2, the shocking true-crime series following the decades-long case of Leo Schofield. Convicted of murdering his wife in 1987, Leo still sits behind bars, even after another man, Jeremy Scott, confessed. Gilbert opens up about the emotional weight of investigating this case for over six years, why Season 2 turns the focus to a killer haunted by his past, and how telling stories like these isn’t just journalism, it’s justice. This conversation goes deeper than headlines and hits harder than courtroom drama.
