Episode Details

Miami Hurricanes football standout Bryan Pata was months from the NFL when he was shot outside his apartment in 2006. Fifteen years later, former teammate Rashaun Jones was arrested and charged in the killing, but the case swerved again when ESPN reporters located a supposedly “deceased” eyewitness…alive. With the witness now deemed unfit to testify and prior statements set to be used at trial, Jones maintains his innocence as the court date resets for February 2026. In this episode, Katie retraces the rivalry, the evidence, the media’s role, and the two-decade fight for justice by Pata’s family.
