In this episode of True Crime Time, Woody Overton takes listeners through a mix of shocking, tragic, and deeply meaningful true crime stories.

The episode covers:

• A bizarre case involving a man stealing brisket

• A tragic shooting at a public park in Georgia

• Reflections on the responsibility of investigators

• The wrongful conviction and eventual exoneration of Michael Morton

• The powerful story of Herman Williams and his fight for justice

• Ongoing efforts to bring attention to unresolved and overlooked cases

Woody also shares personal reflections on audience support, recognition from Spotify, and why continuing to investigate, question, and speak out matters — especially when lives have been permanently altered by failures in the criminal justice system.

This episode reinforces a central message: never give up, never surrender, and never stop fighting for the truth.
