As the case against Thomas Sophonow begins to unravel, another name comes into focus—one that was present from the very beginning.

In this episode, we examine the man who slipped through the cracks.

From early warning signs and escalating violence to repeated police contact that led nowhere, the pieces were there. They just weren’t put together.

We also explore how investigative tunnel vision, flawed procedures, and missed opportunities allowed the real suspect to remain free—while an innocent man was pursued instead.

Because sometimes the truth isn’t hidden.
 It’s overlooked.
