New Episode!

This week, we’re wrapping up our Infamous Women series with one of the most notorious names in true crime: Aileen Wuornos.

From her traumatic childhood to her violent crimes, we dig into the legal 'twists' of her case, including:
-Was her first killing really self-defense?
-Should the jury have heard about her victim’s violent past?
-How do we decide who deserves the death penalty?

It’s a gripping mix of law, trauma, and true crime you don’t want to miss.

NEW EPISODE: Why don't more murder cases get the death penalty?

Lauren and Lacey break down the REAL reasons behind prosecutorial decisions, from protecting traumatized child victims to the shocking reality that South Carolina has 32 people on death row, but executions rarely happen.

Spoiler: It's not about being "soft on crime." It's about legal strategy, victim trauma, and a system where death sentences often take 20+ years to carry out (if ever).

Plus: Why the Kohlberger family notification controversy reveals a bigger problem with victims' rights.

Listen now to understand what REALLY happens behind the courtroom doors.
