Summary

In last week's episode we had a short bonus current event that intrigued us. We ended up falling in the rabbit hole, and we're covering his whole story to date this week. Nicholas is allegedly a rapist and conman who died in 2020. So how and why is he back in the news trying to be extradited from Scotland?

0:00.0	Hey everyone, it's Jen.
0:25.2	And this is Lindsay.
0:26.5	And welcome back to Corpus Delicti, the podcast.
