Summary

In this episode, Tim Pilleri & Lance Reenstierna speak with former sheriff and homicide detective, turned author, John Wesley Anderson. John joins to discuss his excellent book, LOU AND JONBENÉT: A Legendary Lawman's Quest To Solve A Child Beauty Queen's Murder. Lou is Lou Smit, John’s friend and legendary homicide detective. Needing investigative help, the Boulder DA brought Lou in, however, he was soon disenchanted with law enforcement’s obsession with the Ramsey family as the primary suspects, excluding other possibilities. What follows is years and years of misinformation, unaccounted for evidence and a media driven narrative.  Buy and leave a review of John's book: https://a.co/d/1m7QG5i. This episode was originally published on Crawlspace on March 22nd, 2023. For more on John, including speaking engagements: https://wildbluepress.com/john-wesley-anderson-bio/.
