Summary

In this week’s episode, Bob interviews the hosts of “The Prosecutors” podcast, Brett and Alice. As suggested by the name, Brett and Alice are both currently working prosecutors and use their platform to cover some of the most famous cold cases from their unique perspectives. The duo chat about a range of topics with Bob, both serious and not-so-serious, including the tragedy of being an Alabama football fan, the cosmic entity Cthulhu, corruption in the criminal justice system, jury selection, and, of course, dogs. They then discuss the mysterious disappearance of 9-year-old Asha Degree. In the early morning hours of February 14, 2000, Asha woke up, packed some of her favorite things into a backpack, and left her family’s home. She was spotted by several motorists walking along a highway through dark, stormy weather. When one motorist approached her, she ran into a nearby forest never to be seen again. Shortly after her disappearance, some of her belongings were found in a shed near where she was last spotted, along with a photo of another young girl. Many believe that the identity of the girl in the photo may lead to answers in Asha’s disappearance, but to this day, the girl has never been identified. More than a year later, Asha’s bookbag was also located, and the circumstances in which it was found have led many to believe that foul play was involved.
