Summary

Instead of Freaky Friday this week, we're bringing you A Conversation with The Hero Maker Podcast.

Hosted by Jennifer Morrison, Vermont’s Commissioner of Public Safety, and Andrea Shreeman, a Writer/Director/Executive Producer in Los Angeles, their show centers around the 1988 murders of their college friends Rachael Raver and Warren Fulton III. Rachael and Warren's killer was Alfredo Prieto, a serial rapist and murderer who was convicted of just one murder before DNA evidence linked him to 8 others across the country.

Through conversations with those involved in the case as well as outside experts, Jen and Andrea hope to distill wisdom from law enforcement, public safety, and criminal justice professionals for their audience.

We talk with them about their journey from college classmates to starting the show, the impact of true crime media on policy change, how sudden violent acts change so many of those involved, the healing power of sharing stories, and so much more.
