Summary

In a look into the mind of a sociopathic killer, Collier goes through three never-before-opened letters that his father sent him from prison in 1991. His father was approaching his first full year locked up while writing these letters. Through these pages, we see hints that Collier's father still holds some major resentment towards him for testifying against him in court. In this week's listener question, we hear from a teacher who had to help a young student who (like Collier) had a father who killed her mother. Hear what Collier recommends for those struggling through this terrible trauma and how his own teachers were so important to his recovery. Collier's dad tries to relate to his son by sharing what he's been watching on TV. Hear what he thinks of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. From having cartoons drawn on his letters to getting customized fitness programs, hear how Collier's father is getting the most out of his fellow prison inmates. What kind of mental gymnastics do murderers have to jump through to try to convince others that they're innocent? Collier analyzes his dad's methods, laid out in these letters. "I'm still in the struggle to overturn this illegal conviction." These are the words Collier's father wrote to him as he began to set the stage for appealing his guilty verdict in the murder of his wife.
