Slack.com slash DHQ. Hey guys, we just wanted to share a new True Crime mini series from

Wondery and Campside media that we are totally hooked on. The show is called Suspect, and

the story of Suspect starts all the way back in 2008 at a Halloween party thrown by residents

of a Redmond apartment complex. There were tons of people there that night dressed to

the nines in their costumes, drinking, dancing, and having a great time, but later that night

after the party started to die down, one of the residents was murdered in her own home.

The police spoke to those in attendance, working to piece together the night with hazy

recollections, spotty DNA evidence, and dozens of party photos. Eventually, they'd find

a Suspect, and although his DNA was at the crime scene, his story kept changing. When

they finally have him coming for questioning, the police thought he just might confess,

but that didn't happen. And that's when police decided to focus their attention on a different

man. This man's DNA was also found at the crime scene, but this man had a criminal record,

and he just so happened to be the only black man at the party that night. Suspect starts

out as a compelling who done it, but then becomes a story about both cutting edge forensic science

and misled justice, as well as race, policing, and ultimately, the kinds of weighty decisions

that both cops and prosecutors must make every day. Decisions that have the ability to change

lives forever and are almost impossible to reverse.
