Summary

During the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia, a pipe bomb exploded in Centennial Olympic Park during a free concert—killing two and injuring over 100 people. The nation was horrified, and authorities were desperate for answers.

Before long, all eyes turned to a security guard named Richard Jewell. Once hailed as a hero for spotting the suspicious backpack and helping evacuate the area, Jewell quickly became the FBI's prime suspect. The media frenzy was relentless, painting him as guilty before any evidence could support the claim.

But Jewell didn’t do it. And the real bomber? He was still out there—plotting more attacks.

Join us as we revisit this chilling act of domestic terrorism, the devastating consequences of rushing to judgment, and the long road to justice for both the victims and Richard Jewell himself.
