| 0:00.0 | From NBI Studio, this is Truth Injustice, a crowdsourced investigation in real time. |
| 0:15.9 | I'm Bob Brun. |
| 0:30.0 | Monday morning, I walked into my office contemplating what the topic of this week's episode should be. |
| 0:38.9 | I knew that it couldn't be a traditional full scripted episode. |
| 0:42.0 | I don't think I'd be winning boss of the year if I made Kelly and Shane work through |
| 0:45.2 | the holiday, so I needed something different. |
| 0:47.4 | But I also didn't want to publish just another police interview. |

| 2:03.1 | This is season 12, episode 35, The Why. |
| 2:08.7 | Texas Ranger James Holland is a legendary interrogator. They call him the serial killer Whisperer. |
