We have a lot of earwax for the murder of William Lowe.

He was the castation attendant for your run.

From NBI Studios, this is Truth In Justice, a crowdsourced investigation in real time.

I'm Bob Ruff.

Today's episode is all about truth. It's about setting the record straight.

The term snowball, albeit upon in this case, is the best description of what actually happened to Jamie Snow.

One person tells a lie, which leads to a rumor, which gets spread, and leads to even more rumors.

The rumors lead to a lot of convicted felons, using Jamie's life as a bargaining chip for their own.

It went something like this. Someone says, hey, I wonder if Jamie Snow was involved in that murder?

Then that turns into, I heard Jamie was involved.

Before too long, everyone in town is saying that Jamie was involved in Bill's murder.

Then, here's a demand in jail, who had heard the rumors that Jamie killed Bill, and is looking for a way out.

He calls the police and offers to give them testimony against Jamie in exchange for a reduced sentence.

I mean, after all, it's not like he's really snitching. Everyone is saying Jamie did it.

Then, the more people that get deals in exchange for testimony, the more people are lining up to jump in on the gravy train.

What you end up with is guys like Travis Gad is sitting down with police, trying to work out a deal.

Texas Ranger James Holland is a legendary interrogator. They call him the serial killer Whisperer.

You can't hide those indications, and that's why yesterday I knew that you did it.

But now, shocking interrogation tapes reveal how the Super Cup really operates.

And that's why they ask me to come in, because I'm special.

From something else, the Marshall Project and Sony Music Entertainment, this is Smoke Screen. Just say you're sorry.
