| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome. I am John Cryer and this is the Undisclosed Abendum. Today we're discussing |
| 0:26.8 | episode three of Undisclosed Series on the State versus Willie Veecee. In this episode the team |
| 0:31.2 | continued investigating the case of the man who in the 1990s was convicted of second-degree murder |
| 0:35.7 | for his alleged involvement in a shooting on the streets of Philadelphia. Despite an alibi provided |
| 0:40.4 | by his employer proving his whereabouts at the time of the shooting, he was convicted and has spent |
| 0:45.6 | over 25 years in prison. With us today is one of the hosts of Undisclosed Colin Miller. How you doing Colin? |
| 0:51.7 | Good John, how are you? I'm really good. Really good. Also with us is Amber Hunt. Amber Hunt is a |
| 0:57.7 | journalist. She's a true crime author and she's a host of the wonderful accused podcast which recently |
| 1:02.6 | wrapped its second season. This iteration explored the unsolved murder of Ratho Welch. Amber in the |
| 1:08.1 | second season, first of all I've not been able to listen to the podcast yet, but my understanding is |

| 1:23.9 | she was a 54 year old woman living in Newport, Kentucky, which is when I'm working in Cincinnati, |
| 1:30.2 | I'm looking over the river at Newport. So it's right in our area. She was found dead in her apartment |
| 1:36.8 | and she counseled prison inmates. So she was one of those people. She was very developed |
| 1:43.3 | Christians should go to church and one of the ways she spent her free time was to go to jails |
| 1:49.0 | in prisons to counsel folk. And so the investigation quickly zeroed in on a man named William Virgil |
| 1:55.7 | because he was one of the people she had counseled and obviously she's a little higher risk victim |
| 2:02.0 | because she did sort of have some of these convicts come into her house and into her life and so forth. |
| 2:10.3 | So William Virgil was convicted in 1988. He is now out and the point of our season was to take a look |
| 2:21.2 | he is out because his conviction was overturned after DNA testing but there's nobody pointing |
| 2:28.1 | to his case on the prosecutor's side anyway saying yeah we got this one wrong there's rather |
