Summary

For years, the Brazilian faithful sought out psychic healer John of God, but the religious leader told young women their miracles were to be performed through other techniques. The Netflix import “John of God: The Crimes of a Spiritual Healer,” explores the case of a man who used his position to assault hundreds of women. FOR OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEW OF "JOHN OF GOD" GO TO 22:30 A murder in an apartment building left cops with two viable suspects, but not enough evidence for an arrest. Did they put too much faith in a questionable interpretation of the DNA? “Suspect” from Campside Media and Wondery slowly pulls back the layers of a case with dubious assumptions, racial bias, and junk science which likely put the wrong man behind bars. FOR OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEW OF "SUSPECT" GO TO 1:00:00 In crime of the week: naked grapes.
