Summary

In 1976, 20-year-old Tulane student Ken Gutzeit was stabbed to death in front of dozens of witnesses outside his fraternity house. His killer was arrested, and then... nothing happened. No trial. No conviction. No justice. Ken’s case has been largely forgotten, it's mentioned only briefly in Netflix’s Worst Roommate Ever as the event that allegedly changed Jamison Bachman’s life. But the real story is far more disturbing. How does someone commit a public killing with eyewitnesses and a weapon — and walk free?

Look, we're so sorry. We had to extend our break. Do you still love us? We did. We did. We had some major things happen in the last couple of weeks. Look, I will take the heat for this. Let me give you all a quick update. I'll keep it brief so we don't get too sad.
