Summary

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong speaks with famed attorney and legal analyst Marcia Clark to discuss the case of Nicola Gobbo, the subject of the new Wondery podcast Informants: Lawyer X. In the early 2000s, Gobbo served as a criminal defense attorney for some of Australia's biggest criminals – but when she began dishing out her clients’ secrets to the police, she sparked one of the most infamous legal scandals in Australian history. Candice and Marcia discuss how Gobbo became a go-to informant and explore the fallout of her actions. Also, Candice and Marcia discuss the latest in the case of the Menendez brothers, who could soon be granted a path to freedom from life in prison.
