Hey, it's Nancy. Before we begin today, I just wanted to let you know that you can listen to

crime beat early and ad free on Amazon music included with Prime.

This podcast is sponsored by BetterHelp. We've been spending years telling stories of victims

to shake. The weight of it lingers long after the episode ends. And if you're a man, maybe you've

BetterHelp offers a way to let it out.

Better help offers over 35,000 licensed therapists around the world, and you can connect

with one online from anywhere. No awkward waiting

rooms, no commute, just real help on your terms. You deserve to be heard, and BetterHelp

makes it easy to start that conversation. Visit BetterHelp.com slash crimebeat to get 10% off your
