Hi, crime junkies. I'm Ashley Flowers, and I'm dropping in your feed for a quick little bonus episode.

So for those of you who have been following us since the very beginning, you'll remember back in 2018,

we did a couple episodes covering the disappearance of a list of turning.

Well, if you've been following the case, you'll know that just this last month,

Michael Turnie was acquitted of murder charges in a list's case.

After the prosecution rested their case, the defense filed a motion to have him acquitted,

without even presenting their case without going to a jury, and the judge approved.

Many of you have asked us to bring you an update. You asked me questions about what's next.

So I decided the best thing to do would be to bring on Sarah Turnie,

who has been Alyssa's biggest advocate over the years,

to find out exactly what happened in court and what's next for her.

Hi, crime junkies. I'm Ashley Flowers, and I'm Sarah Turnie.

Okay, Sarah, I don't even know where to start.

So I'm going to throw it to you. We know, or at least all of our listeners know,

that your father was acquitted. So the thing you've been working decades up to,

I mean, it's now officially over with not the outcome that you obviously wanted.

But the outcome, I think, you said you kind of expected.

Yeah, and I think you're correct in saying like, where do we even begin with this?

But yeah, I mean, I will say that it was not the outcome. I wanted, obviously,

but, you know, and you and I talked throughout the years of all this happening since,

I mean, you were the first person I called when my dad was arrested.

And so you've been there through it all. And yeah, I think the writing was on the wall.
