Hey fellow humans, Jen here. If you're looking for a new true crime mini-series that will keep you on the edge of your seat,

you should check out the newest season of Wondery's hit podcast Over My Dead Body. Season three is set in the small town of Fox Lake, Illinois,

not too far from Michigan, and is the shocking true story of Officer Joe Glynowitz. Joe was a hometown

hero and a 30-year veteran of the local police department. On September 1st, 2015, just one

month from retirement, he was found dead outside of an abandoned cement plant, shot in the chest

twice at close range. While the town and Joe's

family mourned his passing, hundreds of police officers launched a manhunt to find his killer.

After weeks of searching, the lead investigator discovered chilling secrets about Joe, the local

police department, and the village of Fox Lake. Secrets that once uncovered

would put the town in the national spotlight and haunt them for years to come. Over My Dead

Body's third season is a story about corruption, betrayal, and the secrets of a fallen hero. I'm about

to play you a preview of Over My Dead Body's new season, Fox Lake.

to a fallen hero, a local police officer, the 25th cop nationwide, to be shot dead in the line

of duty that year.

It had been one of the hottest summers on record,

and inside the crowded high school theater, where the funeral was taking place,

the temperature was almost unbearable.
