Ashley Spence’s life was shattered at 19 after a violent assault by a stranger—but that’s not where her story ends. In this episode, she shares how she navigated years of fear, silence, and self-destruction before finding healing, reconnecting with her body, and ultimately testifying in court to help put her attacker away. It’s a story of quiet resilience, the power of community, and the journey back to self. https://www.amandaknox.com⁠⁠ Bluesky: @⁠⁠amandaknox.com⁠⁠ | @wisecracker.bsky.social IG: ⁠⁠@amamaknox⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠@emceecarbon⁠⁠ Free: My Search for Meaning: ⁠⁠https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/amanda-knox/free/9781538770719/ Learn more about your ad choices.

A year shy of turning 40, Minda Lane realized she wasn't happy in her marriage, and she proposed to her husband Jack that they try out polyamory. She didn't antipate how this would dredge up her old trauma, and force her to reckon with who she really was. Minda Lane is the author of "Men, Myself, and I: Revelations of an Opened Marriage," available on her substack @tenderhuman and on Amazon. https://www.patreon.com/knoxrobinson⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://www.amandaknox.com⁠⁠ Bluesky: @amandaknox.com | @wisecracker.bsky.social IG: ⁠⁠@amamaknox⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠@emceecarbon⁠⁠ Free: My Search for Meaning: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/amanda-knox/free/9781538770719/ Learn more about your ad choices.

True crime has become a massive industry that takes real life suffering as grist for the content mill. Is it possible to tell such stories in an ethical way? How did we even get here? To answer these questions, we're diving into history to see where true crime came from, how it evolved, and where it is today. Along the way, we'll be talking with victims, podcasters, filmmakers, critics and other true crime luminaries. This is part 1 of Blood Money, a five-part miniseries.

On July 29th 1984, Jennifer Thompson was raped at knifepoint by a man who broke into her apartment while she slept. A day later, Ronald Cotton was arrested wearing gloves and a blue shirt with white stripes on the sleeves, an identical outfit to Thompson’s attacker. He was sentenced to life in prison. After identifying Cotton in a physical lineup, Thompson trusted law enforcement had caught the perpetrator. 11 years later, however, that trust was broken. In Thompson’s own words, the public scrutiny and guilt that ensued after Cotton’s release “far outweighed” what had been done to her in 1984.  https://www.amandaknox.com Bluesky: @amandaknox.com | @wisecracker.bsky.social IG: @amamaknox | @emceecarbon Learn more about your ad choices.

Most of us believe we would never confess to a crime we didn’t commit. But by our best estimates, there are are upwards of 5,000 innocent people locked up in our prison system who falsely confessed.
