Happy holidays - see you in 2025!
When Matt received a letter from a man awaiting trial for a murder he swore he hadn't committed, a certain type of evidence was particularly noteworthy: "Touch" DNA — traces of human matter so small and complex that they require algorithmic software to make sense of.
This was a crime that received little press coverage, yet featured a deadly Halloween party and the potential perils of evidence collection.
Matt and Eric talk about the podcast company that passed on Suspect - big mistake! - and the desire to always do more reporting for a show.
Matt has shared in the past a letter from the suspect, Emanuel Fair, and notes in the episode what a difference just one individual can make, especially a juror.
They discuss the intersection of race, policing and the justice system. And the shocking admission by a prosecutor interviewed in Suspect who believed a second person was involved in the murder.
