Trinity Mattherson is not a man who claims he is a saint, he's not a man who says he did no wrong in his life. He is a man who grew up on the streets, with little to no rules from inside his home, a home where his parents battled drug and alcohol dependecy. From a young age Trinity would need to learn how to look after himself, how to provide and care for not only his own well being but also his m...

Under Florida’s unique laws, however, she was found guilty and sentenced for the death of her employer. The actual killing was carried out by Noe Peña , who admitted to the crime but claimed Pam orchestrated it. He took a plea deal, receiving a 30-year sentence with...

In 1995, Dusty and his swim buddy Billy Brown went out for what was meant to be a simple night of drinks. By the next morning, a young woman by the name of Jennifer Evans was dead, eight days later Billy and Dusty are arrested and e...

The law says that if you play a role in a crime, you can be treated as a principal, even if you never carried out the violence yourself. That’s what happened to Pamela Shrader, a woman struggling with addiction whose words led to a man’s death. But was it an independent act by the killer, Noe Pena, or a crime she must share full responsibility for? While the trigger man took a plea deal and will s...

In 1985, Charles McCrory found his wife, Julie Bonds, brutally murdered in their Andalusia, Alabama, home. Just two small marks on her arm—misrepresented in court as a definitive “bite mark”—became the sole forensic evidence used to convict him for her murder. A forensic odontologist, famed for testifying at Ted Bundy’s trial, claimed the impressions matched McCrory’s like a fingerprint. Yet decad...
