And that's a story that I think most people don't really know the details of that because it's not told in a format that's really accessible to people unless you're like a history buff or really interested in the history of racial injustice in this country. I was like, what would it look like if we told stories that are typically considered history, but in a true crime format?

What would these stories sound like if we told them like they were a true crime story? And they are true crime stories. I also like to tell stories that play around with this idea of culpability and who is the perpetrator and who is the victim, because I don't think it's always as clear as some true crime would make it out to be. Oftentimes, it's much more complex.

One of the cases that we're covering, this should be out when most people hear this episode. I'm doing an episode on Alice Sebold and Anthony Broadwater. Alice Sebold is the author of the book, The Lovely Bones, which was adapted into a movie. Before Alice Sebold wrote The Lovely Bones, she wrote this book called Lucky. And Lucky is a memoir. And it's actually about her own rape.

that she was the victim of in college and the subsequent trial that convicted her rapist. The man convicted of her rape was Anthony Broadwater, just a man living in Syracuse, New York at the time. And it turned out Anthony Broadwater was not the person who had assaulted Alice Sebold.

And he was convicted and sent to prison, served out his full term, and in recent years was exonerated because of a whole series of wild events that we get into in the episode that involved them trying to adapt this memoir into a movie and running into lots of issues because there were problems with the prosecution against him. Alice Siebold was raped. She was attacked. That did happen.

She wrongly identified Anthony Broadwater as her attacker. And that's actually a really common phenomenon, especially cross-racially, which it was in this case. That's a case where it's like, who is the victim and who is the perpetrator? It's really confusing. I really wanted to dive into those nuances.

We have another case about a man who is currently on death row in Alabama, who I firmly believe is innocent and whose stakes are literally life and death. His name is DeForest Johnson. So we hope to get his story out there and lots of others too.
