Lee Strobel

I get a tip one day.

And the caller said, I knew who he was, he said, hey, go check the public file in the Ford case.

Okay, so I went to Winnemec, Indiana, where the case was being held, and I looked in the file.

There's a thing in law called a motion in limine, which means we don't want this to come before the jury, so let's litigate it before the trial.

So they had that motion, and they attached to it a bunch of secret Ford documents that they didn't want the jury to see.

But they're attached to this motion.

So I'm photocopying them.

I'm just copying all these secret documents.

And a Ford lawyer walked in and saw me in the courthouse and said, what are you doing?

Nothing, nothing, nothing.

He runs into the judge and gets an order sealing the case.

Wow.

So I was the only reporter that had all these secret documents.

So I did a series of articles that were headlines all over the country, and I ended up writing a book called Reckless Homicide.

No, no.

Yeah.

Oh, that sounds good.

I got to watch that.

Yes.

Yeah, it was the second largest church in the country at the time.
