Something unexpected happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield in Bone Valley Season 1. Every time I hear about my dad, it's, oh, he's a killer. He's just straight evil. I was becoming the bridge between Jeremy Scott and the son he'd never known. At the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer.

Hi, Betrayal family. It's Andrea Gunning. I want to introduce you to a new weekly true crime show that our team at Glass Podcast has just launched. It's called American Homicide and is hosted and produced by my colleague Sloane Glass, who I have here today. Hi, Sloane. Hi, Andrea. You guys may not know this, but Sloane worked on season two of Betrayal, so she's very... close to the Betrayal team? Yeah, it feels very close to my heart. I mean, the highlight for me working on Betrayal was interviewing Avea for the show.
I'd admired her for a long time as a listener. And then getting the opportunity to sit down with her, that felt so special.
You know, I think you guys did an incredible job and they were in great hands with you. And I'm so curious, what made you want to take on a project like American Homicide?
What I really love about American Homicide is how immersive it is. It's not just a retelling. It's a reexamination of infamous true crime stories through firsthand accounts. You are hearing from law enforcement who is behind the investigations. You are hearing from lawyers. You are hearing from judges. You are hearing from victims and their friends and family. And I think what makes it so significant and special really plays off of when you are covering a story, it can be the same crime in a different location and it will have a totally different impact depending on the community. I learned this as a local news reporter and later as a national news reporter that you are dealing with very different circumstances wherever you are in the country.
When a crime takes place in, let's say, a small town, what comes to mind for me in my personal experience as a journalist, I think of in Delphi, Indiana, there was a case that had gone cold for six years. Two girls had been killed, and it was a town of 1,300 people. That's different from when a crime like that happens in a city.
The first story that we have in American Homicide, it made me feel that same way. So on the feed, we're sharing an episode of American Homicide called The Father's Day Murders. Can you tell us a little bit about what happens? The episode is called The Father's Day Murders.
Now, you just have to imagine it's Father's Day. You go to your parents' house for dinner. You open the door and you find your mom, dad, and brother beaten to death. And that's what happened to a woman in the small town of El Rancho, New Mexico. The main suspect for a substantial amount of time was the daughter who had found her family. It just leaves you wondering, what was going on here?
