We put three of the most talked-about cases in true crime in front of a defense attorney and former prosecutor and asked him to connect them. In Anna Kepner's case, our guest explains how a judge can concede that an adult would be jailed and still leave a young defendant free, and what the conditions of that release really require. In the Dan Markel case, he breaks down why two people the state has openly called co-conspirators — Wendi and Harvey Adelson — have never been charged, what limited immunity protects, and how hard it is to prove someone lied about what they knew. And in the Sandra Birchmore case, he reads the meaning of a rare reversal on a death certificate, a bail denial built on evidence a judge called very strong, if not overwhelming, and a defense that keeps losing. Taken together, these cases are a master class in the distance between suspicion and accountability. Our guest offers the experienced, both-sides-of-the-aisle analysis that explains not just what happened, but why each one broke the way it did — and which accused he believes is most likely to walk.
