Mind Over Murder NEW: Legal Strategies for Crime Victim's Families
Nov 28, 2022

"Mind Over Murder" co-hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley discuss new legal strategies being used in the Hae Min Lee/Adnan Syed murder case, the 1965 Malcom X assassination settlement, and a new lawsuit filed in the murder of Army Private Vanessa Guillen at Fort Hood, Texas. Can these methods provide some sort of rough justice?
