The Docket 06.24.24: Salute To America/n

the true crime that's worth your time

full episode here!

We're celebrating America's birthday a little early with a list of the best and most notable (to us) true-crime properties with "America/n" somewhere in their titles. Books, docuseries, financial malfeasance, family annihilation, old retinae and even older paperbacks -- our conversation's got them all. Take a break from potato-salad prep and join us.
