*Additional content warning: This case is about the death of a baby, and there is mention of domestic violence and animal abuse. Please take care when listening.

The intention of this episode is to take a look back at a shocking crime sensationalized through headlines, how it captured public attention and inspired vigilante justice. It also reveals the stark differences between Canadian and American news coverage that played a pivotal role in the way this crime—and the stories about this crime—played out.
