Episode 7: House of Cards

With Derrick’s story quickly falling apart, he scrambles to get Jack back on side with more bizarre and incredible claims, but it’s too late; the house of cards has crumbled.  As Jack bids farewell to Derrick, he makes contact with an investigative journalist named Michael Volpe, who has also been looking into Derrick’s claims and, more importantly, all his so-called ‘evidence’.  Jack and Michael try to break down the man that is Derrick Smith, and just how he managed to scam the U.S. justice system. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Episode 6: What the F%# is going on

As Jack sits in his office contemplating just where to start with this story, his phone unexpectedly rings. It’s Derrick and a woman reporting to be Carly Carpenter, a woman Derrick has claimed from the start was an alleged former victim of his who had since recanted her claims, stating she was made to lie and was now his biggest supporter. With Jack caught off guard, he’s completely unprepared for one of the most important interviews in this story, though little did he know just how unprepared he really was. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

After Derrick drops a bombshell about hundreds of files being destroyed from criminal cases between the ’80s and ’90s in Detroit, Jack does some digging and speaks with a private investigator he knows in Michigan who not only knows about the purge but was, in fact, the one to uncover it. Jack struggles to work out what is real and what’s not as the stories from Derrick come thick and fast, and would conclude with allegations of an organised assassination on a police officer’s wife. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
