Trial by Water

Trial by Water is an investigative podcast series about Robert Farquharson, who has been locked up for decades for an unthinkable crime: murdering his three sons in a dam on Father’s Day, 2005.

Now scientists and lawyers are asking the question: did we get it wrong? And is this man in prison for a crime he didn’t commit?

What about Chris Watts?

Love the show, but what about Chris Watts or Scott Peterson? They went from zero to 100. What about Susan Smith or Andrea Yates? Lori Vallow?

Brilliantly written told and produced

I do much prefer a Podcast with a point of view and this has one based on scientific evidence. And so much better than some other “trial by podcast” that seek to try folks BEFORE they’ve been to trial (eg Teachers Pet). It seems so much more virtuous to use Podcasts to right the wrongs of justice gone awry than seek to convict in the court of public opinion! This Podcast was so well crafted and so easy to follow the strands — well done. I hope some good comes of this!
