Show Notes

Michael Skakel’s trial verdict is returned. The witnesses called by the State were a pivotal part of the otherwise largely circumstantial case against Michael. But a careful examination of their testimony and motivations raises questions. Michael speaks about the alleged confessions and shares more revealing anecdotes about his upbringing, the Elan School, and the Moxley case.
