Show Notes

Bob McCullough stood out among prosecutors nationally for his success getting the death penalty for defendants he prosecuted. He’s been out of office since 2019 but three of the 23 people he sent to death row are scheduled for execution in coming months. Ryan Krull has a deep dive into Bob McCullough’s legacy published this week in the Riverfront Times. It is part of a series exploring the death penalty in St. Louis County called “Shadow of Death” sponsored by River City Journalism Fund.
