268: Centennial Olympic Parkin pommi-isku

Vuoden 1996 kesällä tuhannet ihmiset kokoontuivat kesäolympialaisia varten rakennettuun puistoon Atlantassa, Georgiassa. Myöhäisillan konsertin aikana puistossa räjähti pommi, jonka seurauksena kaksi henkilöä kuoli ja useita loukkaantui. Järjestyksenvalvojana työskennelleen Richard Jewellin ja muiden viranomaisten toiminnan ansiosta useita ihmisiä saatiin siirrettyä turvaan ennen räjähdystä. Nopeasti Richard Jewellin maine sankarina kuitenkin väistyi, kun atlantalainen sanomalehti julkaisi uutisen, jonka mukaan FBI epäili häntä pommi-iskun tekijäksi. Jakso on tuotettu yksinoikeudella Podmelle.
