Episode 202 - The Haunting Murder of Matthew Shepard

Content Warning - this episode contains quotes pertaining to homophobic and discriminatory language which some listeners may find upsetting.


Listener discretion is advised.


On the 7th of October 1998, 21-year old Matthew Shepard was found tied to a prairie fence at the end of a remote dirt track in Laramie, Wyoming. The young gay man had been pistol-whipped in the head over 20 times, and his brain stem had been crushed. He died 6 days later in hospital.

In this episode, the girls examine what happened that night, the defendants’ muddled legal decisions, and the latest "bombshell evidence"…
