S3 Ep125: Jacob Landin: A Brother's Fight for Justice (Part 1)

In April of 1987, 9-month-old Jacob Jeremiah Landin died suddenly from a subdural hematoma which had put pressure on his brain and caused irreversible damage. The medical examiner determined that Jacob had died from a blow to the head, and the autopsy revealed evidence of older wounds that were in the process of healing. A partially healed fracture of one of his ribs, another subdural hematoma that was in the process of healing, and a partially healed skull fracture; the medical examiner believed that these injuries were approximately three to four weeks old, and the overall picture suggested a pattern of abuse that the baby had suffered from for an extended period of time. Reportedly, Jacob’s mothers boyfriend confessed to hurting the baby, and he was arrested, but when investigators returned to the case in 2005 they found a labyrinth of missing information, missing files, and more questions than answers. There was no report of what this man had confessed to, and even though he was arrested for child abuse, it appears he was just let go. Now, Jacob’s brother Eric is on a mission to find out why.
