The Steve Nunn Case, Pt. 3: Amanda Ross, Her Law and the Limits of Justice

The Steve Nunn Case, Pt. 3: Amanda Ross, Her Law and the Limits of Justice

The murder of Amanda Ross sent shockwaves through Kentucky and beyond. In The Steve Nunn Case, Pt. 3: Amanda Ross, Her Law and the Limits of Justice, the final installment of our three-part series, we look beyond the crime itself and examine the lasting impact of Ross’s death — and the fight for change that followed.

Ross's mother turned grief into advocacy, pushing for stronger protections for victims of domestic violence. The result was Amanda’s Law, a measure designed to use GPS monitoring to help keep survivors safe. But the law that ultimately enacted was far weaker than intended — and heartbreakingly, would not have protected Ross herself.

Hosts Marcus Roland and Emily Steele explore the politics, compromises and obstacles that shaped the law, as well as the programs and resources created in Ross's name.

Trigger warning: This episode discusses domestic violence and intimate partner homicide. Listener discretion is advised.
