In this updated episode, we're revisiting a case we covered back in 2020: the shocking story of Amy Bishop, who committed a mass shooting at the University of Alabama in Huntsville in 2010. Since we first discussed the case, there have been several important updates. Stick with us as we dive into what’s happened since then.

Join us for a refresher on Amy’s strange and twisted story—a disgruntled Harvard graduate, a secret neighborhood pizza party, and a series of bizarre events that escalated into violence. From the tragic shooting of her brother to her infamous shooting spree at the university, we’ll revisit the highs and lows of this truly bizarre and disturbing case. But don’t worry, we’ve got some good updates too!

We’ll be sharing the latest developments, including the rejection of Amy’s attempt to overturn her conviction, and the groundbreaking medical research that came from this case, led by one of the survivors. It's a full-circle moment that turns tragedy into hope for others.

This is an updated episode packed with new insights and shocking revelations, and we’re bringing you all the details. Tune in to hear it all!

In conjunction with our new episode on Chris Tapp’s tragic death, we’re re-releasing our original episode about Angie Dodge’s heartbreaking murder. In this episode, we dive into the details of Angie’s unsolved murder in Idaho and the tireless fight her mother, Carol Dodge, waged for justice—not only for Angie but also for Chris Tapp, who was wrongfully convicted of her death.

This is the first part of the story, and we encourage you to listen to both episodes as we follow the twists and turns that eventually led to Chris’s exoneration and, tragically, his untimely death. Both episodes are essential to understanding this complex case and the ongoing search for justice.
