  • The Murder of Scott Macklem: The Guilt of Temujin Kensu: The Temujin Tapes: Part Two: "That’s Why I’m In Here Now”

    The Murder of Scott Macklem: The Guilt of Temujin Kensu: The Temujin Tapes: Part Two: "That’s Why I’m In Here Now”
    Feb 17 2026

    We are in possession of a trove of dozens of hours of phone recordings of convicted murderer Temujin Kensu made by his late wife Denise Deringer. The recordings we feature today shine a light on the real Temujin Kensu, the person he truly is when not trying to make an impression in media interviews. They depict him as a man with delusions of grandeur who appears to try to intimidate a witness in his case in supporting his story. We will hear all of that that- as well as his views on race and homosexuality. We will also share what we regard as an incriminating statement about his role in the murder of Scott Macklem.

  • Anatomy of a Trial: Attorney Tim Sledd Discusses Closing Arguments

    Anatomy of a Trial: Attorney Tim Sledd Discusses Closing Arguments
    Feb 9 2026
    We talk about a criminal trial as if it was a single event but of course that’s not entirely true. A trial is made up of multiple parts starting with jury selection and going all the way to the delivery of a verdict. Not all of these stages of a trial always get attention but each of them can be tremendously important. In fact, some attorneys claim that a trial can be won or lost in the jury selection process– and that, of course, happens before any case is made to that jury. That is why we have decided to launch a new occasional series we are calling Anatomy of A Trial. In each segment, we will talk to an experienced trial lawyer who will go in depth with us about a particular piece of a trial.Our expert today is Tim Sledd. We will be talking with Tim about closing arguments. How important are these? How should defense attorneys and prosecutors approach constructing a closing argument? Who gets the final word?Check out our upcoming book events and get links to buy tickets here: https://murdersheetpodcast.com/eventsOrder our book on Delphi here: https://bookshop.org/p/books/shadow-of-the-bridge-the-delphi-murders-and-the-dark-side-of-the-american-heartland-aine-cain/21866881?ean=9781639369232Or here: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Shadow-of-the-Bridge/Aine-Cain/9781639369232Or here: https://www.amazon.com/Shadow-Bridge-Murders-American-Heartland/dp/1639369236Join our Patreon here! https://www.patreon.com/c/murdersheetSupport The Murder Sheet by buying a t-shirt here: https://www.murdersheetshop.com/Check out more inclusive sizing and t-shirt and merchandising options here: https://themurdersheet.dashery.com/Send tips to murdersheet@gmail.com.The Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC.Áine, do you remember those moments right before we started The Murder Sheet?Yep.
