From Deep Cover: Who Was Bob Cooley?
<div>Deep Cover tells true stories of crime and corruption. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jake Halpern reveals dark underworlds most of us know nothing about. The new season, Mob Land, tells the true story of a high-rolling Chicago lawyer who fixed court cases for the mob. He did this for years... until he decided to betray them and work with the FBI! <br> <br> He wears a wire to expose a black market of corruption - where politicians were bought and justice was sold. Where, for the right price, even murderers could walk free. With first-hand interviews from FBI agents, mobsters, family members, and criminals, the story is truly a wild journey into a world of corruption, murder and deceit. <br> <br> Today, we're sharing a preview of Episode 1. You can listen to the new season of Deep Cover now at <a href="https://link.chtbl.com/infamousamericadeepcover">https://link.chtbl.com/infamousamericadeepcover</a> </div>

Introducing Suspect
A big Halloween party at an apartment complex in Redmond, Washington; themed rooms and costumed partygoers. But by the end of the party, one of the hosts is dead. The police look to the partiers as the prime suspects: was it the guy in the devil mask, the bank robber, the construction worker? As investigators comb through forensic evidence, witness testimony, DNA, and even consult with a psychic, they zero in on one suspect in particular. But for what reason?

Host and reporter Matthew Shaer (Over My Dead Body) returns to the scene of the crime, speaks with everyone about a night that still haunts them years later. It’s a series about race and policing, mislaid justice, cutting-edge science, and the kinds of weighty choices that cops and prosecutors make every day -- choices that, once made, are difficult to reverse.

S4 Ep12: Crossing Paths

In reality, it’s a multi-faceted network built on generations of blind loyalty, spawning corruption and ruthless violence. <br> <br> In this episode, we’ll follow the path from Charles “Lucky” Luciano and his merciless plot to end a brutal power struggle in New York to Joseph Valachi, whose testimony opened the vault to a world previously hidden in the shadows. <br> <br> This episode is sponsored by: <br> <a href="https://burrow.com/mafia">Burrow</a> <br> <a href="https://www.babbel.com">Babbel</a> - Promo code: <strong>MAFIA <br> </strong><a href="http://betterhelp.com/mafia">BetterHelp</a> <br> <br> Mafia's theme is "Spellbound Hell" by <a href="http://damianobaldoni.altervista.org/index.php/en/">Damiano Baldoni</a>.
