Interesting Case
An interesting case that shows how easily the justice system can be manipulated and how the cards are stacked to keep people incarcerated. You can have whatever opinion you want about the victims or the murderer in this case, but I find it funny how many people who lack critical thinking skills leave a bad review for the podcast because of their emotional response to the content. This podcast is very thorough and thought provoking. If you’ve formed an opinion at all, they’ve done their job. That said, Jacob Wideman was 16 when he committed murder, the same age as his victim, Eric Kane. If he “killed a child,” then it stands to reason he was also a child at that time. Certain types of people really love to take childhood away from people of color (see: every tween or teen brown and black boy who’s gone out for skittles after dark, played with a toy gun, looked in the general direction of white woman, or wore a hoodie being labeled an automatic threat or “thug” and murdered shortly thereafter). The Kanes need serious therapy. Their grief is understandable, but their preoccupation with hate and vengeance, having wanted MORE child death to occur to appease them, is sick. I hope they can find peace and allow others to find peace, too.

This show is among the best podcasts I’ve heard. True crime stories are often black and white, but this deals with all the grays. Beth is a compassionate and thorough storyteller, and Jake is a thoughtful and brave subject. I encourage everyone to listen with an open heart and a critical mind.

The promotion of entitlement to mercy (from the victims’s family, from the parole board) on a killer makes this a very irritating storyline.

I live in AZ and I am sickened by the corruption in the prison system here. Ridicules! This man deserves a second chance. Let him go! My heart brakes for him & his wife. So unfair!
