Imagine being wrongfully convicted for a crime you didn't commit, or imagine your child's killer is still on the loose even though there's enough evidence for an arrest. I want to help shine light on the injustices of our judicial system. I delve into court documents, attend trials, and interview those close to the case to help me tell their stories.

Court Junkie

In June 2007, 18-year-old college student Anita Knutson was found stabbed to death in her apartment. With numerous suspects, prosecutors finally focused on one and brought their case to trial.
