42. A Girl Named Egypt (S32E33)

Kurt Money & Kateline discuss the season 32 Dateline episode, "A Girl Named Egypt." Egypt Covington is found dead in her apartment, tied up with Christmas lights in the middle of June. It's 2017 and the legal drug dealers next door are out of town at a musical festival. So who is to blame? The Van Buren Police Department think they know who did it so they spend 3 solid years pinning it on the wrong guy. And it wasn't DNA, it wasn't a fingerprint, it wasn't an eye witness that had them so sure. It was a...lie detector test. That's it!!! Listen to this ep now to hear K$ and Kateline break down the errors and misjudgment of a no-good police department and give calm cheers to the state coppers who finally step in and just make sure when they walk into the evidence room, they do it with their eyes open. Not shut, in slumber, like the VPBD.
