46. The Murder of Julie Yow

It's safe to say we felt like we were holding pitchforks this ENTIRE episode. Every case we cover is tragic, but it truly hits different knowing the justice system failed this woman in the worst way. In December 2022, Julie Yow was living in Columbus, Indiana and expecting her third child. However, she was under extreme stress and living in fear daily. Julie was denied a protective order against her estranged husband just 10 days before she was killed at his hands. We're dedicating this episode to sharing Julie's story and joining the push to change Indiana's protective order laws.
