51. Tastes Like Texas Justice Just Ain't Just
from Just The Tip-Sters: True Crime Podcast · host Melissa Morgan
In certainly what appears to be a series of gross miscarriages of justice, in the late 1970s Texas millionaire Cullen Davis was (a) acquitted of one murder, (b) not charged in a second murder and the attempted murder of his ex-wife and two others, then (c) got a hung jury in a SECOND trial where he was charged with soliciting the murder of two other people (and acquitted in the re-trial). ALL of this with evidence that was so compelling it would have resulted in convictions in any other place and with any other defendant. Join Melissa as she relives this outrageous story of mad entitlement, wild jealousy and how the American justice system can be corrupted through wealth and influence.
