Episode 1: Have you heard of Derek Smith?

This year I teamed up with arguably the world’s biggest true crime podcast, Casefile, to bring you the story of an incarcerated man I met some time ago who was suing Sean “Diddy” Combs for 100 million dollars.Across this seven-episode series we go on a wild ride through allegations of assault, corruption, and murder for hire which, Derek claimed, all led to his wrongful conviction.
