(Re-Release) Episode 35: Jacob Landin (Part 1)

In this episode, which was originally released in October of 2020, I’ll tell you the story of Jacob Landin: a beautiful, happy nine-month-old boy, bursting with life and personality, whose death from blunt force trauma to the head has been unresolved for over 33 years. Despite investigators zeroing in on a single suspect, the case, which over the years saw a periodic resurgence in police interest, has gone officially unsolved, and the man believed to have caused Jacob’s death has gone unpunished.This is the first of two episodes covering Jacob’s story. For part 2, which I will re-release tomorrow, I had the honor of speaking with Jacob’s older brother, Eric Carter-Landin. Eric, who was 6 at the time, was initially blamed for causing Jacob’s death, and he has channeled his traumatic childhood experiences and the loss of his beloved brother into his own true crime podcast, True Consequences. You’ll hear my interview with Eric in the next episode.This is part 1 of the infuriating story of Jacob Landin.Links discussed in today’s episode:For Eric’s True Consequences podcast, visit https://trueconsequences.com.
