The Murder the Police Tried to Bury... and the Students Who Wouldn't Let Them
In 1990, 17-year-old María Soledad Morales left a spring festival in Argentina and never came home. What followed wasn't just a murder investigation — it was a masterclass in how power protects itself, and what happens when ordinary people decide they've had enough. A nun named Sister Martha helped lead weekly Silent Marches of students and townspeople that grew into a national movement, forced federal intervention, and eventually shook a political dynasty to its core. Caroline and Daryl break down the case, the cover-up, the extraordinary protests that changed Argentina, and what it actually takes to hold powerful people accountable. Plus: media recommendations, a few wild tangents, and the usual chaos.
