“Justice is not only blind; it is not one size fits all, and we need a more empathetic approach.”
Welcome Lauren Bright Pacheco and Bob Motta:
We’re joined on the Starline by an Emmy award winning true-crime host and a recovering criminal defense attorney. Controversy, corruption and continuing questions if Julia Bevely remains wrongfully convicted? We welcome the brains behind “Murder on Songbird Road” podcast Lauren Bright Pacheco and Bob Motta.
Friends, let’s go Beyond the Mic. Lauren, your work on the “Wrongful Conviction” podcasts won your team the 2024 anthem award winner for podcast / audio for Human and Civil Rights. Why is it important for you to find justice?
Bob, how did prosecutors get a conviction with no direct physical evidence connecting her to the crime?
As you found out more about this case, how has it changed and or angered you? Bob?
The Rockin’ 8:
It’s time for the Rockin’ 8, 8 random questions, answer with the first thing that comes to your mind. There is no Pressure. Since we have two guests, we’ll alternate questions.
1. Lauren, what was the best thing you ate in Madison, Wisconsin?
2. Bob, why is Angels’ Voices Silenced No More a non profit you believe in so much?
3. Lauren, how do you eat your corn up and down or side to side?
4. Bob, what about you?
5. Lauren, best thing about your daughter Carina?
6. Bob, best Chiacgo Bulls game you ever went to live?
7. Lauren, how do you like your coffee?
8. Bob, best concert you’ve ever seen?
Sneaking in One More:
When you are able to get justice for a wrongfully convicted person, there’s the other side of a family who doesn’t have justice. How hard is it for you to finish a case?
One Big Question:
You both look at the law and how sometimes it has failed. How does that failure change the way you see justice today?
The Wrap:
Lauren loves her mushroom coffee, Bob’s 1st concert was Prince and they both want you to listen to the “Murder on Songbird Road” podcast. Hosts Lauren Bright Pacheco and Bob Motta thanks for taking the time to talk with us today.
