BAXTER-Learn more about "In the Dark," the Peabody Award-winning podcast from APM Reports.
The investigative and documentary news team that covered the Jacob Wetterling case in its first season returned for a second season to follow the story of Curtis Flowers.
Host and award-winning lead reporter Madeleine Baran and APM Reports editor-in-chief and managing director Chris Worthington will lead a discussion on how the investigative team chooses their stories and how they pursue them. Registration and refreshments will be 5:30-6 p.m. Nov. 1, with the program and question-and-answer session from 6-7 p.m. at Arrowwood Lodge, 6967 Lake Forest Road, Baxter.
The team's reporting involved relocating to Mississippi for a year, talking to hundreds of people and reading thousands of documents to understand how Flowers came to be tried multiple times for the same crime and why the same local prosecutor continues to try him.
The New York Times' David Leonhardt described the second season of "In the Dark" as fantastic. It's been hailed as incredible and named one of the year's best podcasts by Vulture.
