Grab your purse Geoffs we’re going to the mall with Madison as she tells us all about ‘dead malls,’ but first Spencer is bringing us the sad reality behind some true stories of posthumous exonerations. We’ve got an obituary for a real B, a brutal one from the past, one for a mall walker and so much more, including, of course some dumb.ass.criminalllllls!
