Welcome back Law Ghost friends to episode 8. For our 2nd episode for mental health awareness month, Brenna will tell Dani about Andre Thomas: A man struggling with a severe mental illness that is left untreated from a very young age and the tragedies that he committed against his family.

HEADPHONE USERS: Please note we get very loud (for good reason) beginning at 23 minutes.
