Journalist Andrew Goldman joins "Mind Over Murder" co-hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley to discuss his new podcast "Dead Certain: The Martha Moxley Murder," which covers the 1975 case of Martha Moxley.  Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel was convicted of Moxley's murder in 2002. His conviction was later overturned due to inadequate counsel, and after several back and forth decisions, the State of Connecticut declined to pursue charges against Skakel in 2020. This bonus episode is part 2 of 2 parts covering "Dead Certain," and originally ran on February 19, 2026.
