Science Fiction - The Forensics that Framed Michelle Taylor
Episode 58
When Michelle Taylor lost her son in a tragic house fire, she thought the nightmare couldn’t get worse. She was wrong. Fueled by junk science, broken forensics, and a crime lab running on expired credibility, the prosecutors turned a grieving mother into a murder suspect. Twelve debris samples. Twelve false positives. And a justice system more interested in closing a case than finding the truth. This is the story of how bad science—and worse judgment—can burn an innocent life to the ground. Michelle Taylor stands for sentencing on May 30th. The fire didn’t destroy her life. The system did.
A mother’s grief.
A lab’s lies.
A system that chose conviction over truth.
This is Michelle Taylor’s story.
This podcast is a true crime podcast about arson and criminal fires. Listener discretion is recommended.
