Big news on another podcast from the team behind Bear Brook: The 13th Step. That series investigates allegations of sexual misconduct against Eric Spofford, the founder of a major addiction treatment provider in New England, allegations Spofford denies. Now, federal prosecutors say Spofford organized violent acts of vandalism against Lauren, her parents and her editor, all in hopes of shutting that reporting down.

Bear Brook, hosted by Jason Moon, is the critically-acclaimed true crime

podcast from New Hampshire Public Radio. 

Season 1 - Two barrels. Four Bodies. And a cold case that’s changing how

murders will be investigated forever.

Season 2: A True Crime Story - Jason Carroll is serving life in prison

for a murder he says he didn’t commit. The only evidence against him?

His own taped confession. More than 30 years later, is it possible to

get to the truth – and who gets to tell it?

Stephen King called both seasons “the best true crime podcasts I've ever

heard. Brilliant, involving, hypnotic.” The New Yorker said season one

“stands out for its ambition, complexity, and thoughtful tone.”
