Malcolm Caldwell existed in a time when communism was frowned upon in the West. But he did not mind. He spent most of his life and his academic career, writing about his admiration and support of communism, especially the communist revolution in Southeast Asia. He admired Kim Il-Sung and Pol Pot. So, when he was given the chance to visit Cambodia in 1978 and meet Pol Pot, he was more than thrilled. Little did he know, his visit would not end how he may have thought it should end.
Listen now to learn more about this political murder mystery that still remains unsolved to this very day.
