Harris County, Texas, has sent more people to death row than any jurisdiction in the nation. Among them is Charles Raby. He confessed to the grisly murder of an elderly woman in Houston in 1992. But the evidence tells a different story — one in which the state went after the wrong man. In the second season of Murderville, Intercept reporters Liliana Segura and Jordan Smith explore faulty forensics... more

Riveting series. Well done ladies!!
This case is a fascinating one and the research done by the team behind the podcast is excellent - and they’ve worked hard to track down interviewees. However, the tone is at times condescending (especially when the hosts discuss the victim’s daughter) and the narrative can sometimes feel *too* one-sided.
That said, it’s still a good and important series overall and worth your time.
Plays like an over extended episode of Maury Povich. Impoverished and (frankly) stupid people running head-long into our lazy and inept legal system. This isn’t interesting. This isn’t entertaining. This is just sad on a dozen different levels. Pointless waste of time.
This podcast is highlighting a story based on feelings and presenting no evidence. Then attempting to through in another suspect, again with no evidence. There seems to be no thorough investigation just interviews with victims family. You can’t complete an investigative true crime based on interviews only. This host is attempting to jump on the investigative true crime band wagon, this is not for everyone. Horrible job wasn’t convincing. Please stop allowing anyone to make a podcast.
Just say the last names without trying to same them in such an annoying culturally appropriate way really ruins the entire series. Obviously not from TX
