TW: SEXUAL ASSAULT/RAPE
April is National Sexual Assault Awareness month. According to the Center for Disease Control, sexual violence affects millions of people every year in the United States. According to RAINN, someone in the U.S. is sexually assaulted every 68 seconds. 1 in 4 women have experienced either a completed or attempted rape.
Besides April being National Sexual Assault Awareness month, there are a few other reasons I wanted to discuss the cases in today’s episode. First, the rapes and sexual assaults covered in this episode actually took place near where I grew up in SE Portland, several years before I was born. And second, this episode is a warning to all listeners who live in Oregon because the asshole I’m going to talk about today is out amongst you and could actually be living in your neighborhood - and the state isn’t required to tell you that he lives there.

Man convicted of killing Vancouver woman, 27 years after her death
Vicki Black's death has been solved after 27 years, but for some, the wounds are still fresh -
This episode covers the week of 11/13 - 11/16. This week was the beginning of the defense's cases. Defense attorneys for Burbank, Collins, and Rankine offered other eyewitness testimony from the night Manny died, officers' testimony from the 2015 and 2019 incidents where Manny was arrested, a rebuttal medical expert witness who supported the defense's theory of the cause of Manny's death, and a use of force expert from Renton, Washington.
Court was cancelled the week of Thanksgiving. Trial resumed 11/27 which will be covered in the next update episode.

Today’s case is one we covered when we first started the show. I’d always planned on re-recording it and now seemed like the perfect time since so much has happened since our initial recording. Unfortunately though, this case (which is more than 30 years old) remains unsolved.
But a man named Frank Gable spent almost that entire time locked away for the murder - despite strong evidence that he didn’t commit the crime. This is the unsolved murder of Michael Francke with the wrongful conviction of Frank Gable. -
This episode covers the trial from 10/30 - 11/8, when the prosecution rested its case. Some highlights include the testimony of former Pierce County medical examiner, Dr. Clark, along with a use of force expert, John Ryan.

Halloween isn’t all about candy and pumpkins. Unfortunately, 17% more crime is committed on Halloween. And violent crime is 50% higher on Halloween than any other day of the year.
Halloween can also bring out the sinister nature of people, resulting in senseless and brutal murders. Which brings us to today’s case. This one has a lot going on: a Halloween party, a wrongful conviction, and an unsolved murder. Let’s head to Redmond, Washington back in 2008.
This is the case of Arpana Jinaga.
