Politics and Religion. We’re not supposed to talk about that, right? Wrong! We only say that nowadays because the loudest, most extreme voices have taken over the whole conversation. Well, we‘re taking some of that space back! If you’re dying for some dialogue instead of all the yelling; if you know it’s okay to have differences without having to hate each other; if you believe politics and religion are too important to let ”the screamers” drown out the rest of us and would love some engagin ...

This week, Twisted Listeners, we take a look at a few infuriating cases of false confessions. Of all the topics we've covered, few have had so many stories to choose from, which was both fun for research, and upsetting to know so many people got to prison for no reason at all, sometimes for their entire lives.
These cases range from vindicating to infuriating, with a little bit of everything in between as well. So tune in and enjoy... as best you can!
Cases Covered:
1. The Guðmundur and Geirfinnur case
2. Alvin Latham
