Another Not Guilty tells the stories true crime won’t touch — the real cases where the government gets it wrong, the defense fights back, and justice somehow survives. Hosted by public defenders who’ve seen everything from police “oopsies” to prosecutorial plot twists, ANG gives you a front-row seat to the wild, emotional, hilarious, and infuriating world inside America’s courtrooms.
Each episode features real public defenders sharing the cases that made them laugh, cry, or question reality. These are true stories of everyday people thrown into a system built to convict — and the defenders who fought like hell to prove otherwise.
You’ll hear unforgettable cases like:
• “Meth, Murder, and a Missing Boyfriend” — a dark, twisty saga with cartel rumors, a desert crime scene, and a defendant everyone assumed was guilty… until he wasn’t.
• “Pin the Gun on the Homie” — where a gun supposedly teleported between suspects.
• “Is That a Burrito in Your Pocket?” — where police mistook a wrapped burrito for a deadly weapon.
• “Where Are Angie’s Pants?” — the chaotic courtroom showdown where missing pants became Exhibit A.
Some stories are hilarious, some are heartbreaking, and some will make you want to flip a courtroom table — but they’re all true.
We mix humor with honesty because that’s how public defenders survive this work: laughing so we don’t cry, telling the truth because others won’t, and fighting because someone’s freedom depends on it.
