The Binge Cases: My Mother's Lies
Hosted by Sony Music Entertainment · EN
In the summer of 2000, Jessica Currin was found murdered in a small Kentucky town. Ray McCord’s mom Susan Galbreath had been integral in solving the crime, and even helped law enforcement put a man, Quincy Cross, in prison for life.
After Ray inherited a box of files from his mom, his world is turned upside down. Among the hand-written notes, letters and photos, he finds what he believes is a sinister lie…
As he sifted through his mother’s investigation, he realized things just weren’t adding up.
From serial killer nurses to psychic scammers – The Binge is your home for true crime stories that pull you in and never let go.

Journalist Leigh Alexander investigates a story where digital danger bursts through the screen and into real life, that will leave you wondering if any of us are really safe… Want the full story?
