Hung is a true crime podcast focused on cases that resist easy answers. In each episode, a mother and daughter independently examine the same criminal case from two distinct perspectives. One host evaluates the case as though she were a juror, limiting herself strictly to trial transcripts, testimony, and admitted evidence — the case as it exists inside the courtroom.
