Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan.

Two shocking criminal cases. Profoundly different stories. But a single unifying variable: evidence.
In this special all-in-one episode, former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony Brueski to walk us through both the Luigi Mangione suppression hearing and the early trial of Brian Walshe — side by side.

In this special all-in-one episode, former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony Brueski to walk us through both the Luigi Mangione suppression hearing and the early trial of Brian Walshe — side by side.
What you’ll get:
- A look at the body-cam video in a McDonald’s, a backpack with a ghost-gun + manifesto, and the scrambled fate of the Mangione case.
- A deep dive into Mangione’s weird behavior after the killing — surrender, confessions, chatter in custody — and what it all might mean.
- A breakdown of digital footprints, dumpster trails, and forensic evidence in the Walshe trial that could rewrite the defense’s story.
- A broader discussion of public reaction — from “Free Luigi” supporters to nervous watchers of Walshe’s fate — plus the danger of copycats and the impact on judicial precedent.
- What to watch next: suppression rulings, trial dates, possible appeals — and how both cases reflect larger tensions around ideology, justice, and the law.
This episode isn’t just about crime. It’s about how evidence shapes narratives — and why what stays or gets thrown out could define not just verdicts, but public perception of justice itself.
