S4B49 True Crime with a Purpose: Turning Tragedy into Change

| S:4 E:49

Introduction:

In this special episode, while Katherine and I are working hard on Season 5 of Stop the Killing, we’re excited to share something impactful with you. Today, we’re bringing you a previously subscriber-only episode, but if you're already a subscriber on Patreon or Apple, there's also an exclusive bonus episode waiting for you today!

Additionally, we’re taking this chance to introduce you to one of our favorite interviews that you might have missed. I had a thoughtful conversation with Ben, the host of Crime Capsule, where we dive into the power of true crime media to make a difference in the real world. We discuss how telling the stories of victims, focusing on ethical storytelling, and raising awareness can prevent future tragedies.

Summary of Key Topics Covered:

  • The role of true crime media in raising awareness and making a positive societal impact.
  • Ethical storytelling in true crime: how to avoid sensationalism and respect victims.
  • Why focusing on solutions, not just the crime, can drive real-world change.
  • The challenges and responsibilities of being a true crime creator in a world of tragedy.
  • How media can inspire communities to take action and prevent future crimes.
