A message from Team Violation

Imagine you're accused of something horrific. You swear you didn't do it, but someone says they witnessed it: your own brother. Sophia Johnson was newly married with a baby on the way when she became the prime suspect in her mother-in-law's brutal murder. WBUR's Amory Sivertson reexamines a case unsolved, a family torn apart, and the woman who wasn't believed.
Hey, listeners, it's Ben Brock Johnson, executive producer of podcasts at WBUR. Thousands of
listeners have downloaded Violation, our story told with the Marshall Project over a million
times. Thanks so much for being an important part of bringing this story into the world.
I'm here to tell you two things. First, there is one final episode in the story of
Jake Wideman coming, so keep your ears out for that in the coming days. Second, because
you have been so focused on this story with us, we are bringing you another deep dive
into a compelling story. In some ways, it's a similar one. It's about a family, a crime,
and what to do when the realities of a terrible incident are far from cut and dry. Our new
project called Beyond All Repair is a reinvestigation into a murder that has been a cold case for
decades, and now the accused is ready to tell her side of the story. Stay subscribed
and following this feed in the coming weeks if you want to listen to Beyond All Repair.
That's all for now. You'll hear from us again very soon.
