F**k That
The truth is stranger - and darker - than fiction. Ash digs into true crime cases the rest of the media left for dead - cold cases, corruption, and the stories that don’t fit the headline formula.
Phang vs. Blanche - The Epstein Files Transparency Act Lawsuit Part Four
Apparently, the DOJ thought congressional silence was a good enough excuse to ignore federal law. In Part Four, I get into DOJ's latest excuses, Katie Phang's motion to hold Todd Blanche in contempt, and the Senate hearings where Epstein survivors testified about the department exposing their personal information. Blanche managed to find nine hours to interview Ghislaine Maxwell, but couldn't find time for survivors until his confirmation was on the line. And yes, the Senate confirmed him anyway.

Phang vs. Blanche - The Epstein Files Transparency Act Lawsuit Part Three
The Department of Justice claimed it had complied with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Katie Phang identified five alleged violations and asked a federal judge to intervene. In Part Three, I cover her motion for a preliminary injunction, DOJ's arguments for why she shouldn't be allowed to sue, Phang's response, and Judge Emmet Sullivan's decision to grant the injunction after DOJ failed to substantively address a single one of the five alleged violations.

Phang vs. Blanche - The Epstein Files Transparency Act Lawsuit Part Two
After months of promises, missed deadlines, disappearing documents, and a release that somehow exposed victims while still leaving major questions about what DOJ withheld, journalist and attorney Katie Phang sued Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche over the Epstein files.
In this episode, I get into the initial lawsuit complaint, and some embarrassing audio of Todd Blanch that I'm sure he wished didn't exist.

After months of promises, missed deadlines, disappearing documents, and a release that somehow exposed victims while still leaving major questions about what DOJ withheld, journalist and attorney Katie Phang sued Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche over the Epstein files.
In this episode, I get into Pam Bondi’s disastrous rollout, what the Epstein Files Transparency Act actually required, the records and redactions at the center of Phang’s lawsuit, and why DOJ is still arguing that it has already done enough.

The Deaths of David Coots and Coy Hilliard
Two men dead in Texas at 39, and 43 years old. The common denominator? Both men were married to the same woman whose father was a recently retired corporal at the local county sheriff's department.

Discharged to Die - Hospital Negligence and the Price of Being Ignored
Reasa Selph brought her son to the ER with the flu. They gave him fluids and sent him home. Two weeks later, his skin turned yellow, his body was failing, and the infection traced straight back to the IV they placed that day. The same hospital dismissed him... twice. By Christmas morning, he was being rushed to another facility, fighting for his life with sepsis. What came next wasn’t just a medical crisis - it was a cover-up, a lawsuit, and a mother’s refusal to stay quiet about the system that almost killed her child.

Chappaquiddick: The Night Ted Kennedy Left Mary Jo Kopechne Behind
In 1969, Senator Ted Kennedy drove off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island, leaving 28-year-old Mary Jo Kopechne trapped in a submerged car. He passed several houses, swam across the channel, and waited ten hours before telling anyone. By the time help showed up, she was gone, and the spin was already in motion. What followed wasn’t justice. It was damage control.

Martha Moxley: Money, Murder, and the Kennedys - Part Three
In 1975, 15-year-old Martha Moxley was murdered in Belle Haven, Connecticut - a case later linked to the Kennedy family.
Martha was beaten to death with a golf club in her own backyard. The last person seen with her? The teenage son of one of the wealthiest families in Belle Haven—rich, connected, and untouchable. This should have been an easy case to solve, but from the moment Martha’s body was found, it was clear that only money and power would dictate what happened next.
