In this episode we travel to New Straitsville, Ohio, to examine the suspicious death of Amy Jo Nelson — an apparent homicide that local authorities initially dismissed as an overdose while vital evidence was cleaned from the scene. We explore Amy’s life, her medical struggles, and the immediate failures that left her family searching for answers.
The episode also looks at the opioid context, allegations surrounding a man in Amy’s life, and the patterns of small-town policing that can protect the powerful. It closes with the Nelsons’ fight for justice and a call for anyone with information to come forward.
