Law in Culture

I have chosen to listen to a series of episodes that cover the Ghislaine Maxwell trial by the podcast TrueAnon. The podcast is hosted by union activist and media personality Brace Beldan and writer Liz Franczack. I intend to listen to 19 episodes which cover the 18 days of trial and jury deliberation in 2021 and the sentencing in 2022. Beldan and Franczack attended the trial here in New York City at the southern district court and recorded episodes each night of the trial. The podcast, which originally began in 2019 to cover the Jeffery Epstein trial in New York City, moved on to cover his past and related associates. They narrowed in on Ghislaine Maxwell during her months of hiding and subsequent arrest and trial. The podcast cannot be accurately described as true crime nor conspiracy (though their comedic name choice hints at both). Rather, they broadly offer left-wing analysis of American and global political issues and events.
