Episode 184 - Standing Her Ground - The Case of Brittany Smith

On a snowy January night in 2018, while most people were fast asleep and still enveloped in their post-holiday glow, the crack of a pistol shattered the silence of the frigid air.

In a cozy little home in Stevenson, Alabama, a man had just been shot.

Once. Twice. And then a third time before he fell.

As he lay bleeding on the kitchen floor and as his shooter worked frantically to save his life, no one could be prepared for the harrowing events that were about to unfold.
