By day, Robert Hansen was a quiet family man, a skilled baker, and a respected member of Anchorage, Alaska’s small community. But beneath the surface was a predator like no other. Between 1971 and 1983, Hansen abducted, assaulted, and murdered at least 17 women — though authorities suspect the number may be much higher. His twisted signature? Flying his victims into the Alaskan wilderness, releasing them… and hunting them like animals. In this episode, we uncover how Hansen evaded suspicion for over a decade, the investigation that finally caught him, and the terrifying details of his chilling double life.

With his mother visiting from Texas, he asked to take part in the prison's graduation ceremony. His university sent him a gown. Prison staff fitted him in it. Then, on the day, he was told he couldn't wear it.
Tariq chose his prison khakis instead and was told that was his choice. A few hours later he was in handcuffs, charged with disobeying an order, and moved to Northern State Prison in Newark.
In this One Minute Remaining update, we hear from Tariq about what happened, explain what an asterisk charge is, and look at how New Jersey's in house disciplinary hearings, known as court line, really work. The charge was overturned. But how did it get this far?
Listen now to One Minute Remaining, and follow Tariq Maqbool's story as it unfolds.

Nothing was off the table. Susan talks about the everyday realities most people never think about, from using the bathroom in the middle of the night with a cell partner a few feet away, to whether women in prison can get hold of makeup.
Then the conversation turns to the bigger questions. Does incarceration actually work? And what are the biggest misconceptions people have about life inside?
Honest, surprising and at times uncomfortable, this is prison life in Susan Brown's own words.
Thank you to everyone who sent in a question.

She says he beat her, raped her and stabbed her in the stomach, and that she fought back to save herself and her unborn child. He died. Susan waited on the curb for police, gave birth by emergency C section hours later, and was then charged with premeditated first degree murder. She has been serving life without the possibility of parole ever since.
After years of work by advocates and a public commutation hearing before the Michigan Parole Board, Susan's bid for clemency was denied.
In this episode, Susan joins me again to talk about how she has coped since hearing that news, what it took to keep going, and what happens now. Because the door is not closed. Susan gets to try again, and she is already preparing to do exactly that.
We also talk about the very polarising situation of a female prisoner whos death sentence was carried out and failed, twice.
