Made by the CBS News team behind the television program, the podcast combines reported investigations with conversations about how those stories came together. Anne-Marie Green hosts its Post Mortem series, bringing correspondents and producers back to the evidence, missed leads and decisions behind their reporting.
This week's releases include a two-part return to the 2014 disappearance of college student Hannah Graham. The episodes follow the search and the surveillance footage, then examine how DNA evidence connected investigations across Virginia.
Another pairing, "The Corn Rake Witness" and its Post Mortem follow-up, revisits Todd Mullis's conviction for killing his wife, Amy. Green and correspondent Erin Moriarty discuss an interview challenging that conviction, giving the reported episode a companion conversation about the case.
The video accompanying this story is an episode of Case by Case, another strand of the podcast. Natalie Morales and CBS News correspondent Shanelle Kaul examine Naresh Bhatt's testimony in his murder trial concerning his wife, Mamta Kafle Bhatt. Bhatt testified that he found her dead and subsequently disposed of her body.
Morales and Kaul work through digital records, surveillance footage and physical evidence presented in court. They also return to Mamta's life: near the end, a former roommate remembers their time living together and Mamta studying for her nursing licensing exam.
