If you\u2019re looking for a light-hearted episode that\u2019ll leave you feeling warm and tingly, this ain\u2019t it.
\n
\nBrandi starts us off with the story of a toddler whose body was discovered in the woods of Kansas City. For years, the unidentified girl was known as \u201cPrecious Doe.\u201d Police said they were dedicated to the case, but it took outside intervention and relentless advocacy by the girl\u2019s great grandfather for her to be identified.
\n
\nThen Kristin tells us about the infuriating fight for justice following the murder of Jennifer Laude. Jennifer was a trans Filipina woman who was killed by an American Marine named Joseph Scott Pemberton. Jennifer\u2019s murder didn\u2019t just outrage LGBT+ advocates \u2013 it outraged anyone who was sick of American servicepeople getting special treatment in the Philippines.\xa0

\nKristin (the tattooed one who is engaged to David) ends this episode with a bang.
\n
\nAnd now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.
