True Crime · CNN Podcasts
by CNN Podcasts
CNN Presents is the home for powerful, narrative-driven audio storytelling, featuring in-depth reporting from CNN journalists. Leading off this feed: Civilian or Spy. When a Russian-born American citizen named Ilya Beloozerov is gunned down by the FBI in 2024, the authorities refuse to say why they’d killed him. CNN’s Isabelle Chapman embarks on a sprawling investigation that takes her from the Mississippi parking lot where he died to Washington, D.C. to unravel the mystery: Why did Ilya abruptly leave his family and his job and head for the border with laptops and cash? Why is there still no official explanation of his death? And maybe most importantly: Was Ilya a spy? Also in this feed: Tortured Justice with Omar Jimenez, Persuadable with Donie O’Sullivan and All Over the Map with John King.

What an amazing evaluation to help those of us trying to understand why a loved one went down the hole or in a cult. Please continue this series helping all of us trying to "make it out, only way is through".
I have personally been the victim of conspiratorial beliefs at times. I have also watched others fall over the event horizon of the rabbit hole and I wish I’d been able to hear something like this podcast. I believe it is lifeline, a rope to pull ourselves out of some of the beliefs that have the potential to hijack our minds and hearts. Thank you for this reporting Donie.
I’m a huge fan of Mr. King on CNN, love the magic wall. But was thrilled to learn he had a podcast based on his On the Map reports . He’s a true reporter with no bias, he just demands honesty from his subjects - regular Americans of all stripes . Just wish there were more episodes!
I am a very liberal, but not progressive, democrat. While I most agreed with the gentleman interviewed, the woman, Linda I think, made me really think about how some Republicans feel. How they do struggle with their decision about who to vote for and how seriously they take it. As I tend to be so biased, this did make me stop and think. John King, I always enjoy hearing your take on things and I am very glad you are doing this podcast. I will listen again next Monday. So glad this popped up on my Instagram feed.
