Court Junkie

by PodcastOne

Imagine being wrongfully convicted for a crime you didn't commit, or imagine your child's killer is still on the loose even though there's enough evidence for an arrest. I want to help shine light on the injustices of our judicial system. I delve into court documents, attend trials, and interview those close to the case to help me tell their stories.

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I’m not one to write a review unless I am truly committed, and with Jillian I am just that. Every single one of her episodes are well thought out, and delivered. She doesn’t miss! I huge fan of everything she has and continues to put out. Keep up the amazing work!

wiffenhouse · Oct 2024

I listened to your podcast about my grandmother and thought you did a great job! I sent it to the 2 detectives and they also liked it. It’s something no one should have to go through but your podcast gave me some peace knowing the outcome was guilty! Thank you!!

I'mgonnawin · Sep 2024

Presents the cases as they happened. I enjoy listening to Jillian. The cases presented are always interesting and have a broad net of topics.

Hinaea113 · Jun 2024

My favorite true crime show. Smart, insightful, detailed without being gratuitous. Week after week episodes have maintained their quality. They also manage to find lesser known cases and the ones we think we know about are covered from the legal perspective.

eg portland · Jun 2024

This used to be my favorite podcast. I couldn’t wait until a new episode release was released. However, it has gone downhill. The cases covered are ones that are frequently in the media and have been extensively covered. You are releasing episodes 3 months after the case and there are already 12 other podcasts about the case. Please start looking for cases that are not well known.
