A few months after being asked to be interviewed for a podcast centering on true crime, Undoing Evil's first episode went live last night (Aug. 13) featuring me and my first book, Murder in Wauwatosa: The Mysterious Death of Buddy Schumacher. That book tells the story of an 8-year-old boy... Continue Reading →
August 2020 Monday (Aug. 3) is my birthday. You don’t have to get me anything. It’s OK. I understand. You’re busy. The whole mask thing has you upside down and inside out. I’m not that important.
