Trigger Warning:
This episode contains discussion of suicide, death, child abuse, and investigative failures. Listener discretion is advised.

Forensic pathologist Dr. Byron Collins returns with a preliminary report into the death of Eden Westbrook — and raises serious concerns. Despite decades of experience, Dr. Collins says he’s never seen a case where critical evidence like autopsy photos has been withheld to this extent.

In this episode, he questions the original cause of death, highlights unusual injuries, and outlines key procedures that were missed — including the failure to take genital swabs or thoroughly examine the scene.

Working pro bono for the Westbrook family, Dr. Collins makes one thing clear: this case needs to be reinvestigated.
