I'm reposting this interview from a few years ago with former Benton Harbor Police Officer, Andrew Collins. Andrew was caught planting evidence and stealing on the job, and has been trying to make things right since he got out of prison. This is a good look into the culture in the Benton Harbor Police Department in the early 2000's, around the time of Jodi's arrest.

Bob breaks down Demorrio Lowes victimology. We learn about the armed robbery attempt that he escaped days before his murder, his movements and who he was with on the night of, as as well as the details and timing of the attack that tragically took his life. Bob also shares and addresses his correspondences with Benton Harbor Public Safety Director Dan McGinnis.
