The Murder of Victoria Cushman (Rhode Island)
About this episode
The episode explores the murder of Victoria Cushman and the complexities of the investigation that followed.
Victoria Cushman was just 29 years old when she was found murdered inside her Warwick, Rhode Island apartment, just steps from the sporting goods store where she worked. For years, her family waited for answers and eventually, the case seemed to have them: a suspect known to the case from day one, who investigators said had motive to end Vickie’s life. The evidence was circumstantial, but it was compelling. A secret relationship. Conflicting statements. A timeline that seemed to close in around one man. To a jury, the pieces fit. But fitting isn’t the same as true. Years later, the story everyone thought they trusted cracked wide open.
