Heads up.
This episode contains strong language.
Last time on Beyond All Repair.
We, the jury, find the defendant, Sophia S.
Johnson, guilty.
Being pregnant with him while incarcerated truly saved my life.
No sentence would be strong enough for Sophia.
I picked up the phone, and Therese was excited, and I said, I won, didn't I?
She said, you won.
A person her height couldn't have done that.
It doesn't mean she wasn't involved.
I mean.
So I'm using this opportunity to just confess that I'm a little nervous.
It's autumn 2021.
I'm nervously, frantically recording a voice memo while I set up my actual audio equipment in the driveway of the person I'm about to talk to.
There are very different narratives about her, very different narratives about the woman I'd been talking to for six months at this point, always on video calls.
I knew her side of the story well, but I'd read and heard many other perspectives.
People who call her a manipulator, a mastermind, a murderer.
I hope that I'm not doing something stupid right now.
This was the day I'd meet Sophia Johnson in person for the first time.
