DATELINE on NBC. The audio Podcast has attracted millions of listeners from around the world. Season One had the series, "Internal Affairs" reported and narrated by Josh Mankiewicz. As a huge fan of "Dateline." I think this podcast is one of Josh's best work.
"Internal Affairs" (6 Episodes) tells the story of a 3-year sexual fling between Ignacio and Shawna. They both are married with children. They also work for the police department at Greely, Colorado. Ignacio's wife Heather was gunned down in a parking lot with two direct shots to her head. It was the winter of 2007.
As I listened to this for a third time since 2022. This story is as old as time reaching back to the Biblical era. Infidelity turned into an obsession that destroyed marriages and families. The destruction had many victims and at the center of it is Shawna. She was charged with the murder of Heather.
As the truth hit the surface. Not all of that truth is revealed. This is what is intriguing and fascinating to those of us who love Murder and Mystery. The gun that Shawna used to shoot Heather was never found. Only shell casings next to the dead body. There was also no DNA evidence putting Shawna at the crime scene. It was a weak circumstantial case against her. No one will ever know the whole truth.
The backdrop of this story is surrounded by the Greely police department. It was wrought with numerous affairs by men and women employees. Shawna was the most vocal and revealing with hers.
If you haven't listened to this Podcast. I haven't given it all away. Check it out if you can.
