Witness Chris Albert from the Karen Read Case Joins the FOURensic Room.
Plus- A few other tidbits I want to share.
Oh hey there…
It’s me just sliding into your inbox on a Thursday.
How very Tuesday Gazette of me.😬
Anyhoo —
I want to share a few updates in case you missed them.
The FOURensic Room YouTube channel that I am cohosting just did an interview with witness Chris Albert (Father of Colin Albert). If you missed it, you can find it right HERE. We chat with Chris about John O’Keefe, the abuse the media and public have caused his family, including his young adult son, Colin. And of course we dispel some absurd conspiracy speculations and misinformation that has echoed across the internet.
The FOURensic Room has chosen not to monetize the show with the Youtube platform at this point. We want it to be a place that provides free info with no pressure to financially aim for ‘more clicks’ and ‘more engagement’.
Truth is the only thing that matters here because it honors the innocent.For those who do want to help financially, we did add a membership tier here on Patreon, which is a way for us to pay for any overhead costs, and then donate the remaining funds to DefendingtheTruth.org
The membership will give you access to a private chat space to engage with one another, as well as with us -- Julie Carpenter, Tuesday Gazette, Ginny Jamz, Kerry Lama, and Spicy Lydia. If you have any suggestions on more benefits that you would like to see, let us know. We are new to this whole rodeo, so we ask for some grace as we figure it out!:)
Other ways to impact the true crime sphere in a good way…
Advocating that youtubers/tiktokers/etc. report information regarding true crime tragedies with verified information. Always correct anything that was reported incorrectly.
Consume carefully, avoiding social media spaces that churn content over so rapidly and refuse to backup their sources. Some of the most likable personalities — and even those with high credentials — can still abuse public trust by reporting inaccurate and misleading information. It’s not an education problem, it’s an integrity problem.
In fact —
I suggest being very picky about the lawtuber(s) you lean on for info. Some are out there to play defense attorney to the public and persuade you with their opinion and ‘help’ their fellow attorneys spread PR propaganda to the public. While others actually care about providing un-sensationalized analysis, legal insight, and healthy reasoning.
A few lawtubers I’ve found to be fair-minded and report on trials/legal matters with great integrity are…
Attorney-hosted podcasts I love:
Journalist on X who is incredibly due diligent is:
BRIAN ENTIN (News Nation Correspondent)
Let me know in the comments if you guys have any other suggested leaders in the true crime community that are reliable sources for healthy information sharing & discourse.
HappyNew Year and thank you for your reporting Tuesday and crew! :)
