Saint Christopher studies the three men responsible for building the murder case against Charles Wakefield Jr.

The episode opens the night that police first arrested Wakefield. Wakefield talks about spending that night in a cell and in the interrogation room.

Listeners are then introduced to Jim Christopher and Mike Bridges, the two lead investigators on the case. Current and former law enforcement officials offer candid thoughts about the detectives and question the case they produced. Meanwhile, as Wakefield remembers his decades of fear, some of his advocates talk about the futility of trying to fight the system in Greenville, South Carolina.
