Convergence: True Crime and Corruption in the Windy City

What happens when a touring musician leaves rock-and-roll behind to become a homicide prosecutor in one of America's most notoriously corrupt court systems?

In this episode of Rainy Day Rabbit Holes, Shea sits down with former Cook County homicide prosecutor and author Gregg Owen to discuss his remarkable journey from opening for legendary acts like The Doors and Janis Joplin to prosecuting murder cases in Chicago during the height of courtroom corruption.

Gregg shares stories from his upcoming true crime book Convergence, which follows a seemingly unwinnable double murder case involving missing evidence, witness intimidation, judicial corruption, and one of the largest corruption investigations in American history. Along the way, we explore Operation Greylord, Chicago in the 1970s, music, justice, Bigfoot, aliens, and what it takes to keep fighting when the odds are stacked against you.

If you love true crime, history, organized crime, courtroom drama, and fascinating life stories, this episode is for you.
