Undisclosed is a podcast about wrongful convictions in the United States. It is created and hosted by Rabia Chaudry, Susan Simpson, and Colin Miller.[1] The podcast started by investigating the conviction of Adnan Syed for the killing of Hae Min Lee, which had previously been the focus of the first season of the podcast Serial.[2]
Season two focused on the Georgia conviction of Joey Watkins for the murder of Isaac Dawkins, which, according to Undisclosed, was wrongful. According to the podcast, Watkins' cell phone records proved that he could not have committed the murder, because they showed that when the murder occurred, he was indeed on the divided highway where it happened, but going in the opposite direction, with a location constrained by the cell tower pinged by a call he made. According to the podcast, turning around before firing the shot would have required him to drive impossibly fast along the busy highway, recognize Dawkins' vehicle going the opposite direction in the dark, then turn around before he or a passenger fired the fatal shot.[3][4]
The podcast released its final episode in March 2022.[5]
Undisclosed LLC v. State
[edit]Undisclosed wanted to copy the tapes from the Watkins trial, which they wanted to play so that listeners could hear Watkins saying he was innocent. The court initially agreed, then changed its mind before they actually copied the tapes. This led to further litigation, with the Georgia Supreme Court eventually ruling that the state did not have to allow Undisclosed to copy the tapes.[6]
Seasons
[edit]Undisclosed has covered many cases over twenty-four seasons, but there are occasionally bonus episodes, addendum episodes, updates, or episodes between seasons.
