Speaker 1: Everyone. You've probably heard of Aaron Habil, my good friend
and the co host of Generation Why, but you may
not have heard about his other incredible true crime investigative podcast, Framed.
Much like true crime Bullshit, Framed is a deep dive
investigative podcast. Season one covered the case of Brian Carrick,
which is very similar to the Brian Schaeffer disappearance. In
season two, Aaron covered the brutal shooting deaths of nine
monks in their temple in Arizona, and season three, which
launches this week, looks into the murder of Saint Clair
County Community College student Scott Macklum, as well as the
trial of Frederick Freeman. In this long form podcast, Aaron
digs deep into forensic evidence and tries to answer the
many questions that remain in the controversial case, like is
there sufficient proof that Frederick Freeman murdered Scott Macklum, if
there are any doubts about his guilt, why does he
remain incarcerated and has gone through thousands of pages of
documents in his quest to find the truth? And now
you can deep dive with him. In season three of Framed,
out Now wherever you listen to podcasts. Here's a preview enjoy.
Justice is widely understood to be the concept of moral
fairness and the administration of law, where individuals are treated
impartially and receive what they deserve based on their actions.
But circumstances are not always as clear cut as we
would like, and the quest for justice can be a
slippery slope. The nineteen eighty six killing of Scott Macklum
and resulting trial would test the very limits of justice
as we know it. When a shotgun blast rang out
on a frigid November morning on the campus of Saint
Clair Community College in Port here On, Michigan, students within
earshot assumed it was a firecracker or a car backfiring,
or perhaps even a tire had blown out, But the
truth was that a young college student named Scott Macklum
had been pitilessly executed. Police settled quickly on a single suspect,
a brash young man who was leading a somewhat alternative lifestyle.
I am your host, Aaron, and this is Framed on
the season of Framed. We're going to look at the
murder of Scott Macklum and the focus by law enforcement
and the justice system on a suspect named Frederick Freeman,
now known as pemmaging KENSU. Research and writing for this
