About this episode

This episode was originally released in October 2019, and is one of sixteen episodes from the archives we'll be bringing you every Thursday, now through end of year... for good reason! ;) We highly recommend you listen to each episode between now and end of 2024, and follow us on Instagram @crimejunkiepodcast so you're the first to know what's coming next! <3

When Jennifer Levin is found murdered in Central Park in 1986, one of her private school friends is arrested for the crime. This catalyzes bitter debates about sex, privilege, legal ethics, parental responsibility, socioeconomics, victim's rights, and so much more. Before there was the OJ Simpson trial, there was the Preppy Murder.
