Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit’s history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, an ...

The people of Stillwater, Oklahoma, have had enough.
Hundreds gathered outside the Payne County Courthouse demanding accountability after Judge Susan Worthington allowed a violent sexual predator to avoid prison.
Eighteen-year-old Jesse Butler, charged with eleven felonies including rape, attempted rape, and strangulation, received no prison time under Oklahoma’s Youthful Offender Law.
Despite partial video evidence and one victim requiring neck surgery, Judge Worthington ruled that Butler qualified for rehabilitation instead of incarceration. The potential 78-year sentence vanished, replaced by a single year of supervision, therapy, and a curfew.
The decision ignited outrage across the state.
Tribal victim services, survivors, parents, and students rallied together on the courthouse steps, chanting for justice and calling for Judge Worthington’s removal.
State lawmakers labeled the ruling “unacceptable” and vowed to review how the system failed so catastrophically.
In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, Tony breaks down the story that’s shaken Stillwater to its core — how a judge’s compassion turned into negligence, how leniency for violent predators endangers every community, and why the public’s outrage might finally force real reform.
We’ll examine the judicial system that let this happen, the decades-long ties that bind small-town power networks, and the growing call to close legal loopholes that allow violent offenders to hide behind “youthful offender” status.
This isn’t about politics. It’s about safety.
Because when the system starts protecting predators instead of people, it’s not justice anymore — it’s failure in a robe.
