In the previous episode, we learned of the brutal November 5, 1986, murder of well-regarded St. Clair Community College student Scott Macklem. The Port Huron Police Department, who began their investigation moments after their arrival at the campus parking lot, interviewed several people present at the crime scene that morning. Evidence was scant, and pressure to solve the crime was enormous, as the victim was the son of a beloved and politically influential local family. 1986 was also an election year, further adding to the burden of obtaining justice. Additionally, Scott left behind a young fiancée who was pregnant with the couple's first child. The stakes could not be higher, and law enforcement was determined that the young man's killer would swiftly be brought to justice.

There’s a story you think you know-the one that made the headlines, the official version, the tidy conclusion. FRAMED: An Investigative Story isn’t about retelling that story. Instead, this series digs into the layers beneath, where context, motive, and perspective reshape everything. Hosted by the team at Framed Podcast, each season is a deep examination of a single case or historical event, approached with the patience of a historian and the scrutiny of a detective. You’ll hear archival tape, original interviews, and painstaking analysis, all aimed at untangling how narratives are constructed. The show operates on a core idea: every side has its facts, but the picture that emerges depends entirely on how those facts are framed. It’s for anyone who senses that the full truth is often hiding in the margins, in the overlooked detail or the contested testimony. By blending true crime’s urgency with history’s broader view, this podcast doesn’t just present a mystery-it interrogates the very process of how we decide what’s true. Tune in for a thoughtful, unsettling, and meticulously researched journey that challenges the first draft of history.
