Synopsis
Citizen Sleuth follows Emily Nestor and her Mile Marker 181 podcast, as she conducts an amateur murder investigation into the death of Jaleayah Davis. The documentary examines the ethics of the true crime genre through Emily’s pursuits of her top suspects. With a growing audience of millions, Emily's podcast becomes a hit, but as she probes deeper into the case, she’s confronted with a new truth she struggles to tell her listeners. Told in real time over years, Citizen Sleuth chronicles the rise, fall, and redemption of a podcaster in the new media landscape.
