11 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 5 years ago - ★★★★★ - 87 ratings

Skeptical is an investigative podcast covering the murder of Michael Bernos in July of 1994. One of the men convicted of this crime- his adoptive son, Daniel- has claimed his innocence for the past 22 years. Is he telling the truth?

We're hunting for the answer by reviewing case files, speaking to witnesses, and taking a unbiased look at the evidence. Is he truly guilty? Or is this a case of extreme injustice?
