Should Kentucky mom ERICA LAWSON face the death penalty? Plus an update on missing mom's VERONICA BUTLER AND JILIAN KELLEY

The Outlier Podcast

Apr 15 2024 • 37 mins

Arrests have been made in the case of missing Kansas mothers, VERONICA BUTLER and JILIAN KELLEY. Bodies have also been recovered in Texas County, Oklahoma.


Plus, Kentucky mom ERICA LAWSON is currently facing the death penalty for her involvement in the death (and alleged s*xual abuse) of her 17-month-old, sweet baby ELENA HEMBREE, who tragically passed in July of 2023. If any of the allegations cited by the Arkansas Justice Project are true, this could be the most horrific case we've ever covered.
