True Crime Tuesday | Wrongfully Convicted, Exonerated and Then Murdered: The Unsolved Case of Christopher Tapp

Love and Murder: Heartbreak to Homicide

In this gripping true crime Tuesday episode of Love and Murder: Heartbreak to Homicide, Ky investigates the tragic and complex case of Christopher Tapp, a man wrongfully convicted of the 1996 rape and murder of his friend Angie Dodge. After spending 20 years in prison, Christopher was exonerated thanks to new DNA technology, only to be murdered himself shortly after his release.
Ky walks us through the harrowing details of Christopher's coerced confession, the relentless interrogations, and the eventual breakthrough that led to his freedom. The episode also covers the shocking discovery of the real perpetrator, 55-year-old Brian Dripps, who lived across the street from Angie at the time of her murder. Dripps' belated confession and subsequent trial add another layer of tragedy to this already heart-wrenching story.
As Ky delves into the emotional impact on Angie's family and the community, the episode raises questions about justice, accountability, and the devastating consequences of wrongful convictions. The case takes an even darker turn with the mysterious circumstances surrounding Christopher's own death, ruled a homicide, leaving listeners to ponder who might be responsible.
