Who Killed My Mother?

Just getting a call that someone you love has died brings grief and profound impact. But what if the second call is from a police officer theorizing that your uncle, your mother's brother, has killed her? This stark and terrifying day sent Kory Marie on a quest not only to navigate her own grief, but to try to discover what had happened. And then, it became clear over time that there were aspects of her mother's life and death she would never truly know for sure. With an inquisitive mind geared to finding answers and an ability developed over a lifetime to investigate her own feelings, she set out on a path of discovery, weaving her mother's story with her own. Ultimately, this would evolve into a podcast, Why Killed My Mother, that blends her experience with what she discovered researching her mother and her family, trauma, and what we must accept as mystery.
