A respected doctor becomes a deadly predator in this shocking true crime case that exposes the darkest side of the opioid epidemic.

When young Ellie Harris died of an overdose in 2002, her prescription bottles all led back to one man: Dr. Randeep Mann. Despite her history of addiction that her family explicitly shared with him, Mann prescribed dangerous combinations of opioids that ultimately claimed her life. But Ellie was just the beginning.

As more bodies piled up in the small town of Russellville, Arkansas, a disturbing pattern emerged. Dr. Mann wasn't just overprescribing - he was exploiting vulnerable patients like teenager Shelly Green, who reported trading sexual favors for pills in his office after hours. Despite mounting evidence, medical and legal systems repeatedly failed to stop him, with overdose deaths temporarily dropping when his license was suspended only to surge again when reinstated.

What does it take to stop a predator in a white coat when the very systems designed to protect patients repeatedly fail to act? Join us for this disturbing journey through medicine's darkest corridors.

The wellness industry is filled with charismatic figures promising natural cures and easy fixes, but what happens when these health gurus practice what they preach? Gary Null found out the hard way when his own supplement nearly killed him.

This episode examines how Null's story reveals a broken system where supplement manufacturers operate with minimal oversight, and charismatic figures can build fortunes selling both fear and supposed solutions. We'll explore why his pseudoscientific claims persist despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary and provide resources for evaluating supplement safety.
