In this gripping episode of the Erased Podcast, we sit down with Eddie Gallagher, a former Navy SEAL whose life was upended by a wrongful conviction that nearly destroyed his career, his reputation, and his family. Accused of war crimes during the Battle for Mosul in 2017, Eddie faced a court-martial that captivated the nation. While he was acquitted of all charges except for posing with a deceased ISIS fighter—a charge stemming from a photo he deeply regrets—his journey through the military justice system revealed deep flaws and set off a firestorm of controversy.

In this raw and emotional conversation, Eddie opens up about the toll the trial took on him and his loved ones, the impact on his children, and the unwavering support of his wife, Andrea. He also shares his perspective on the blurred lines between right and wrong in modern warfare and the personal cost of standing up against a system that failed him.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the complexities of military justice, the resilience of the human spirit, and the untold stories of those who serve.
