2026 Evidential Hearing Report and Review by Jamie

March 2026 Evidentiary Hearings: March Report #2752

SEASON 3 | Episode 60.0

An evidentiary hearing is a formal court proceeding where a judge reviews evidence and hears witness testimony to resolve specific factual disputes or determine the admissibility of evidence.

Similar to a "mini-trial," the 2026 evidentiary hearing focuses on particular issues—such as suppressing or concealing evidence, etc... — rather than the entire case.

Jamie Folk reports in this mini solo episode.

SEASON 3 | Episode 58.0

The new RIGGEDLabs Podcast episode this week brings new development with expert perspectives from the hosts.

We last left off discussing how a group of defendants from Massachusetts Middlesex County and Suffolk County consolidated their cases and, after years of their attorneys pouring through tens of thousands of pages of discovery, are finally going to get their day in court. The evidentiary hearing date is fast approaching and is expected to take at least two to three weeks in March – next month.

Currently, all of the witnesses have been served and the Court is now deliberating whether or not to allow various witnesses’ motions to quash, so that they would not have to testify. Of note, the director of the lab, Dr. Linda Han, the head of the chemistry department, Julianne Nassif, and the lab’s top supervisor are all now claiming that they have a 5th Amendment right not to testify; meaning they do not want to testify because their answers could—to this day—subject them to criminal prosecution.

In this short and solo episode, RIGGEDLabs Podcast Host, Jamie Folk, announces RIGGEDLabs the membership options on Patreon.

We've come a long way since launching RIGGEDLabs Podcast back in 2020, diving deep into the Massachusetts drug lab scandals that shattered lives and exposed systemic failures in the US criminal justice system. From the shocking revelations about Annie Dookhan at the Hinton Lab, to the Amherst Lab issues, and the broader implications across state police crime labs—we've uncovered stories that demand public attention.

And now, with RIGGEDLabs Season 3 underway, we're expanding our lens to drug lab scandals nationwide, starting with cases like the San Francisco OCME analyst Justin Volk, the earlier Deborah Madden scandal, the Braintree Police Department evidence room scandal and the case of George Hunter White.

This work isn't easy. Investigative journalism, interviewing experts, obtaining documents, and producing high-quality episodes takes time, resources, energy, and unwavering commitment. That's why we're thrilled to announce that RIGGEDLabs is now on Patreon!
