Murder in Oregon: 2026 UPDATE- The Fight for Justice, Revisited

After nearly 40 years- including 29 spent behind bars- Frank Gable has officially been declared innocent of Michael Francke’s murder. It’s a stunning moment and a long-awaited measure of justice. But Michael’s murder remains unsolved. In this special update, Lauren Bright Pacheco is joined by journalist Phil Stanford and Michael’s brothers, Kevin and Pat, to revisit the case, reflect on Frank’s exoneration, and confront the question that still remains: What does justice for Michael look like now? Drawing on new revelations from Phil’s latest book, Who Killed Michael Francke- and How They Got Away With It, this powerful update returns to the case that, nearly four decades later, still demands answers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
