  • Meanwhile in Mankato (3): The Trial That Collided with Miranda
    Nov 20 2025
    Episode 3 follows Brian Lee Hendrickson’s case through late 1965 and 1966, as court procedures, psychiatric evaluations, and a Minnesota trial unfold under the state’s Youth Conservation Commission. At the same time, a new Supreme Court ruling on Miranda rights reshapes the very laws surrounding confession and sentencing. We meet Hendrickson’s brothers, Mark and Gary, whose memories of that era reveal a family story caught between denial and discovery, and we open a parallel thread on Michelle’s early life — the beginnings of a second tragedy yet to come. Through careful investigative journalism, Dakota Spotlight continues this true crime podcast journey through Minnesota’s justice system, where one decision inside a courtroom still echoes six decades later. Meanwhile in Mankato was written, researched, edited, and produced by James Wolner. Additional research assistance by Mari Zoerb Hansen.

Incredible storytelling! The host's (James) sincerity & heart is evident throughout each season of the podcast. I was in awe of his patience when questioning a particular mealy mouthed law enforcement representative in the Barbara Cotton case. He remained calm, kind but persistent in his questioning. James is incredibly respectful in his interviews with friends and famimy members on all sides of a story. Very responsible reporting in my opinion.

Incredible storytelling!
