Episode • Dec 31, 2019 • 1h 4m

This episode of Stumptown dealt with a felony drug charge against a minor for possession of prescription drugs who said she was framed by a group of entitled rich kids at a private school who wanted to see her get kicked off of the volleyball team.

Dex eventually found out that she was framed and by an unlikely source.

The Sleuths talk about some of the challenges facing high-schoolers to make good decisions and stay out of trouble while society and the schools are giving them more freedom.

Jamie said that somewhere between 80-90% of their cases have to do with infidelity. But unlike many of the dramatized TV versions of shows like cheaters or Stumptown most PI's don't normally get to see the confrontation. The client is presented with the facts and then it is their decision on what to do with the information.

Jamie shared a sequence of cheater stories from the Blackman Detective Services archive of real-life cases and how private investigation worked for their clients. They share multiple stories of wives who hired P.I.'s to find out what was going on with their husbands' erratic behavior.
