About this episode
<p>Blayne Alexander sits down with Josh Mankiewicz to talk about his episode “11 Minutes.” Michael Holton calls police after his son Madison throws a house party. Just 11 minutes after a deputy leaves the house, another 911 call is placed. Madison’s parents have been shot. The 17-year-old is eventually charged with their murders. But as the case unfolds, serious questions are raised about the evidence that led to the teen’s arrest. Blayne and Josh dig into how the investigation shifted, the key roles Madison’s uncles played in challenging the charges, and what ultimately led to the case being dropped. Josh also shares a podcast-exclusive clip from his interview with Madison Holton.</p><p>Have a question for Talking Dateline?
