[Florida Files] Bone Valley: Leo Schofield's Fight  
Podcast: Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime Podcast
Published On: Thu Apr 17 2025
Description: In 1987, Michelle Schofield was brutally murdered in Lakeland, Florida. Her husband, Leo Schofield, was convicted of the crime and sentenced to life in prison. But Leo has always maintained his innocence—and a groundbreaking podcast investigation uncovered evidence that suggests he may be right. The Bone Valley podcast, created by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Gilbert King, exposed shocking details that were never presented at trial: DNA evidence pointing to another suspect, witness testimony that was ignored, and a confession from a serial killer that was dismissed. Despite this new evidence, Leo remains in prison. This episode features an interview with Gilbert King about his investigation, the power of storytelling in exposing wrongful convictions, and Leo's ongoing fight for freedom. This is a story about justice delayed, evidence ignored, and one man's refusal to give up hope. Listen to the full Bone Valley podcast for the complete investigation.
