Based on real events, Almost Fiction is a Podcast where we try to imagine what it was like when some of the worst crimes occurred. Using facts, reports, and evidence, we attempt to reconstruct what the crime scenes might have looked like as the crimes were happening. So, join us each week as we peek behind the curtain at some of the worst scenes from some of the worst crimes ever committed.
I’m Chase Ellerman, and welcome to... Almost Fiction.

So, join us this week as we look into the dark mind of a man who’s first foray into murder was when he killed his own child.
Join us as we tell the story of William Lester Suff.

Sometimes though my thoughts and feelings do bleed through, but for the most part, I try to only stick to the story.
But, the more cases I cover, the more I research incidents and punishments, the more I find that the system seems to be broken.
This week we cover the case of Cecil Stephen Sutherland.
