In this special episode of Crime Talk Vault, Scott sits down with Texas trial legend Dan Cogdell to talk about what really happens when the stakes are life, death, and reputation. From the Enron "sole survivor" acquittal to the Waco siege trial of Clive Doyle and the Ken Paxton impeachment defense, Cogdell has made a career winning cases everyone else thought were lost.

They break down how juries actually think, why "boring lawyers lose," war stories from the trenches (including the infamous cattle prod demo in front of a jury), and what it takes mentally to stand next to the most hated person in the room and say, "Not guilty."

If you care about real trial work—not TV law, but the ugly, brilliant reality—this one's for you.
