Season 3 Now Available
Where crime, culture, and justice collide
STRANGELAND is a investigative series from audiochuck that reexamines cases in immigrant neighborhoods.
Hosted by investigative journalist Ben Adair and Cambodian-American podcaster Mayly Tao, Season Three explores the murder of Haing Ngor in LA’s Chinatown. As a genocide survivor, political activist, and Hollywood star, Ngor’s death shook the Cambodian community and left many feeling uncertain when an unexpected conviction was secured. Ben and Mayly re-investigate the LAPD case and trace Haing Ngor’s journey from survivor to victim to try to uncover the truth. Was the LAPD’s arrest and subsequent convictions justice, or could the city’s culture of policing at the time have tainted the investigation causing justice to be lost in translation?
