Great Podcast
This is by far one of the best podcasts I’ve listened to and I’ve listened to a bunch of them. Gilbert and Kelsey show such compassion to everyone involved. They are beautiful people! I’m so glad Leo is finally out and enjoying his family! He is a beautiful soul!!! Victoria Avalon should be ashamed of herself! She did the justice system a disservice!Looking for more from Gilbert and Kelsey!
Hands down the best podcast out there!
I can’t even put into words what a beautiful and captivating podcast this is! It’s just phenomenal. From Gilbert’s & his teams work to get Leo out of jail and now hearing Jeremy and his son’s story of reconnecting. I have shed tears of joy and sorrow many times. If I could only recommend one podcast for the rest of my life, it would be this one!
Absolute MUST LISTEN
I listen to a good deal of true crime podcasts, both short single episode stories and long form like this one and I don’t think I’ve ever heard one that moved me emotionally the way this one has. It sounds like there are many people who’ve been pulled in and emotionally invested in this story just as I have. And it may be even more so now with the second season. Listen! It’s WORTH IT.
I’d give this podcast 10 stars
How does this podcast just keep getting better? Gilbert King, you are an incredible writer and human being. Thank you for sharing this story with us.
Full Circle
Once in while a rare incredible individuals (Mr. King, Leo,etc) can bring together people one by one out of the most traumatic and unusual circumstances. The past can’t be changed however the future is yet to be written. While some souls may be too far gone, it’s exciting to see “the good parts” of a soul who still yearn to have their human needs met. And the rest we pour out to God to “lead us, guide us,walk beside us, and help us find the way”. In the end he’ll make things right.
Bone Valley
Murder, lies, conspiracy, redemption, love & forgiveness. This is one of the most powerful and devastatingly beautiful stories. I can't find the words for it all. There's so much in these 2 seasons all wrapped up in so many emotions. I have cried so many tears from the sheer rawness of it all. But, the redemption...The love...The forgiveness...it's breathtaking. Some of it will anger and infuriate you, frustrate you and stress you out. And some will make you weep. But, in the end, you're given the gift of knowing what grace truly means.
Amazing
I didn’t start Season 2 right away assuming it couldn’t be as compelling as Season 1. But here I am feeling empathy and rooting for Jeremy. The killer. The reason Leo was in prison. This is so well done.
Positively Outstanding!!!!!
This is quite possibly the BEST podcast I’ve listened to and I have listened to A LOT of them!! If you’re looking for something to binge, this is perfect. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Overwhelming
This podcast had me so emotionally involved. I felt the emotions. I hurt listening to the courts deny an innocent man. It breaks my heart the judicial system failed in doing their job. It’s so I fail to hear how long Leo spent in jail. It should have been that way. But then I hear how positive he was and is and how he kept pushing forward. I’m sure he had some awful days but the fact that he had hope and just purposed in his heart to Love Jesus and continue to be the best he could be amazed me! On the last episode when he got to the Noah house and the lady said “Look at God” I got tears in my eyes and chills went all over me. I could feel the spirit and I know from the recording everyone else in that moment did too! Thank you so much for producing this podcast. I do pray and look forward to the day that Leo is exonerated!! 🙌🏼
Must Listen!
This series has been phenomenal! The final episode of season two was so emotional. It reminds you of the beauty and power of humanity and redemption.
12/10 Recommend
Unexpected and absolutely heart-wrenching. I never thought I’d feel this way about prison inmates I’ve never met, but Bone Valley changed that. Jeremy never stood a chance—his horrific childhood and desperate need for mental help broke my heart. I found myself crying and genuinely grieving the loss of someone I never knew. And then there’s Leo. Not only did he lose his wife—he lost his entire life to a wrongful conviction. It’s devastating to see how prosecutors and DAs cared more about protecting their image than admitting they got it so tragically wrong. He is paying the price for their pride. Gilbert and Kelsey did a remarkable job bringing light to such a painful miscarriage of justice. Their storytelling was compassionate, thorough, and deeply moving. This podcast is more than just true crime—it’s a powerful plea for humanity, truth, and reform. Lord, help our judicial system.
Meri West
Outstanding podcast that, in so many ways, restores my belief that truth, decency, and good always prevail. In terms of Jeremy Scott, while there can be no doubt that his wrongs were heinous, they have to be properly judged in context with his upbringing and psychological factors. Please, please let Meri West know that I am so happy that people like her exist. She is an amazing soul.
Amazing podcast
I have hope like adnan Leo will soon be home in Jesus name.. It will happen. Leo pls hold on God has a miracle coming!!! This podcast touched my soul and I would recommend we spread it around so the right people will hear this!! Justice will be served!! Hold on Leo. I love this new season! I am crying and crying
Meri
This episode (season 2, episode 5) stopped me in all I was doing. What an incredible human Meri is. And Leo & Kelsey, the narration and music adds depth to this emotional episode. Thank you. We need more of these moments while the world is swirling around us.
Such great reporting
Really loving the second season of Bone Valley! The staff shows incredible tenacity and I’m loving the storytelling.
???
Why are you glossing over the fact that Leo would hit Michelle??? Isn’t that true ?
Excellent
This series is excellent and beyond heartbreaking and maddening. Absolutely heartbreaking to see how poor police/prosecutor/judges/system can DESTROY lives.
Incredible story telling
I don’t think I’ve ever been so moved by a podcast. The journalists did an incredible job telling an unbelievably painful story. And the corruption by the state of Florida…..unreal. My heart goes out to Leo and his family for a lifetime of injustice.
EXCEPTIONAL!!
This was hands-down the best story I’ve listened to. And I have listened to many. I never once got bored. Never once thought it was just too redundant. I actually anticipated every next piece. I didn’t sleep much and focused solely on this story for hours upon hours until it was completely listened to. Thank you so much for strongly opening peoples eyes to the “Justice System” here in the United States. How is this anything but horribly wrong to have someone CONFESS yet because the department that put the wrong man in prison doesn’t want to be embarrassed or admit they were wrong WHILE RUINING SO MANY LIVES!!! Every single person in the sheriffs department or police department that had a hand in situations like this should be brought to their own justice. Without a doubt. When will they learn about accountability? They are the professionals? Who people are supposed to trust, respect and admire? Not these days. Very sad indeed. Again, WELL DONE. YOU NAILED IT🤍🤍🤍 ~ArA oWeNs, MiSsOuLa, Mt
Great reporting but theme music is off
This was some thorough investigative journalism and a well made podcast, but the theme music did not match the topic and the intensity of the script. The theme song, however, was awesome.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is as good as it gets.
Tear jerker
I listen to soooo much true crime and this podcast is just so well done. It brought out raw emotion in me and gave me a different view of what humanity can be. Who knew I could have empathy for a serial killer?
Must listen. One of the best
This podcast was one of, if not the best ever listened to. Great storytelling. Gripping content. Emotional and engaging. Objective to the point possible. Traumatic story. You have to listen to the entire series. Great job Gilbert and Kelcey. Feels like we know you both and the characters of focus.
Lies, truth and everything in between...
Wow. I have never listened to anything as powerful as this story. I cried. I smiled. I laughed. I found myself, numerous times, standing still in the middle of my living room with ear pods in, covered in chills, overwhelmed with emotion and sometimes pure and utter SHOCK. The arrogance displayed from all ends of the Florida justice system will leave you floored. Their egos left me baffled and lead to unethical behaviors that cannot go ignored. King and his team do a phenomenal job…from research, building lasting relationships to telling this true story from the past into real time, well done. Thank you to every person that brought this story to life in the real world. And to Leo…thank you for never letting the system trick you into settling. For never wavering on the facts and standing your ground. You will hold a special place in my heart for the rest of my life, and I’m sure that is the same for many in this world. Thank you Leo.
