Listen Lauren Mc Cluskey s Murder ( ESPN) 2023

In 2018, University of Utah track and field athlete Lauren McCluskey repeatedly sought help as her exboyfriend stalked and extorted her, but the people and the institutions responsible for listening to her and protecting her failed at every turn. LISTEN is an investigative documentary from ESPN exploring Laurens life, murder, and her parents quest for answers. Journalists examine the steps that could have prevented her death by using hours of material never seen or heard by the public including surveillance video, 911 calls and police interview and dispatch recordings. Viewers get an intimate look into the last weeks of Laurens life as she pleaded for and sought help over and over. Viewers also learn what has transpired with her case since her death at age 21 on Oct. 22, 2018. Allegations of police misconduct roiled the state and led to legislative change. The McCluskey family settled a lawsuit for 13. 5 million, but revelations of individual and institutional failure continued.
