In an earlier episode of Murderish, I told the story of Justin Hopper’s murder.  Justin Hopper was a high school student who was gunned down in cold blood by two of his classmates in a Canyon near Redlands California in the 1990s.  In this follow-up episode, I speak with another friend of Justin’s who gives additional perspective on Justin and Ryan Bangs, who was convicted in connection with Justin’s murder (along with co-defendant, Aaron Mercado).  Justin’s friend, who requested to remain anonymous, was in contact with Justin in the days leading up to his murder, and she also attended part of the trial that resulted after Justin was killed.  If you haven’t listened to the Justin Hopper Murder episode, please do so before listening to this follow-up as it may not make much sense otherwise.       MURDERISH now has a Patreon page!  If you’d like to support the Podcast, and get special perks in exchange, click here: www.patreon.com/murderish    Facebook: MURDERISH Podcast https://www.facebook.com/groups/540494462961219/         Twitter: @MurderishPod https://twitter.com/MurderishPodInstagram: MurderishPodcast Send comments and inquiries to: MurderishJami@gmail.com Interested in advertising your company, or podcast, on MURDERISH?  Shoot me an email, or click here for more info: https://www.advertisecast.com/MURDERISH MURDERISH merch now available at two online stores (t-shirts, mugs & other cool stuff): Threadless online store https://murderishpodcast.threadless.com/ TeePublic online store http://tee.pub/lic/-c0zMWCpN-I Podcast promos:  (subscribe, rate & review)!This episode was Edited, Mixed and Mastered by John Bukenas of Audio Editing Solutions www.audioeditingsolutions.com.  Need a great audio editor?  John B. is your guy!Intro/Outro music in this episode created by: Nico Vettese of We Talk of Dreams.  Contact Nico at nico@wetalkofdreams.com or www.wetalkofdreams.com if you’re interested in working with him to create music for your podcast …or any project!Remember, listening to this podcast doesn’t make you a murderer …it just means you’re murder-ish!
