From the Vault - No one admits to a crime they didn't do

In 1996, 18-year-old Angie Dodge was brutally murdered in her Idaho Falls apartment. Police were desperate for answers — and soon turned their attention to a young man named Christopher Tapp.

What followed would become one of America’s most controversial wrongful conviction cases.

Despite no physical evidence linking him to the crime, Christopher Tapp was convicted after hours of intense police interrogation and a confession many believe was coerced. For more than two decades, Tapp maintained his innocence while serving time for a murder he said he did not commit.

But the story didn’t end there.

As DNA technology advanced and fresh eyes revisited the case, disturbing questions began to emerge about the investigation, the interrogation tactics used, and whether police had convicted the wrong man while Angie Dodge’s real killer remained free.

In this episode of Crime at Bedtime, we examine the tragic murder of Angie Dodge, the interrogation that changed Christopher Tapp’s life forever, and the long fight that would ultimately unravel one of Idaho’s most debated wrongful conviction cases.

This is the story of Christopher Tapp.
