Description

On “Banfield,” we’re on manhunt watch in two states, Tennessee and Montana, and both involve quadruple murder suspects. Sean "Diddy" Combs is denied bail, and Gina Huynh, formerly known as Victim 3, writes a letter to the judge on behalf of Diddy, even though she did an interview in 2019 saying quite the opposite. Then, new documents in the Idaho college killings case drop from Pullman, Washington, police. We talk to Pullman police chief Gary Jenkins to discuss his emails with Bryan Kohberger.
