MURDER AT THE U Episode 1: Chillin’ with the Canes
30 for 30 Podcasts
In 2006, Bryan Pata – a football star at the University of Miami – was shot and killed outside his apartment. The death of a high-profile player from a major college football program was big news, but it didn’t lead to an arrest. But more than a decade later, the case found its way to a team of ESPN reporters. What they found was an exasperated family desperate for answers, a murder investigation that appeared to be cold (even though the police said it wasn’t), a legendary football program with a wild reputation in a tailspin, and a side to Bryan he didn’t want people to know about.
