Cole Goldberg on Locked In with Ian Bick

What the conversation covers
- Cole's account of the day he was accused
- Nearly four years of waiting for his day in court
- Why he turned down a plea deal and chose to go to trial
- The verdict: not guilty on all counts
- Life after the acquittal
Why this conversation matters
Cole's case was decided in a courtroom, but it was argued in public first. Headlines and comment sections reached their own conclusions years before any evidence was tested. That gap between public perception and legal reality is why Cole now speaks about trial by media, due process and the presumption of innocence.
