What Cries Out
We are a monthly Mother-Daughter True Crime Podcast. Each month we will focus on a case that cries out to us. What brings an individual to the precipice of darkness? Can we make sense of societies darkest edges? Sometimes we share generationally opposing views or push our own minds to that edge, but we do this to bring souls into remembrance all while bringing a social issue to light... This is What Cries Out.
What Cries Out
The Peacemakers: Rais Bhuiyan and Mark Stroman
This is the story of two men. One man chose the path of light......the other man, chose the path of darkness. These two men should never have met. They did not run in the same circle, nor did they have similar backgrounds. The paths they chose were different. One fateful day, Rais Bhuiyan and Mark Stroman’s paths would cross, in a meeting that would result in catastrophic consequences. It would change both of these men’s lives forever.
But this is not your typical true crime story. It’s one that would unravel a fabric woven from devastating hate and rage to one resewn with untold forgiveness and compassion....and finally, redemption. This is Episode 37- The Peacemakers: Rais Bhuiyan and Mark Stroman.
