Truth & Justice is a podcast by Bob Ruff, a former fire chief. Its focus is people who Ruff believes have been wrongfully convicted of crimes. It started as Ruff's investigation into the Murder of Hae Min Lee, the subject of the first season of the popular podcast Serial. Ruff says its mission is to "uncover the truth and seek justice for the victims and wrongfully convicted alike."[1]

Its investigation led to the 2018 release of Ed Ates, who was convicted of murder in Smith County, Texas. None of the collected blood, hair, semen or fingerprints matched Ates, who continues to insist that he is innocent.[2][3]

The podcast was started as a response to the Serial podcast's investigation of the case of Adnan Syed.[3]

As of November 2018, the podcast was investigating the case of Sandra Melgar, who was convicted of murdering her husband Jaime Melgar. The police were suspicious of Melgar, who suffers from epilepsy, because she told the police she could not remember what had happened. Jaime Melgar was stabbed to death after a struggle, and Melgar was found tied up at the scene. Her hands were not injured. Ruff believes Melgar was telling the truth and is innocent.[4]

The podcast is crowdsourced and much of the investigation is performed by listeners.[4]
