DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., April 10, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- “Felonious Florida,” the highly-anticipated podcast produced by the South Florida Sun Sentinel and presented by Wondery, premiered at No. 1 for its first week on Apple Podcast chart nationwide. The true crime miniseries, which remains at the top of the podcast chart, releases its third episode today.

The series, which explores the dark side of the Sunshine State, has already received nearly half a million listens. Fans are calling the series “riveting.”

“I really like the way Wondery does their stories,” said one listener’s review. “Dirty John, The Vanished, Sword and Scale; and now Felonious Florida, the best of them all.”

“True crime fans know Florida is a special place. This is a great new series,” praised another review.

Veteran Sun Sentinel reporters Lisa Arthur and Juan Ortega take listeners inside two of South Florida’s most horrific crimes; the notorious Casey’s Nickelodeon Murders and the unsolved Boca Raton kidnapping of a mother and daughter that has haunted police for years.
