A Life-Saving Broadcast: The Power of Media in Crisis

March 31, 2025 marked the 20th anniversary of Terri Schiavo's death. WORLD Radio is commemorating her death by presenting a remastered version of our true-crime podcast Lawless.

In April 2001, a call to a local radio show snatched Terri Schiavo back from the brink of death. Now, everybody wants to hear what that caller has to say. The Schindlers hope the new testimony could tip the case in their favor. Somewhere in the flurry of legal maneuvering, one man decides to slow down and talk to the person at the heart of the case: Terri herself.
