That someone was Rob Collins, a kind and reliable 43-year-old suburban dad from Virginia. That email would change both of their lives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d075813bdc123b96f3e603/c4aa7af6-ebce-4d78-ab02-32001d84f45c/funeral.jpg About - Two years and many detours—including a psychiatric evaluation in Berlin—later, Rob's self-funded quest for the holy grail of getting justice for Frank concludes... and Rob, struggling with what it all meant, realizes he gave Frank what he really needed. That's how, in the end, it wasn't Frank’s son or his siblings, but Rob, suburban dad from Virginia, who officiated and was the only speaker at Frank’s funeral in 2019. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d075813bdc123b96f3e603/0392a8d7-b88d-44ac-a19d-c7a32334e6aa/R0000019.jpg About - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d075813bdc123b96f3e603/b7f01884-4631-42d9-9b20-a179ea953f2b/Screen+Shot+2022-01-04+at+3.18.46+PM.png About - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d075813bdc123b96f3e603/fcb5709f-0126-4d3b-806a-2709a22b576e/frank-army.jpg About - The email was meant for a British blogger. But instead, Rob heard the story. Frank said that when he was in the Army, over 50 years ago, he was viciously assaulted by a fellow soldier, and that attack left him nearly blind at 17 years old. Oh, and the alleged attacker was Frank’s older brother. But the crime was “covered up,” and while Frank had already sued the British military over this—the case even reached the country’s High Court of Justice—only recently had Frank decided to bring criminal charges against his brother. https://www.squarepegpodcast.com/test daily 0.75 2022-04-10 https://www.squarepegpodcast.com/trailer daily 0.75 2022-04-21 https://www.squarepegpodcast.com/press daily 0.75 2023-04-25 https://www.squarepegpodcast.com/reviews daily 0.75 2025-05-21
