In this Part 2 we wraps up this series "The Richest Man in Bloody Angola" .

In this episode, we dive into the story of Wilbert Rideau, a man who spent 44 years in prison for a crime he committed in 1961.

We explore his journey from a young man involved in a tragic incident to his time in prison, including solitary confinement and his reflections on regret and survival.

We discuss his various trials, legal battles, and ultimately his release after being found guilty of manslaughter in his fourth trial. Wilbert's transformation during his time in prison, his accomplishments as a journalist, filmmaker, and author post-release, and the challenges he faced reintegrating into society are all highlighted.

We also touch on the perspectives of the victims' families and the complexities of forgiveness and redemption.

The episode explores the question of rehabilitation and whether Wilbert Rideau, now a successful author and consultant, has truly changed from the person he was in 1961.

Ultimately, we reflect on Wilbert Rideau's journey and the contrasting feelings of justice, forgiveness, and the ongoing impact of his release.
