How far would you go to save the world from itself?

Cold Truth tells the true story of the life, violent death, and still-unfolding legacy of Dr. Eugene Mallove, a science writer and fierce advocate for a controversial form of alternative energy called cold fusion. Award-winning journalist and author David Kushner hosts this journey through Dr. Mallove’s life and death — and a murder case that took a decade to resolve. With interviews from family, colleagues, and investigators, we follow Mallove’s near-obsessive dedication to a conspiracy-riddled field of research and how the unspooling investigation of his death became part of that story.

Crime Waves is developed and produced by Faceplant and QCODE, in association with No Smiling, and delivers the strangest true crime stories you’ve never heard of, told by the people who were there — and the ones who picked up the pieces.
