Sequestration order for People v. Socrates Packer, case 24CR4477

The Odyssey Was on Trial

On October 29, 2026, a Denver jury found me not guilty in case 24CR4477. This page follows the trial and the record moving forward. My appeal in case 13CR0793 is separate and documented separately.

Why “The Odyssey Was on Trial”

ODYSSEY: A Story Told in Real Time follows my effort to document truth, accountability, and the systems that shape people’s stories. When I stood trial, questions at the heart of the project—whose account is believed, what the evidence proves, and how a person is seen by the system—became immediate and personal.

The documentary itself was not on trial. I was. But it felt as if the questions at the heart of ODYSSEY were being tested in real time.

ODYSSEY continues in real time. I’ll update this page as records, transcripts, and new reporting are added.
