Smash, Smash, Smash: The True Story Of Kai The Hitchhiker by Philip Fairbanks was an immersion into the corruption running rampant in New Jersey and, even though we hear Kai’s story, it almost takes a backseat as the details unfold with the haves and have nots, where justice does not always prevail and sometimes it’s more about money and who you know.

“That woman was in danger, so I ran up behind him with a hatchet… Smash, smash, SUH-MASH!!!”
Millions of people heard these words and shared the viral video with their friends. This mysterious surfing hitchhiker then vanished as quickly as he appeared, only to reappear on many late night talk shows and fan videos. But 3 months later, he was arrested and charged with killing a prominent New Jersey lawyer… in self defense against a sex assault.
Who is this mysterious hitchhiker? What was with that lawyer who drugged and assaulted him? Why would the investigators destroy evidence, tamper with witnesses, and shut the public out of the trial?
For almost a decade, the public was kept in the until investigative journalist Philip Fairbanks searched for the truth in mountains of government records, witness statements, and hard evidence. At long last, he found the answers to these burning, aching questions…
And they will surprise you.
