The Documented Record

In 2018, JT Jackson (Jonathan Todd Jackson), a Navy veteran with over 200 acting credits, was arrested and prosecuted for three and a half years. Then a forensic expert found that the key email used to build the entire case against him was created in Microsoft Word — over a year after the date printed on it.

The lead DA investigator testified under oath: there was zero extortion in the emails.

The Oki Doke is the full documented record of the Kevin Hart extortion case. Hosted by Knox & Raven. Produced by Docket Media. 12 episodes. Every claim sourced. Nothing speculative.
