This is the story of two men. One man chose the path of light......the other man, chose the path of darkness. These two men should never have met. They did not run in the same circle, nor did they have similar backgrounds. The paths they chose were different. One fateful day, Rais Bhuiyan and Mark Stroman’s paths would cross, in a meeting that would result in catastrophic consequences. It would change both of these men’s lives forever.
But this is not your typical true crime story. It’s one that would unravel a fabric woven from devastating hate and rage to one resewn with untold forgiveness and compassion....and finally, redemption. This is Episode 37- The Peacemakers: Rais Bhuiyan and Mark Stroman.
