For nine months, Charity Beallis told anyone who would listen that she was in danger. She reported strangulation. Filed for divorce. Got a protective order. Went to a state senator.

Why? …

A bombshell revelation from attorney Mark Geragos has shifted the entire landscape of the Celeste Rivas Hernandez investigation: according to him, LAPD has identified a second suspect.

Eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner died on a cruise ship. Her sixteen-year-old stepbrother is the suspect. Now the public is hearing two competing narratives: the parents describing a picture-perfect blended family, and outside witnesses describing aggression, chokeholds, and tension adults insist never existed. In this interview, former FBI Special Age…

Two victims. Video evidence. Medical records. Eleven felonies. A potential 78-year sentence. And somehow, Jesse Butler walked away with community service, counseling sessions, and the promise of a wiped-clean record at nineteen. In this segment, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke returns to dissect the institutional meltdown surrounding this ca…

Jesse Butler wasn’t the monster people warn their daughters about. He was the boyfriend parents trusted. Flowers, church, country clubs, family dinners — the whole Norman Rockwell starter kit. And according to investigators, behind that perfectly polished image was a pattern of calculated violence that nearly killed two teenage girls. In this inter…

He kills a man on a NYC sidewalk — then sits at McDonald’s for 40 minutes while law enforcement hunts him. He gives his real name without fight, never touches the gun, then talks endlessly in custody. What kind of killer behaves like that? In Part 2, former FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins to interpret the odd psychology and what it might mean…

The suppression hearing for Luigi Mangione took a turn when prosecutors introduced a photo taken moments after his arrest — a photo showing Mangione had urinated on himself inside the Altoona McDonald's.

Brian Walshe is on trial right now for murdering and dismembering his wife Ana. Her body has never been found. He's already pleaded guilty to disposing of her remains and lying to police—but he says he didn't kill her. His defense: he woke up, found her dead from some unexplained medical event, and panicked. Rather than call 911, he spent three day…

Whatever happened to Ana Walshe in the early hours of January 1, 2023, her husband left a trail. Starting at 4:55 a.m., he searched "how long before a body starts to smell." Over the next 72 hours: "hacksaw best tool to dismember," "can you be charged with murder without a body," "how to clean blood from wooden floor." He went to Home Depot in surg…

From the outside, the Walshes had it together. Three kids, a house in upscale Cohasset, a townhome in D.C., and Ana rising through commercial real estate.
