Trump casually posted a racist video and the White House essentially told Americans to calm down. Convicted felons are being treated better than rounded-up immigrants in detention centers. And the evangelicals' favorite president doesn't seem to understand the meaning of the word, prayer. Still, Republicans on The Hill are seeing the broad unpopularity of ICE's behavior in Minnesota and may be starting to distance themselves from the policies they funded. Plus, a simple measure beyond masks that could really rein in ICE, the extensive structural damage at the DOJ, trads keep rationalizing cruelty, and why is SCOTUS taking so long on the tariffs case?

Our democracy has been hijacked by an elite pedophile ring–one that has always been operating in plain sight. This week, Andrea and Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman dig into the horror show of the recently released Epstein files. As students of Soviet history, we know the truth: what we know is horrific, but what has yet to be revealed is much worse. Did Epstein, Trump, and their friends kill for pleasure–how many of their victims were murdered or died by suicide? Who wrote Epstein an email about a torture video? Is that person in power, wielding influence over our lives? We also examine Epstein's freelance intelligence work, showing how he collected kompromat to consolidate power through elite capture, pollinating corruption through the transnational crime syndicate, especially the autocratic regimes of Russia and Israel.  We lift up the voices of the survivors and their advocates who demand the full release of the Epstein Files. Despite a bipartisan Congressional act, only an estimated half of the six million files have been released. Convicted felon Donald Trump's former personal defense attorney, Todd Blanche, is the Deputy Attorney General, helping lead the cover-up. The only silver lining in this extreme darkness is that the truth is finally coming to light, and American society, especially the media who glamorized Epstein, are no longer able to ignore it.  For our bonus episode this week, we answer your questions about the Epstein files, rising autocracy, and more.

In the rural reaches of Florida's Panhandle, where longleaf pines line quiet roads and neighbors know each other by the sound of their engines, a sexual battery case in the unincorporated community of Fountain exposed how far the state's legal system will go to punish crimes against children. This episode examines the case and the legal architecture behind it.VICTIM PROFILE: The victim was a minor between the ages of twelve and seventeen living in Bay County, Florida. Her identity is protected under state law. What the record shows is that her willingness to come forward and testify at trial formed the foundation of the prosecution's case. Without her testimony, the legal system would have had nothing to act upon. Her courage carried a weight that no verdict can fully acknowledge.THE CRIME: In 2020, allegations surfaced that Brandon Paul Janssen had committed sexual battery against the victim in Fountain, a small unincorporated community in Bay County. The Bay County Sheriff's Office launched an investigation in coordination with the Gulf Coast Children's Advocacy Center, which provided forensic interview support for the minor. During questioning, Janssen confessed to the acts. Prosecutors charged him with two counts of sexual battery on a minor under Florida Statute 794.011(4)(b), each carrying the potential for life imprisonment.THE INVESTIGATION: The Bay County Sheriff's Office led the case with the Gulf Coast Children's Advocacy Center handling victim support and forensic interviews. Janssen's confession became a focal point at trial, with his defense challenging its admissibility on grounds of voluntariness and Miranda compliance. Prosecutor Jeff Moore presented six witnesses before Bay County Circuit Court Judge Timothy Register. The defense also raised hearsay objections to certain testimony. After roughly one hour of deliberation, the jury returned guilty verdicts on both counts.CURRENT STATUS: On November 13, 2023, Janssen received two consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole. He was designated a sexual predator under Florida law, ensuring lifetime registration and supervision. He appealed to the First District Court of Appeal, which affirmed the convictions and sentences on August 27, 2025, under docket number 1D2023-3176. As of early 2026, Janssen remains incarcerated at Century Correctional Institution.Support Obscura: https://www.patreon.com/obscuracrimepodcast/Our Sponsors:* Check out BetterHelp: https://www.betterhelp.com* Check out Chime: https://chime.com/OBSCURA* Check out Mood and use my code OBSCURA for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out Quince: https://quince.com/OBSCURA* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code OBSCURA20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/obscura-a-true-crime-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The verdict is in. Brendan Banfield has been found guilty of aggravated murder in Fairfax County, Virginia. The former IRS special agent was convicted Monday in the February 2023 deaths of his wife Christine Banfield, 37, and Joseph Ryan, 39 — a man prosecutors say was catfished on a fetish website and lured to the family home as part of an elaborate murder plot.The jury of five men and seven women deliberated nearly nine hours over two days. They heard from 34 witnesses across three weeks of testimony, including the most damning account of all: Juliana Peres Magalhães, the family's au pair and Banfield's mistress, who told jurors she helped execute the plan and watched Banfield stab his wife.Magalhães originally faced second-degree murder charges. She struck a deal — plead to manslaughter, testify against Banfield, walk out with time served. The defense called her "bought and paid for" and attacked her credibility at every turn. They pointed out Banfield's DNA wasn't on the knife. They challenged the investigation as biased and the digital evidence as flawed.None of it worked. The jury believed the au pair.Under Virginia law, aggravated murder carries mandatory life without parole. Banfield, 40, will never leave prison. His four-year-old daughter — who was in the basement of the house during the killings — is now seven. She'll grow up visiting her father behind bars, if she visits at all.Today we cover the verdict, the key evidence, and what comes next as Banfield's team prepares the inevitable appeal.#TrueCrimeToday #BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #AuPairMurder #GuiltyVerdict #JulianaMagalhaes #FairfaxCounty #MurderTrial #JosephRyan #LifeInPrisonJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Brendan Banfield will die in prison. A Fairfax County jury convicted the former IRS special agent of aggravated murder Monday in one of the most disturbing domestic murder plots in recent memory. The 40-year-old federal law enforcement officer now faces mandatory life without parole for the February 2023 killings of his wife Christine and Joseph Ryan — a stranger prosecutors say was lured to the family home and set up to take the fall.                    The prosecution's case hinged on testimony from Juliana Peres Magalhães, the family's 25-year-old Brazilian au pair who was having an affair with Banfield. She told jurors Banfield wanted to "get rid of" his wife so they could marry and have children together. According to her account, they created fake profiles on FetLife posing as Christine, catfished Ryan into believing he was meeting a willing woman for a violent sexual encounter, then executed him when he showed up.Magalhães testified she watched Banfield stab Christine seven times in the neck, then stage the scene — smearing his wife's blood on Ryan's body to frame him as the attacker. She admitted firing the second shot into Ryan herself. In exchange for her testimony, prosecutors reduced her murder charge to manslaughter with time served.The defense called her a liar who sold out her co-conspirator. They pointed to missing DNA evidence, challenged the digital forensics, and accused investigators of tunnel vision. Banfield took the stand and called the allegations "absolutely crazy." The jury deliberated nine hours and disagreed.We break down the conviction, the evidence, and the appeal that's coming.#BrendanBanfield #HiddenKillers #AuPairAffair #ChristineBanfield #TrueCrime #MurderConviction #JulianaMagalhaes #FairfaxCounty #LifeWithoutParole #JosephRyanJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lazale Ashby is a Connecticut inmate whose legal saga stems from the December 2002 rape and murder of 21-year-old Elizabeth Garcia in her Hartford apartment; DNA evidence and his own statements led to his arrest and a 2008 conviction on multiple counts, including capital felony, for which he was sentenced to death — making him one of the state's youngest death row prisoners — but after Connecticut abolished the death penalty, that sentence was converted to life plus 125 years. However, in 2020 the Connecticut Supreme Court overturned his conviction because his rights were violated at the original trial, and Ashby later pleaded guilty in 2023 and received a 46½-year prison sentence, the third sentencing in the case; he is also serving a 25-year term for another 2003 murderhttps://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

Non-unanimous jury verdicts were a Jim Crow–era policy designed to silence Black jurors and secure convictions even when the state failed to prove its case. In 2026, over 1,000 people remain imprisoned in Louisiana after being convicted by non-unanimous juries. In this episode of Rattling the Bars, Mansa Musa speaks with Erica Navalance, Associate Director of Strategic Criminal Litigation at the Promise of Justice Initiative, about the case of Lloyd Gray and why the state of Louisiana continues to uphold unconstitutional convictions.Guest:Erica Navalance has worked with both Capital Appeals Project and Promise of Justice Initiative (PIJ) since 2015, but joined PJI full time in 2021 as a senior staff attorney for the Strategic Defense Litigation project, focusing on combatting excessive sentences, capital punishment, and other injustices in the criminal system.Additional links/info:Richard A.

The Parole Board has declined parole for convicted murderer Clayton Weatherston. The 50-year-old will remain behind bars until at least November 2027. Weatherston was an academic at Otago University and had been in a relationship with honours student Sophie Elliott. In 2008 Elliot was packing up her life to move to Wellington to take up a job at Treasury when Weatherston arrived at her home and stabbed her more than 200 times in a brutal attack. Weatherston appeared before the Parole Board this morning for the first time after serving an 18-year non-parole period. Reporter Timothy Brown attended the hearing and spoke to Lisa Owen.

Jeffrey Deskovic's life changed forever when he was convicted of a murder he did not commit at just 17 years old. He maintained his innocence for the next 16 years and then, with the help of the Innocence Project, the real person responsible was finally caught and Jeff was released from prison. Now you may be asking yourself, 'Hey, how is this a GOOD story?' The answer is found in what Jeff did after this all happened: He went to law school, became an attorney and founded the Deskovic Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to the exoneration of the wrongfully convicted, their recovery, and reform of the system. This is one person's journey from the darkest of places to finding and creating his own light and we gotta tell ya, it doesn't get much more inspiring than this.

A Talk With a Convicted Registered Sex Offender and Her Transformation. This might well be the most difficult episode I have ever done. Because I have no chill when it comes to these types of offenses and crimes. Conversations about sexual offenses are often framed in headlines, court records, and statistics, but rarely through long-form, accountable dialogue that explores what happens after conviction. Check out Her Podcast appearance, and content shared for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. In a recent episode titled “A Talk With a Convicted Registered Sex Offender and Her Transformation,” listeners are introduced to Holly Bot, a convicted and registered sex offender who served eight years incarcerated in a Minnesota prison, followed by supervised release. Her story, shared through interview and reflection, focuses not on justification, but on responsibility, consequence, and personal transformation. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. The conversation is available Free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, and across major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most major Podcast networks, and is being discussed across Facebook, Instagram, and News outlets for its difficult but uncommon perspective. The Crime and the Sentence Holly Bot, formerly known as Holly Kathleen Aho, was a Prior Lake, Minnesota woman who pleaded guilty in 2010 to felony criminal sexual conduct while in a position of authority. The charge stemmed from an ongoing sexual relationship with her son's 15-year-old friend, who had been staying in her home during a period of financial hardship in the boy's family. A Talk With a Convicted Registered Sex Offender and Her Transformation. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . According to court records, the relationship occurred between February and March 2010. She admitted to police that the sexual contact happened multiple times, both in the family home and once during a stop in her vehicle while driving to a movie theater. She was sentenced to eight years in prison and four years of supervised release, and she is now a registered sex offender. “I don't tell my story to erase harm,” Holly states during the interview. “I tell it because accountability doesn't end at sentencing, it begins there.” Before, During, and After Incarceration The interview traces Holly's life before the crime, including her marriage, family structure, and emotional state leading up to the offense. She discusses the immediate aftermath, arrest, trial, and incarceration, without deflection. A Talk With a Convicted Registered Sex Offender and Her Transformation. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Her marriage did not survive the process. “Prison didn't just take my freedom,” she reflects. “It stripped away every identity I thought defined me, wife, mother, normalcy.” Inside prison, Holly describes navigating shame, isolation, and survival, particularly as someone incarcerated for a sex offense, a status that often leads to heightened stigma and vulnerability within correctional settings. “You either confront who you are,” she says, “or you disappear inside yourself.” Spiritual Survival and Transformation A central theme of the conversation is spiritual transformation. Holly speaks openly about turning to faith, not as a shield, but as a framework for responsibility and change. “I had to surrender the idea that I was the victim,” she explains. “Spiritual survival meant telling the truth about myself, even when it was unbearable.” A Talk With a Convicted Registered Sex Offender and Her Transformation. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. That journey ultimately led to the writing of her memoir, From Surviving to Living, a deeply personal Book that documents incarceration, mental health struggles, broken relationships, and the long process of rebuilding a life after prison. From Surviving to Living From Surviving to Living is more than a memoir. It functions as a reflective resource for: Incarcerated individuals and reentry participants Correctional facilities and treatment programs Chaplaincy services and faith-based groups Mental health and recovery communities The book addresses intake, isolation, depression, anger, shame, accountability, and healing, offering readers emotional validation without minimizing harm. A Talk With a Convicted Registered Sex Offender and Her Transformation. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “Change doesn't erase consequences,” Holly writes. “But it determines whether suffering is wasted.” A Difficult but Necessary Conversation This Podcast episode does not seek to soften the reality of the crime or the damage caused. Instead, it asks a harder question: What does responsibility look like over a lifetime, not just in a courtroom? The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. By allowing space for honest reflection, the conversation challenges audiences to hold two truths at once: the gravity of harm, and the possibility of transformation through structure, accountability, and sustained effort.

A Utah man convicted in the killing of a fifteen-year-old girl is about to walk out of prison, even though he has never said where her body is.

Episode 98 In 1999, Garland “Butch” Martin was convicted of killing his girlfriend, Marcia Poole, and her two young children, Brady and Kristin, and was sentenced on three counts of capital murder in Midland, Texas. The State told a compelling story: domestic abuse, accelerant-driven fire, pre-fire blunt force trauma, and motive. A jury believed it. Twenty-four years later, Butch Martin was exonerated. In Part Two of this two-part series, April breaks down what the jury didn't hear: conflicting fire science, flawed forensic anthropology testimony, discarded physical evidence, and the physics of fire that contradict the State's entire arson-murder theory. We examine the defense, the appellate process, modern NFPA-aligned fire investigation principles, and how the work of Dr. Gerald Hurst and John Lentini unraveled the narrative. Because before you can call something arson-murder, you have to prove arson — and in this case, there is zero credible evidence that this fire was intentionally set. In this episode we cover: The defense's accidental fire theory Conflicting chemical analysis (Norpar & “deparaffinated kerosene”) What Dr. Gerald Hurst and John Lentini found years later Why NFPA 921 rejects “pour pattern” folklore The missing extension cord and freezer on the back porch 40 mph winds and the physics problem for the State's origin theory Cerebral edema vs. “blunt force trauma” Anthropologist vs. medical examiner expertise boundaries The appellate court's reasoning for exoneration How wrongful arson convictions keep happening When you strip away mythology and examine only evidence, this case collapses. Every credible data point points to an accidental fire — and an innocent man lost 24 years of his life. The Crime to Burn Patreon - The Cult of Steve - is LIVE NOW!

The Murdaugh saga reaches its most critical moment yet. On February 11th, 2026, the South Carolina Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on Alex Murdaugh's appeal — and the stakes couldn't be higher.Becky Hill, the Colleton County Clerk of Court who managed the jury during Murdaugh's six-week murder trial, has pled guilty to perjury, obstruction of justice, and misconduct in office. She admitted to lying under oath at the January 2024 hearing where retired Chief Justice Jean Toal denied Murdaugh's request for a new trial. Now his defense team is asking the Supreme Court to consider that conviction as they decide whether the original trial was fair.In this episode, we break down both tracks of Murdaugh's appeal. First, the jury tampering allegations: what Becky Hill allegedly told jurors, what investigators found, and why her perjury conviction matters even though she was never charged with tampering. Second, the underlying trial errors: the defense's claim that Judge Clifton Newman allowed prejudicial financial crimes evidence that turned the trial into character assassination.We explain the federal vs. state standard debate that could determine everything. We walk through what the prosecution is arguing. And we address the uncomfortable reality that even if Murdaugh wins, he's still going to die in prison — he's already serving 27 years for stealing $12 million from his clients.This isn't about whether Alex Murdaugh killed his wife and son. The evidence against him is substantial. This is about whether the trial that convicted him followed the rules. And when the clerk who ran that trial is now a convicted liar, that's a question the system has to answer. #AlexMurdaugh #HiddenKillers #BeckyHill #MurdaughAppeal #TrueCrime #JuryTampering #SouthCarolina #MurdaughFamily #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaughJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Gilgo Beach serial killer case is fracturing. Rex Heuermann's defense just filed a 178-page motion demanding one murder charge be dismissed and suggesting another convicted killer may be responsible for some of the deaths attributed to their client.Judge Timothy Mazzei set a September 2026 trial date on January 13th — "come hell or high water" — but the defense isn't going quietly. They're challenging twenty search warrants, arguing the pizza crust DNA collection violated Fourth Amendment rights, and asking the court to throw out the Sandra Costilla murder charge. The evidence linking Heuermann to her 1993 death? A single hair on her outer shirt.The defense is demanding discovery from the John Bittrolff prosecution — a convicted killer already serving time for two Long Island murders with the same victim profile. Defense attorney Michael Brown noted that a former prosecutor previously said Bittrolff's "handiwork" was probably responsible for Costilla's death.Adding to the chaos: Andrew Dykes, a 66-year-old Army veteran, was just arrested in December for the murder of "Peaches" — Tanya Denise Jackson — long assumed to be a Gilgo Beach victim. Different killer. Same dumping ground.DA Ray Tierney remains confident with whole genome sequencing evidence, nine hairs across six victims, and a computer planning document allegedly detailing Heuermann's methods. But the single-killer narrative? That's officially dead. The question now is how many predators were hunting the same territory.#RexHeuermann #GilgoBeach #LongIslandSerialKiller #JohnBittrolff #SandraCostilla #AndrewDykes #TrueCrimeToday #SerialKiller #DNAEvidence #ColdCaseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Will Bong Revilla be convicted this time?

Episode 97 In this first episode of our two-part series, we go to Midland, Texas, where a fatal house fire claimed the lives of Marcia Pool and two children, Brady and Kristin. In the aftermath, investigators concluded the blaze was intentionally set — and they pointed to one man: Butch Martin. The state built its theory around burn patterns, accelerant findings, eyewitness accounts, and interpretations of fire behavior that were considered reliable at the time, but would later come under scrutiny as fire folklore. Claims about liquid accelerants, pour patterns, and “arson indicators” formed the backbone of the prosecution's case. In Part 1, we cover: The timeline leading up to the fire How investigators interpreted burn patterns and damage The prosecution's theory of how and why the fire was set Eyewitness testimony that shaped the narrative The role accelerant testing played in the case This episode focuses on the fire itself and the state's case. It sets the stage for a larger discussion about how outdated investigative practices — including the interpretation of burn patterns during flashover and the assumed meaning of “pour patterns” — contributed to arson convictions during this era. Next week in Part 2, we take a critical look at the defense, the evolution of modern fire science, and the post-conviction efforts that challenged the original findings.

Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair?. The Case of Stephanie Mohr. Was a police officer unfairly prosecuted and sent to prison by the Department of Justice? That question sits at the center of a Special Episode available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Former Prince George's County, Maryland police officer and K9 handler Stephanie Mohr is telling her story, one that spans nearly three decades, from a routine call for backup outside Washington, D.C., to a federal conviction, a 10-year prison sentence, and ultimately a Presidential Pardon. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “This was never just about one incident,” Mohr says. “It became about making an example of me.” A Routine Call That Changed Everything In 1995, Mohr was a relatively new K9 handler when she responded to a suspected burglary in Takoma Park, Maryland. At the time, the area was experiencing a series of break-ins. Two suspects were discovered on the roof of a building, and during the arrest, Mohr's police dog bit one of the men as he attempted to flee. Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair? Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . What followed was anything but routine. Years later, Mohr was charged and ultimately convicted in 2001 of a federal civil rights violation, becoming a police officer arrested and convicted, sent to prison for actions she maintains were lawful and consistent with her training. “I did what I was trained to do,” Mohr explains. “I never imagined it would cost me my career and a decade of my life.” An Extraordinary Prosecution According to Mohr and her supporters, the D.O.J. pursued her case with unusual intensity. After an initial trial, prosecutors sought a retrial and even brought a witness, an illegal immigrant, back into the United States from another country to testify against her. Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair? Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “Who does that?” Mohr asks. “It felt like they were determined to secure a conviction at any cost.” During the second trial, federal prosecutors introduced testimony portraying Mohr as a problematic officer with a pattern of targeting minorities, claims she has consistently denied. “That narrative was devastating,” she says. “It wasn't true, but it stuck.” The result was a 10-year federal prison sentence, which Mohr served before being released in 2011. A 19-Year Fight for Justice Mohr's case eventually caught the attention of the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund (LELDF). After reviewing the facts, the organization committed to what would become a 19-year battle to clear her name. Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair? Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “Stephanie wasn't guilty of anything,” the LELDF later stated. “Her case represented a dangerous precedent for law enforcement officers nationwide.” Mohr became the first police officer supported by the LELDF to ultimately receive a presidential pardon. In December 2020, President Donald J. Trump granted Mohr a full and unconditional pardon, bringing long-awaited closure to a case that had followed her for 25 years. “For me, the pardon wasn't about politics,” Mohr says. “It was about finally being able to say: I was telling the truth.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Life After Prison and After the Pardon Following her release, Mohr rebuilt her life quietly. She worked as a Property Standards Inspector and later a Construction Standards Inspector for Prince George's County before moving on to a similar role with St. Mary's County government. Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair? “My dogs saved me as much as I saved them,” she says with a smile. You Be the Judge The story of Stephanie Mohr raises difficult questions about accountability, prosecutorial power, and whether justice was truly served. The special episode can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. Was this a fair conviction, or did the D.O.J. go out of its way to make an example of a police officer? “That's not for me to decide anymore,” Mohr says. “I've lived with the consequences. Now I just want people to hear the full story.” Supporting First Responders This Special Episode is also part of a broader mission focused on saving and rebuilding the lives of First Responders. Stephanie Mohr's story is more than a headline, it's a cautionary tale, a fight for redemption, and a reminder that justice is not always as simple as a verdict. Be sure to check out our website .

Part 2 of 2: In our conclusion to the Baby Lollipops case, we examine the final months of three-year-old Lazaro Figueroa's life, the investigation that followed his discovery, and the decades-long pursuit of justice that saw his mother convicted three separate times.VICTIM PROFILE:Lazaro Figueroa never had a chance at a normal childhood. Born in September 1987, just weeks after his father, drug dealer Fidel Figueroa, was murdered in Miami, Lazaro became the target of his mother's resentment as her lavish lifestyle collapsed. At three years old, he weighed only eighteen pounds, half what a healthy child his age should weigh. His left arm had been broken so many times that muscle tissue calcified into bone, freezing the limb at a permanent ninety-degree angle. Despite the relentless abuse, witnesses recalled him running across streets alone, a tiny figure navigating a hostile world without protection.THE CRIME:On the morning of November 2, 1990, Florida Power and Light employees discovered Lazaro's body hidden beneath bushes outside a Miami Beach mansion. His emaciated frame bore forty-three documented injuries: cigarette burns, defensive wounds on his small hands, a fractured skull, and two front teeth knocked out months apart. Brown packing tape secured a soiled diaper to his wasted body. Medical examiner Dr. Bruce Hyma determined Lazaro had endured eighteen months of systematic torture, including being bound, gagged, locked in closets, and left in bathtubs with scalding or freezing water. The cause of death was blunt force trauma from a baseball bat, compounded by starvation and extensive bodily trauma. Most devastating: Lazaro may have survived up to three days after being abandoned, lying alone and helpless before death finally came.THE INVESTIGATION:Police initially could not identify the child and dubbed him Baby Lollipops after the cartoon candy pattern on his T-shirt. The nickname stuck as investigators canvassed Miami Beach with flyers. On November 6, Martha Fleitas recognized the photograph on television and identified Lazaro. The investigation led to his mother, Ana Maria Cardona, and her partner Olivia Gonzalez Mendoza, who had fled to St. Cloud, Florida, stopping at Disney World after disposing of the body. Neighbor Mercedes Estrada reported hearing screams on Halloween night followed by a heavy thump against her wall, then silence. Her report to social services went unanswered.CURRENT STATUS:Ana Maria Cardona's path through the courts spanned nearly three decades. She was sentenced to death in 1992, but the conviction was overturned in 2002 due to a Brady violation. Convicted and sentenced to death again in 2011, that conviction was overturned in 2016 for prosecutorial misconduct. In 2017, prosecutors waived the death penalty, and Cardona was found guilty a third time, receiving life without parole. Judge Miguel de la O told her that wild beasts show more empathy for their offspring. Olivia Gonzalez Mendoza served fourteen years after pleading guilty to second-degree murder. Cardona's eldest son, Juan Puente, died in prison in 2018 at age thirty-seven. The only publicly available photograph of Lazaro Figueroa shows him in death.RESOURCES:Learn more about this case at mythsandmalice.com/show/obscuraSupport Obscura: https://www.patreon.com/obscuracrimepodcast/Our Sponsors:* Check out BetterHelp: https://www.betterhelp.com* Check out Chime: https://chime.com/OBSCURA* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code OBSCURA20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/obscura-a-true-crime-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The All Local 4pm Update for Tuesday January 6 2025

JUSTICE! Wisconsin Judge Hannah “Diner” Dugan, who took it upon herself to violate federal law in hiding an illegal alien in her court—to face charges of spousal abuse—and helping that alien to escape the courthouse to the street where agents finally caught him, has been CONVICTED OF A FELONY GOOD FOR YEARS IN PRISON.

When firefighters discovered the body of forty-year-old Terry King inside the charred remains of his Cantonment, Florida home in November 2001, they assumed the man had been asleep when the fire broke out and died as a result. Upon further inspection, investigators found that King hadn't died as a result of the fire, but from severe blunt force trauma to his head. And even more alarming than that was the fact that King's two boys, thirteen-year-old Derek and twelve-year-old Alex, were missing.Having occurred immediately in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Terry King's murder could have easily been one of many tragedies lost in the fog of national trauma and grief; however, when King's killers were arrested and identified in the days that followed, the story was so shocking, and the motive so heartbreaking, that it managed to break through the wall-to-wall coverage of the attacks. ReferencesAssociated Press. 2002.

When firefighters discovered the body of forty-year-old Terry King inside the charred remains of his Cantonment, Florida home in November 2001, they assumed the man had been asleep when the fire broke out and died as a result. Upon further inspection, investigators found that King hadn't died as a result of the fire, but from severe blunt force trauma to his head. And even more alarming than that was the fact that King's two boys, thirteen-year-old Derek and twelve-year-old Alex, were missing.Having occurred immediately in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Terry King's murder could have easily been one of many tragedies lost in the fog of national trauma and grief; however, when King's killers were arrested and identified in the days that followed, the story was so shocking, and the motive so heartbreaking, that it managed to break through the wall-to-wall coverage of the attacks. ReferencesAssociated Press. 2002.

The Department of Justice sent out a tweet before releasing more than 30,000 new documents from the Epstein files, saying some of the documents contain “untrue and sensationalist claims made against President Trump.” The documents in fact, do contain damning documents from an apparent suicide note from Epstein to Nassar along with flight logs that show Trump on Epstein’s private plane more times than previously known, apparently with alleged Epstein victims. While the President is NOT accused of doing anything criminal, it is certainly raising a number of questions. Also, in today’s document dump, a jaw dropping email reportedly from former Prince Andrew to Ghislane Maxwell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
