In this episode of Crime Time, Inc., we delve into one of the most pivotal moments in American history: the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, by examining the controversial murder of his accused assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, by Jack Ruby. Ruby, a Dallas nightclub owner with a complex personality marked by both generosity and violence, shot Oswald in front of live television cameras on November 24, 1963. Despite millions witnessing the act, Ruby's motives remain deeply shrouded in mystery. We explore Ruby's tumultuous life, his erratic behavior in the days leading up to the shooting, and the significant legal battles that ensued. His trial, marked by intense public scrutiny, saw his defense argue insanity due to psychomotor epilepsy. However, the jury ultimately found him guilty of murder with malice and sentenced him to death. Ruby's unexpected death from cancer in 1967, without a new trial, left many questions unanswered, fueling ongoing conspiracy theories. This episode provides an in-depth look at the enigmatic figure of Jack Ruby, his impact on the Kennedy assassination investigation, and the enduring mysteries surrounding his actions.00:00 Introduction to the Case00:46 Jack Ruby: The Man Behind the Crime02:20 The Assassination of President Kennedy03:54 The Shooting of Lee Harvey Oswald04:36 The Legal Battle Begins07:41 The Trial of Jack Ruby09:52 Ruby's Final Days and Legacy11:23 Conclusion and ReflectionsTom Wood is a former murder squad detective and Deputy Chief Constable of Lothian and Borders Police in Scotland.

In this episode of Crime Time, Inc., we delve into the infamous Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle case from the 1920s. Arbuckle, a comedic superstar earning a million dollars a year, saw his career implode following a Labor Day party in 1921 at the St. Francis Hotel in San Francisco. The scandal centered around the tragic death of aspiring actress Virginia Rappe, who fell ill at the party and died a few days later. Arbuckle faced manslaughter charges, driven by accusations from Rappe's friend Maud Delmont, leading to three intense and highly publicized trials. Despite Arbuckle's eventual acquittal, his career and public image were irreparably damaged due to conflicting witness accounts, media sensationalism, and a societal backlash against Hollywood's perceived immorality. The episode also examines the intricate human dynamics and motives of key figures such as Delmont and Rappe's ex-fiancé, Henry Lerman. Ultimately, this case serves as a cautionary tale about the power of media, the complexity of justice, and the fragile nature of fame.00:00 Introduction to the Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle Case00:40 The Fateful Labor Day Party01:02 Virginia Rappe's Tragic Story01:30 Conflicting Accounts and Media Frenzy02:28 The Accusations Against Arbuckle05:26 The Trials and Legal Battles10:28 The Aftermath and Arbuckle's Struggle14:23 Lessons from the Arbuckle Scandal18:46 Final Thoughts and Upcoming Episodes Hosted on Acast.

In this gripping episode of Crime Time, Inc., we delve into the harrowing 1984 murder of Mary McLaughlin, a beloved mother of 11 from Glasgow. Mary was found strangled in her flat, a crime that left her community and police baffled as initial investigations hit numerous roadblocks. Limited forensic technology and a reluctant community hindered the search for her killer, making the case grow cold. Decades later, advancements in DNA technology breathed new life into the investigation. The pivotal breakthrough came when forensic scientists re-examined the dressing gown cord used to strangle Mary, extracting a DNA profile that led them to a man named Graham McGill. McGill, who was already a convicted criminal, had been on temporary release from prison at the time of the murder. Additional damning evidence emerged when his ex-wife revealed that McGill had confessed to her years earlier. In 2019, McGill was arrested and, despite the emotional and logistical challenges caused by the pandemic-related delays, was finally brought to trial in 2021. He was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison. This episode underscores the power of forensic science and the relentless pursuit of justice, providing hope to other families with unsolved cases.00:00 Introduction to the Case00:31 The Night of the Crime00:57 Initial Investigation Challenges02:14 Family's Struggle for Justice03:11 Breakthrough in the Cold Case06:17 The Arrest of Graham McGill08:31 The Trial and Verdict10:50 Reflections and Conclusion Hosted on Acast.

In this riveting episode of Crime Time, Inc., we dive deep into the extraordinary life of Howard Marks, also known as Mr. Nice. Born in the small town of Kenfig Hill, Wales, Marks initially pursued a promising academic career, studying physics at Oxford University. However, he soon immersed himself in the world of cannabis smuggling, establishing an intricate web of international connections involving MI6, the IRA, and even the Yakuza. Despite his criminal activities, Marks earned the nickname Mr. Nice due to his charming personality and ethical stance, preferring to deal mainly in cannabis, which he viewed as a less harmful substance. Though he navigated numerous legal hurdles, including a wild escape from Dutch police and a courtroom tale about working for MI6, Marks's empire eventually crumbled when a close associate betrayed him. After being arrested by the DEA in 1988, Marks faced a lengthy prison sentence but managed to secure an early release in 1995. Upon release, his best-selling autobiography and advocacy for cannabis legalization transformed him into a counterculture icon.

We then trace the evolution of his teachings from traditional Christianity to apostolic socialism, appealing to marginalized followers seeking a sense of belonging and purpose.As Jones's power grew, so did his manipulation tactics, leading to the establishment of Jonestown in Guyana, a so-called utopia that quickly turned into a nightmare of hard labor, communal living, and psychological abuse.

In today's episode of Crime Time, Inc., we delve into the unique aspects of the Scottish jury system, particularly its controversial 'not proven' verdict. Our hosts discuss the three possible outcomes in a Scottish criminal trial: 'guilty,' 'not guilty,' and 'not proven,' and explore how 'not proven' implies insufficient evidence for conviction while still casting doubt on the accused's innocence. We also examine the historical roots and current applications of the corroboration requirement, which mandates evidence from at least two sources to convict someone. This principle, though aimed at preventing wrongful convictions, has sparked debate due to its complexity and the potential obstacles it poses for prosecution, especially in cases of domestic abuse and sexual assault. The discussion extends to the global context, comparing Scottish legal practices with those of other common law countries, and considers the calls for reform, including the recommendations from the Carloway Review to abolish the corroboration rule. Throughout the episode, our hosts emphasize the importance of understanding the intricacies of the Scottish justice system and the ongoing debate about how best to balance fairness to the accused with justice for victims. Tune in to gain a deeper appreciation of these significant legal issues and their implications for real-life cases.00:00 Introduction to the Scottish Jury System00:27 Understanding the Not Proven Verdict01:17 Historical Roots and Corroboration04:34 Impact of Corroboration on Trials09:16 Debate on Corroboration and Not Proven24:06 Real-Life Implications and Case Examples27:55 Conclusion and Future of Scottish Justice Hosted on Acast.
