Podcasts about first degree murder

On July 9, 2006, at Club Crystal in Waterloo, IA, an individual later identified as Tonye Jackson was shot multiple times and killed on the property. The shooting occurred during active nightclub hours, with multiple patrons present at the scene. Three gunshots along with Jeff Smith’s nickname were audible on a recorded Black Hawk County Jail phone call contemporaneous with the incident. After a trial lacking physical evidence tying Jeff to the crime and marked by timeline manipulation, unreliable witness statements, and significant nondisclosure of exculpatory evidence, a Black Hawk County jury found Jeff Smith guilty of First-Degree Murder and sentenced him to life in prison without parole.

In this episode of The Passing Judgment Podcast, host Jessica Levinson recaps the latest legal developments with the Menendez brothers. After being resentenced in May 2025 to 50 years to life, Lyle and Eric Menendez became eligible for parole and recently had hearings—but both were denied, mainly due to the brutal nature of their crime and rule violations in prison. Jessica explains that their legal team is still pursuing release through a habeas corpus petition (based on new abuse allegations) and a clemency request to Governor Newsom, although both are unlikely to succeed. Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:Resentencing & Parole Eligibility: A recent resentencing in May 2025 made the brothers eligible for parole under California's youthful offender framework, even though they were originally sentenced to life without parole.Recent Parole Board Denials: Despite the new eligibility, both Eric and Lyle were denied parole this August, with rule violations and the brutal nature of their crimes weighing heavily against them.Multiple Ongoing Legal Paths: In addition to parole, the Menendez team is pursuing a habeas corpus petition (introducing new evidence) and a clemency request to the governor, though both face significant legal hurdles.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

In this new episode of Beyond the Legal Limit, Jeff unwinds all things Luigi: from the arrest to the initial state charges, to the upgraded First Degree Murder charge, to the shocking federal charges. Included is Jeff's insight on why everything seemed to change in the prosecution — the impact of the massive pro-Luigi public groundswell is the culprit. In other news, Jeff describes a trip to Florida for a plea on a multi-million dollar fraud case which incredibly ended with no conviction for his young client, and why a generous act a few days prior may have caused this result. Lastly, NYC Mayor Adams' big mouthed top aide gets indicted and she still can't stop talking to the press. An update to an earlier podcast lays all the stupidity out. In short, Jeff called this one early.

The last time Mamta Kafle spoke to anyone outside of her home was the evening July 29, 2024, when she had a video call with her mother in Nepal. When her mom called Mamta back the next morning at around 11 am, her call went unanswered. According to prosecutors in Prince William County, Virginia, that is because Mamta was dead. Mamta's husband, Naresh Bhatt, claimed she had taken off, leaving both him and their 11-month-old daughter behind. After weeks of public outcry, and multiple search warrants, Naresh Bhatt was arrested on August 22, 2024 on the charge of concealing a dead body.Over the next several months, there were hearings in which the prosecution detailed a horrific case against Bhatt: one that involved him killing his 28-year-old wife in their Manassas Park home and disposing of her body. Then, on December 2, new evidence led prosecutors to charge Bhatt with two more crimes: Defiling a Dead Body and First Degree Murder. Now Naresh awaits trial, while the community wonders if he'll ever reveal where Mamta is.If you have any information regarding Mamta Kafle's disappearance, you are asked to contact the Manassas Park Police Department at 703-361-1136.
