This week Blake Smith and Karen Stollznow are joined by clinical psychologist Dr. Brian A. Sharpless, author of Monsters on the Couch, to discuss cannibalism—what it is, why humans have done it, and how the taboo shows up in archaeology, medicine, psychology, and horror cinema. They cover definitions (endocannibalism vs. survival cannibalism), prion diseases such as Kuru, criminal and paraphilic cases, and pop-culture touchpoints from Ravenous to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, plus legend-tripping at Lovelock Cave and the “giants” folklore around the Mound Builder myth.Don't forget to grab Karen's latest: Bitch: The Journey of a Word

Before a body is ever opened, a medical examiner must consider what dangers might be waiting inside: fentanyl, tuberculosis or even a hidden needle. This week on Pathology with Dr. Priya, a Zone 7 series, Sheryl McCollum and Dr. Priya Banerjee share stories from their recent visit to Lake Tobias Wildlife Park. There, they took part in Wildlife CSI training, a hands-on blend of forensic education and animal encounters, including time with Chester, a baby kangaroo who quickly won everyone over. From there, the conversation shifts to the serious risks medical examiners face every day. From bloodborne pathogens and drug exposure to unstable death scenes and unpredictable infections, Dr. Priya offers a closer look at the hidden hazards behind every autopsy.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on @TheEmilyDBaker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/FGOrXwYIQA4 Join us as we delve into the latest developments in the Kouri Richins case, where she is accused of poisoning her husband with fentanyl. The defense claims the prosecution failed to disclose exculpatory evidence, specifically a changed witness statement regarding the type of drug sold. The defense requests for a court order compelling disclosure of evidence and the potential impact of the changed witness statement on the upcoming trial in February 2026. Robert Crozier initially stated he sold fentanyl but later recanted, claiming he sold Oxycodone and was detoxing during his first interview.Forensic analysis of Kouri Richins's phone revealed deleted messages and suspicious internet searches after Eric's death, including queries about deleted data recovery, prison facilities, and lethal doses of fentanyl. The prosecution has yet to make a response when Emily breaks down the complex legal arguments and the critical evidence in this ongoing case.

On New Year's Eve 1989, Mansfield, Ohio was rocked by the disappearance of Noreen Boyle. Her husband, prominent neurosurgeon Dr. John Boyle, insisted she had walked out after an argument. But Noreen's son, 11-year-old Collier, told a very different story—a scream in the night, suspicious behavior from his father, and threats to stay silent. When investigators dug deeper—literally—they uncovered the truth buried beneath the floor of Boyle's new home in Pennsylvania. Forensic science, from dental records to a Rolex watch frozen in time, dismantled Boyle's lies and secured his conviction. This case became one of the most publicized trials in Ohio history, second only to Sam Sheppard. It's a story of hidden abuse, the power of forensic evidence, and the extraordinary courage of a child who refused to be silenced. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The official narrative states that Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in August 2019, with the New York City Medical Examiner citing hanging as the cause of death. Authorities pointed to Epstein's earlier suicide attempt, his looming trial, and his isolation as supporting factors. Surveillance footage, though partially compromised, showed no outsiders entering the secure unit where Epstein was housed. The Department of Justice and FBI ultimately concluded there was no evidence of criminal activity, framing Epstein's death as the result of personal despair combined with catastrophic lapses in prison oversight.Yet, a powerful counter-narrative argues Epstein was murdered. Forensic anomalies, including neck fractures more common in strangulation than hanging, drew expert skepticism. Security protocols collapsed simultaneously: guards failed to check on him, cameras malfunctioned, his cellmate was removed, and excess bedding provided the means for ligatures. Combined with Epstein's alleged fears for his life, his ties to powerful figures, and the explosive release of documents naming high-profile associates just a day earlier, many see his death as too convenient to be coincidence. These factors have left the public divided, with compelling reasons to doubt the official suicide conclusion and to suspect Epstein's demise was the result of foul play.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

A CMO Confidential Interview with Dwight Hutchins, Senior Managing Director of Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and a Northwestern Adjunct Professor, previously Managing Director at Accenture focused on Consumer Products, Health Care and Public Service. Dwight shares his thinking on why marketers should be prepared to reduce expenses and shift resources into a re-imagined future versus incrementally evolving spend and structure. Key topics include: his belief that the complexity of marketing has resulted in many instances of wasted spending; the importance of "unaided first brand response;" why it's important to be "ahead of the expense reduction game;" and how to focus on working versus non-working dollars. Tune in to hear how about reducing $1B in spend to fund new initiatives and a "wild west" story about a battery on-pack promotion.The Fine Art of Reducing Marketing Expense in an AI WorldThis week on CMO Confidential, Mike Linton sits down with Dwight Hutchins—Senior Partner & Managing Director at Boston Consulting Group and adjunct professor at Northwestern—to tackle the question every CMO hears from the CFO: “Keep the top line growing… and cut your budget.”Dwight explains how to find waste without hurting performance, where AI actually improves efficiency (and where it doesn't), how to test into cuts with confidence, and why many brands still miss “sufficiency” by spreading spend like peanut butter. We dig into frequency capping, working vs. non-working ratios, zero-based budgeting (used sanely), org design, insource vs. outsource, and a real-world case where a company freed up billions and redeployed it to growth channels.

The Irish Times reported on Saturday that gardaí asked American forensic experts to help them in their investigation into the murder of Kenmare farmer Mike Gaine. Barry Roche, southern correspondent with The Irish Times, wrote the story.
On this episode of Crime Roundup, Sheryl McCollum and Joshua Schiffer return to break down the week’s most talked-about legal and criminal cases. They begin with new developments in the Celeste Revis investigation, where digital footprints, fake ID's, and silence from those who should have spoken up paint a grim picture of what may have happened. Sheryl and Joshua examine the forensic limitations, explore possible motives, and discuss the mounting pressure surrounding a key figure in the case. They then turned their attention to Sean “Diddy” Combs, as Joshua discusses Combs’ latest court appearance, the credibility of character letters, and the legal strategy behind his reported prison rehab efforts ahead of sentencing. Finally, Sheryl and Joshua revisit the Mann Act and its historical and modern application, including how it shaped the case of boxing legend Jack Johnson and the significance of the posthumous pardon Johnson received from President Trump.

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius This week, Mark and I spoke to the redoubtable David Watkinson who has published another fabulous Yessay (see what he did there?) on Forgotten-Yesterdays.com. This time, it's about a subject that might appear a bit dry - the band's accounts books from 1969-1970.

Weeks after the violent murders of four University of Idaho students, investigators followed a trail of DNA evidence from Moscow to Pennsylvania. A midnight police stakeout tied a graduate student to the brutal stabbings. Now the question remains: will the victims’ families finally see justice in court? America’s Crime Lab is a true crime podcast about how science solves cold cases, missing persons, and other unsolved cases. Hosted by journalist and clinical psychologist Elin Lantz Lesser, and powered by Othram’s forensic DNA lab, the show connects the science to the story, revealing what really happens in the lab and why it matters.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Genetic genealogy is a field that combines traditional genealogy research with modern DNA testing techniques to trace familial relationships and ancestry through genetic information. It involves analyzing an individual's DNA to uncover their genetic heritage, connect with distant relatives, and map out family trees. This approach has gained significant popularity due to advancements in DNA sequencing technology, particularly in the form of direct-to-consumer DNA testing kits.Here's how genetic genealogy works and how it's used by investigators:DNA Testing: Individuals interested in exploring their genetic heritage and family history can submit their DNA samples through services provided by companies like AncestryDNA, 23andMe, and MyHeritageDNA. These companies analyze specific segments of the submitted DNA to identify genetic markers that are common among different populations and individuals.Genetic Markers: Certain sections of the DNA, particularly those found in the Y chromosome (passed from father to son) and the mitochondrial DNA (passed from mother to all offspring), contain genetic markers that can be used to identify ancestral lineages. Autosomal DNA, which is inherited from both parents, is also examined to find matches with other individuals in the testing company's database.Matching and Comparison: Testing companies compare an individual's genetic markers with those of other users in their databases. If two individuals share a significant amount of genetic material, they are considered genetic matches. The more segments of DNA they share, the closer their relationship is likely to be.Building Family Trees: Genetic genealogy involves constructing family trees using a combination of traditional genealogical research and the information gained from DNA matches. By connecting with other users who share segments of DNA, individuals can extend their family trees and discover new branches of their lineage.Identifying Common Ancestors: As more people participate in DNA testing, the chances of finding common ancestors increase. Overlapping segments of shared DNA can help identify specific ancestors or ancestral groups that are shared among related individuals.Forensic and Investigative Applications: Genetic genealogy has also found applications in criminal investigations. Law enforcement agencies have used DNA databases to identify unknown perpetrators of crimes like murder and sexual assault. In cases where traditional investigative methods have been unsuccessful, investigators can upload DNA profiles from crime scenes to genealogy databases and identify potential relatives of the suspect based on shared genetic markers.Building Family Trees for Identification: Once potential relatives of the suspect are identified, investigators work to build family trees using genealogical records, such as birth certificates, marriage records, and obituaries. By tracing the shared ancestry of these relatives, law enforcement can narrow down the list of potential suspects to a smaller pool.Narrowing Down Suspects: Investigative genetic genealogy can help law enforcement focus on specific individuals who fit the profile of the unknown suspect based on age, location, and other relevant factors. This process has led to the successful identification and capture of suspects in several high-profile cases.Bryan Kohberger was tracked down by authorities using genealogy according to sources. While the process is not even admissable in court, it is an important tool for investigators who are trying to solve complex cases.In this episode, we hear from one of the industry leaders in the field of genealogy who is discussing how the process works and what goes into an operation such as this.(commercial at 12:11)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:How Idaho cops used genetic genealogy to trace suspect Bryan Kohberger's distant relatives | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Inside the Weapon That Killed Charlie Kirk: A Forensic Firearms Breakdown In a shocking case that has gripped both the true crime community and the national conversation, the assassination of Charlie Kirk in Orem, Utah, has sparked heated debate about evidence, firearms, and the forensic science behind the weapon used. Prosecutors allege that Tyler Robinson, now facing murder and six related charges, carried out the killing with a World War II-era Mauser rifle—an heirloom firearm passed down from his grandfather. On Break the Case, host Jennifer Coffindaffer sat down with forensic expert and professor Stephanie Walcott to dissect the weapon and the ballistics evidence, offering critical insight into just how powerful and precise this rifle truly is. Walcott, with nearly 20 years of experience as a firearms and toolmark examiner, explained that the .30-06 Mauser is a weapon designed for long-distance accuracy, often used in military combat and later adapted for big game hunting. With a high-quality modern scope—valued at around $2,000 according to Robinson himself—the rifle becomes deadly accurate at 150 to 200 yards, making the shot that killed Kirk “relatively easy” for even a moderately skilled shooter. This was not the work of a shadowy professional sniper, Walcott emphasized, but rather someone with a dependable, high-grade weapon capable of inflicting catastrophic damage. The forensic analysis revealed the immense stopping power of a .30 caliber round, which carries exponentially greater energy compared to typical handgun ammunition. Walcott described how the sheer velocity and force behind the bullet would cause devastating internal trauma upon impact, consistent with the purpose of such rounds in hunting large game. This chilling scientific breakdown underscores why investigators are confident in tying the weapon—and Robinson—to the crime. As courtroom proceedings continue, the combination of forensic science, eyewitness claims, and Robinson's own concern over returning the weapon to his father paint a disturbing picture of priorities and intent. The question looming over this case is no longer whether the shot was possible—but why it was taken. #truecrime #CharlieKirk #TylerRobinson #ballistics #murdertrial #forensicscience #criminaljustice #breakingnews #firearmsexpert #justice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

From Overcharged to Death Penalty: Luigi Mangione & Tyler Robinson Updates Breaking true crime developments are shaking two high-profile cases, with prosecutors and investigators moving decisively on both fronts. First, Luigi Mangione, accused of killing United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, saw his controversial murder-one charge dismissed in New York. Prosecutors had originally pursued a terrorism-linked charge after Mangione shot Thompson in the back, but critics long argued this was an overreach. Under New York law, first-degree murder is tied to the victim's status, not premeditation, and prosecutors' attempt to frame the attack as a terrorist act was widely viewed as a stretch. While the top charge has been thrown out, Mangione still faces second-degree murder charges in New York and, more significantly, a federal murder case where the death penalty is already on the table. Crossing state lines to commit murder solidifies federal jurisdiction, and experts say the case should have been federal from the start. Mangione's fate now rests with the federal system, where conviction could mean death row. Meanwhile, shocking new details have emerged in the case of Tyler Robinson, accused of assassinating conservative political figure Charlie Kirk during a public event. Prosecutors outlined seven serious charges, including aggravated murder, obstruction of justice, and firearm-related offenses. The aggravating factors cited were chilling: Robinson allegedly opened fire from 150 yards away in a crowded public space, putting numerous lives at risk, including children present at the scene. Prosecutors compared the setting to other high-profile assassination attempts, underscoring the public danger and trauma inflicted. Equally disturbing are the obstruction charges, which center on Robinson's attempts to silence his partner and erase incriminating text messages. Forensic investigators recovered those communications, which prosecutors described as eye-opening evidence of intent and cover-up. In a powerful press conference, Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray emphasized that this case strikes at the core of American values — the right to free speech and public discourse without fear of being murdered for one's beliefs. Comparing the assassination of Kirk to historic political violence, he warned of the chilling effect on democracy if such acts go unchecked. With a preliminary hearing scheduled, the government will now begin laying out its case in court, step by step, against Robinson. From Mangione's federal death penalty exposure to Robinson's calculated public attack, these true crime cases highlight the dangerous intersection of ideology, violence, and justice. Both cases will continue to dominate national headlines as courts determine the fate of two accused killers. #TrueCrime #CharlieKirk #TylerRobinson #LuigiMangione #BreakingNews #MurderTrial #DeathPenalty #FederalCase #JusticeSystem #CrimeNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Forensic tests revealed a rare tranquilizer in her system and prosecutor's say only one non-governmental person (her husband, Barry Morphew), had access to the concoction. Now he stands indicted once again, accused of killing the mother of two, and moving her body multiple times before fleeing to Arizona under an alias. Let's look at the State's new evidence, the defense's strategy to push back, and what this all means as the case moves toward trial.#SuzanneMorphew #BarryMorphew #JusticeForSuzanne #MorphewCase #ColoradoTrueCrime #ChaffeeCounty #SaguacheCounty #CaveCreekArizona #TrueCrimeCommunity #ProfilingEvil #MarriageAndMurder #BAMTranquilizer #ColoradoCrime #CourtroomDrama #AliasLife #LeeMoore #Girlfriends #Boyfriends #FamilyDrama #CourtTV #Moorman #Murder=======================================20% Off on www.Newspapers.com/profilingevil Order Wolves in Sheep's Clothing now! https://www.profilingevil.com/wolvesOrder Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult.

The DNA Breakthrough & What Comes Next Rex Heuermann's Burlap, Hair, and Pizza: The Forensic Breaks That Nailed the Gilgo Suspect After years of dead ends, the case against Rex Heuermann broke open with a slice of pizza. Surveillance teams tailing him in 2023 collected a discarded crust, extracting DNA that matched hairs found on the burlap sacks wrapped around the Gilgo Beach victims. Not just his hair—familial matches tied back to his wife and daughter, consistent with the chaotic, unclean hoarder house investigators uncovered. Forensic science has now caught up with cold cases. Whole-genome sequencing—a powerful new tool—can analyze even hairs without roots, building a near-complete profile. Defense lawyers fought to keep it out, calling it “untested.” But the court just ruled: it's in. Jurors may not understand the science, but they'll understand this: it's precise, it's definitive, and it ties Rex Heuermann to the crime scene. We dig into what that means: how genome sequencing strengthens forensic cases, why it will likely become the new courtroom standard, and why Rex's arguments about “new science” may backfire. And we ask: what about Asa? Did she know nothing, or was she so trauma-bonded and compartmentalized that denial became her survival? Her claim that “I still feel Rex is here” after the house raid shows a connection that goes beyond ordinary loyalty. From DNA on pizza crust to notes in the basement, the walls are closing in. The trial date hasn't been set, but with DNA admitted, the odds of Rex Heuermann ever walking free again are vanishing. This is the turn from cold case to courtroom reality—and it's decades in the making.

Sunday, May 25th, 1980 -- Kokomo, Indiana. Twenty-nine year old special education teacher Janet Shirar doesn't show up for a pre-planned family gathering and birthday party for her nephew. After multiple calls to her apartment go unanswered, her mother, stepfather and friend arrive to check on her. They find her car in the parking lot, the door slightly ajar and her apartment cloaked in darkness.Entering, they notice several concerning details and items out of place. A small, bloody handprint is clearly visible on the wall beside her bedroom door. As they approached the bedroom, their eyes were drawn to the open bathroom door and there, lying face down on the cold tile floor, they discovered Janet's lifeless body. She had been the victim of a vicious knife attack.Over the course of the next sixteen months, investigators commit all of their time and energy to tracking an unidentified woman who has made bizarre statements about the crime and, possibly, her involvement it. However, when the case becomes a political issue, a debate between the prosecutor's office and detectives leaves the family with neither answers nor justice. More than forty-five years later, the truth remains obscured and Janet's killer continues to walk free.Follow Trace Evidence on Social MediaTwitter --- Instagram --- TikTok --- YouTube --- Like Facebook Page --- Join Facebook Group --- Threads --- Like MeWe Page --- Join MeWe Group --- BlueskySuppport Trace EvidencePatreon --- Paypal --- Cash App --- Buy Me A CoffeeTrace Evidence Merch ShopsTeePublic --- ShopTEPod --- SpreadshopAll Other LinksOfficial Trace Evidence Website --- LinkTreeMusic Courtesy of:"Lost Time" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"Echoes of Time" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"Galactic Rap" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/#truecrimepodcast #unsolvedmysteries #coldcase #coldcaseinvestigation #murder #murdermystery #missingperson #missingpersons #truecrimecommunity #mysterypodcast #truecrime #coldcasefiles #truecrimestories #crimelovers #truecrimeaddict #truecrimejunkie #crimescene #justiceforall #missing #crimesquad #podcastcommunity #sleuthsunite #darkhistories #criminalmindset #detective #detectivediaries #forensics #forensicfiles #crimestories #crimepodcast #traceevidence #traceevidencepodcast #criminalinvestigation #justiceforvictims #detectivework #truecrimediscussion #podcastfamily #listenandsolve #crimefans #listentotraceevidence #uncoverthetruth #podcastrecommendations #podcastlove #podcastlife #truecrimeobsessed #followtheclues #cluefinders #podcastaddict #unsolvedmurders #unsolveddisappearances #detectiveatheart #jointheinvestigation #disappearance #vanishing #abduction #gonemissing #upandvanished #pacheco #stevenpacheco #podcasting #crimetalk #crimeanalysis #theories #janetshirar #shirar #kokomo #indianaunsolved #realcrimes #disappeared #evidenceBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trace-evidence--3207798/support.
