In this developing true crime investigation, the disappearance of nine-year-old Melodee Buzzard has sparked nationwide concern as authorities uncover troubling details surrounding her mother, Ashlee Buzzard. Investigators say Melodee had been isolated for years, kept away from both her maternal and paternal families, with Ashlee withdrawing her from school under the claim of homeschooling. When the school district reported months of failed check-ins, the situation escalated into a full-scale missing person case. The last confirmed sighting of Melodee traces back to early October, at the same time Ashlee embarked on a cross-country trip documented through phone footage and rental car records, forming a critical piece of the investigative timeline. As the case gained momentum, authorities learned that Melodee's paternal family had not seen her in over four years, and Ashlee's own mother had almost two years without contact, raising immediate red flags for a potential long-term concealment situation. The case shifted dramatically when a longtime friend of Ashlee's, known publicly as Tyler, claimed she confined him inside her home during a November visit, leading to Ashlee's arrest on false imprisonment charges. But those charges collapsed in court after Ashlee produced a secretly recorded audio clip that contradicted much of Tyler's account, prompting the judge to dismiss the case entirely. Despite that courtroom twist, the most urgent question remains: where is Melodee? Authorities executed multiple search warrants on Ashlee's residence, a storage unit, and the rented Malibu used on the trip, but no major breakthrough has been announced. The FBI has confirmed both surveillance and active involvement, mirroring strategies seen in high-profile missing child cases such as Gabby Petito and Harmony Montgomery. With dependency court proceedings sealed from public access and investigators cautious about what they release, the search for Melodee continues under intense scrutiny as the public waits for the next critical development in this unsettling case. #truecrime #breakingnews #melodeebuzzard #ashleebuzzard #missingperson #justice #FBIinvestigation #crimewatch #newsupdate #investigation Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A haunting mystery unfolds in the disappearance of 9-year-old Melody Buzzard, a case that has gripped the true crime community and left investigators racing to uncover the truth. When Melody's school first raised alarms after she stopped showing up in August, few could imagine the dark spiral that would follow. Her mother, Ashley Buzzard, already struggling with mental health issues after losing her husband in a motorcycle accident, became increasingly isolated and erratic — cutting Melody off from friends, family, and the outside world. According to new reports from NewsNation, Ashley took Melody on a bizarre 3,000-mile cross-country trip to Nebraska and back. But only Ashley returned. Questions immediately mounted: What happened on that road trip? Where is Melody now? The timeline defies logic — three days, thousands of miles, no rest — and the growing concern over Ashley's mental state made the story even more alarming. Family members described her home as being in squalor, with no food and signs of serious neglect. Then came the breaking development: Ashley Buzzard was arrested, not initially for Melody's disappearance, but for false imprisonment after allegedly trapping a longtime friend, Tyler Brewer, inside her home. Brewer claimed Ashley became violent and incoherent — and even made shocking statements about what happened to Melody. Although police have not confirmed the contents of that conversation, investigators believe it may hold crucial clues. Now, a private investigator named Bill Garcia has joined the case, working pro bono for Melody's paternal family. As law enforcement and federal agencies dig deeper, this haunting case echoes the urgency and heartbreak of the Gabby Petito investigation. Every new clue, every timeline discrepancy, brings us closer to understanding what really happened to Melody Buzzard — and whether there's still hope for a miracle ending. #MelodyBuzzard #AshleyBuzzard #MissingChild #TrueCrimeNews #BreakingNews #Investigation #JusticeForMelody #NewsNation #MissingPersons #TrueCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Authorities in Los Angeles are unraveling a chilling true crime case that began with the discovery of a 14-year-old girl's body inside the trunk—known as the “frunk”—of a Tesla owned by recording artist David, a popular social media personality with a massive following. The victim, identified as Celeste Rivas Hernandez, had been missing for months before her severely decomposed remains were found sealed inside a black trash bag in the front compartment of the car. Former FBI agent and true crime analyst Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the disturbing evidence and the unanswered questions surrounding this case. Was this an accident, a cover-up, or something far darker? Despite widespread reports that the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner has yet to determine the cause or manner of Celeste's death, the circumstances surrounding her discovery have left both investigators and the public horrified. Coffindaffer details how the Tesla was towed after being parked near David's home for an extended period, the odor of decay leading police to the grisly discovery. The body—reportedly weighing only 70 pounds due to severe decomposition—was found in a space barely large enough to fit golf clubs, suggesting possible dismemberment or deliberate concealment. Evidence was later seized from David's home under a search warrant, though investigators have not confirmed whether the crime occurred there. Experts in forensic entomology and anthropology are now examining the remains to determine how long Celeste had been dead and whether her injuries point to foul play. Comparisons have been made to other high-profile cases, including Gabby Petito and Brian Laundrie, as investigators race to uncover what really happened to the young teen who reportedly first connected with David through social media when she was just 12 years old. This heartbreaking story exposes the dark side of online fame and exploitation, as questions mount about how a child's life ended in such a horrific way. Was it negligence, grooming, or a calculated act of violence? As new forensic results come to light, the world waits for justice for Celeste Rivas Hernandez. #CelesteRivasHernandez #TrueCrime #JenniferCoffindaffer #TeslaCase #BreakingNews #ForensicInvestigation #JusticeForCeleste #CrimeWatch #MissingPerson #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nine-year-old Melodee Buzzard should have been in a classroom in Lompoc, California. Instead, she's missing—and the story unfolding around her disappearance is hauntingly familiar to anyone who followed the Harmony Montgomery case. Former FBI agent and expert witness Jennifer Coffindaffer returns to Break the Case to dissect every known detail of this developing investigation, from the last verified sightings to the eerie gaps that have law enforcement scrambling for answers. Coffindaffer recounts how the case began not with a frantic 911 call, but with a report from the Lompoc Unified School District after Melodee hadn't attended school for months. The child's father died in a motorcycle crash when she was only six months old, and her mother, Ashley, appeared to have spiraled since. A chilling interview with Melodee's grandmother revealed a home in squalor, unfit for a child, and a family paralyzed by distance and dysfunction. By the time Child Protective Services intervened, it was already too late—Melodee had vanished. Law enforcement has released a crucial timeline. Melodee was last seen on October 7, 2025, at a California rental car agency, traveling with her mother, who reportedly planned a cross-country trip to Nebraska. Surveillance footage shows the child heavily clothed, possibly wearing a wig—a potential attempt to disguise her identity. As Coffindaffer points out, these details suggest intention, preparation, and deep secrecy. The FBI and Santa Barbara authorities have since executed search warrants, but so far, no confirmed trace of Melodee has been found. Through methodical breakdowns, Coffindaffer urges the public to share Melodee's image widely, drawing parallels to how social media once led to the discovery of Gabby Petito. Every share, every view, could be the one that brings a missing child home—or finally reveals the truth about what happened to her. #MelodeeBuzzard #MissingChild #TrueCrime #JenniferCoffindaffer #BreakTheCase #FBIInvestigation #HarmonyMontgomery #CPSFailure #GabbyPetito #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A chilling interview with Melodee's grandmother revealed a home in squalor, unfit for a child, and a family paralyzed by distance and dysfunction. By the time Child Protective Services intervened, it was already too late—Melodee had vanished. Law enforcement has released a crucial timeline. Melodee was last seen on October 7, 2025, at a California rental car agency, traveling with her mother, who reportedly planned a cross-country trip to Nebraska. Surveillance footage shows the child heavily clothed, possibly wearing a wig—a potential attempt to disguise her identity. As Coffindaffer points out, these details suggest intention, preparation, and deep secrecy. The FBI and Santa Barbara authorities have since executed search warrants, but so far, no confirmed trace of Melodee has been found. Through methodical breakdowns, Coffindaffer urges the public to share Melodee's image widely, drawing parallels to how social media once led to the discovery of Gabby Petito. Every share, every view, could be the one that brings a missing child home—or finally reveals the truth about what happened to her. #MelodeeBuzzard #MissingChild #TrueCrime #JenniferCoffindaffer #BreakTheCase #FBIInvestigation #HarmonyMontgomery #CPSFailure #GabbyPetito #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Before the families could speak, Hollywood did. In a stunning October 2025 announcement, Lifetime confirmed that actor Miles Merry will play Bryan Kohberger in an upcoming dramatization of the Idaho student murders. The film, part of the network's long-running “Ripped From the Headlines” series, is already deep in pre-production — casting finalized, production crew set, and a release date likely locked. But the families of the victims? They were never asked. Never consulted. Never warned. This is Lifetime's formula: turn tragedy into prime-time content. They did it with Amanda Knox, Gabby Petito, and Chris Watts — all criticized for exploiting real people's pain. But the Kohberger case stands apart. There was no trial, no testimony, no motive revealed under oath. Kohberger pled guilty in July 2025, receiving four consecutive life sentences without parole. The record is silent — and into that silence, Lifetime will now write fiction. That's what makes this story so unsettling. Without verified facts, screenwriters must invent them: imagined conflicts, fictional flashbacks, emotional arcs, and even dialogue for the killer himself. None of it comes from evidence or sworn testimony — yet millions will watch and remember those scenes as if they were true. Alivea Goncalves, sister of victim Kaylee Goncalves, called it “really angering.” The families weren't informed. They learned from the headlines. To them, the victims are not characters, and their grief is not a plotline. This isn't about one network being evil — it's about the moral cost of entertainment that blurs the line between truth and storytelling. Because when a true crime story gets rewritten for television, it doesn't just distort memory — it replaces it. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #LifetimeMovie #TrueCrimeNews #KayleeGoncalves #XanaKernodle #MadisonMogen #EthanChapin #TrueCrimeCommunity #JusticeForTheVictims Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

E423- INNER VOICE : A HEARTFELT CHAT WITH DR. FOOJAN AND DR. DONALD MEICHENBAUM ON

Social Media Mayhem Month continues with the crime that grabbed national headlines during the COVID pandemic even though it had nothing to do with masking or vaxxing. A frustrated Christopher and Eric serve up all three episodes of the Netflix true crime documentary series AMERICAN MURDER: GABBY PETITO, a show that uses bodycam footage and Gabby's own YouTubery to dubious result as they retell this tragic tale.  The stark differences between the victim's social media profile and her real life are laid bare, but the larger questions about how these two young souls got lost in the wilderness of their relationship never seem to get asked.

Jennifer Coffindaffer Breaks Down the Disturbing Case of Celeste Rivas The tragic case of 13-year-old Celeste Rivas and rapper David Burke has gripped true crime circles but has received shockingly little mainstream coverage. In this special edition of Break the Case, former FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer takes listeners deep inside the disturbing details, exposing evidence, debunking misinformation, and underscoring why this case must not fade into silence. Celeste Rivas was reported missing in April 2024. Months later, her remains were discovered in the frunk—the front trunk—of a Tesla owned by rapper David Burke, known by his stage name D4VD. For three weeks, Burke's vehicle sat in the Los Angeles heat, parked in a neighborhood later searched by law enforcement. By the time the car was impounded and workers noticed the unbearable stench, Celeste's body had decomposed beyond recognition. Investigators determined she had been dismembered, not out of rage but likely for the grim practicality of fitting her remains into the small compartment. Coffindaffer, drawing from her law enforcement background, emphasizes the importance of understanding decomposition, dismemberment, and forensic realities rather than relying on sensationalized misinformation. She explains why public awareness is critical—pointing to the Gabby Petito case, where crowdsourced tips from ordinary people led to a breakthrough. In contrast, Celeste's case has been met with indifference by both mainstream and social media, despite Burke's semi-celebrity status and ongoing tour schedule. This chilling story raises urgent questions about how missing persons cases are prioritized, why some garner national attention while others slip into obscurity, and what role the public plays in securing justice. Celeste was only 13 years old. She deserves her story told, her name remembered, and her killer brought to justice. Stay with Break the Case as we uncover every detail, from forensic evidence to courtroom developments, and demand accountability in a case that should never be forgotten.

Nick shares his own pledge to walk a 5K every day until race day to raise awareness about domestic violence — and how listeners can join or support the effort.There's also a little chaos, a lot of laughter, and some talk of an apron-only cooking channel. Yes, really. This episode is heartfelt, fun, and unlike any other. If you've followed Gabby's story or been impacted by grief, this one will stay with you.IMPORTANT LINKS:GPF - www.gabbypetitofoundation.orgRun With The Angels 5k Registration - www.gabbypetitofoundation.org/eventsGabby Petito Foundation Night with the NY Mets - https://www.gofevo.com/event/Gabbypetito2GIVE THE SHOW A 5-STAR RATING ON APPLE PODCASTS!

*Remember, opinions are like buttholes; everybody has one and they all stink! Join us for the unfiltered and unedited discussion on the case.

**Skip the foreplay around the 10:00 mark. This is a rough guesstimation due to ad placement. Two women. Two vans. Two violent endings. In this episode, Melissa tells Daniel the haunting similarities between the chilling case of Emily Ferlazzo and the high-profile murder of Gabby Petito. Young women who set out on road trips with the men they loved... and never made it home. Gabby's disappearance in 2021 launched a nationwide manhunt, viral TikTok's and headlines around the world. Just 2 months later, Emily Ferlazzo was killed in an eerily similar scenario: a van trip turned fatal and a shocking confession. What do these cases have in common? And how many more stories like this never make the news?

In this emotionally charged episode of The Guilty Files: Revisited, Brian and Dani take on one of the most haunting and high-profile true crime cases of the last decade: the disappearance and murder of Gabby Petito.From the outside, Gabby's story looked like a dream life shared through van-life vlogs and Instagram-perfect snapshots. But as Brian and Dani dig deeper into the case file, they expose the far more disturbing truth beneath the curated lens of social media.What begins as a chronological walk-through of Gabby and Brian Laundrie's cross-country trip quickly turns into a sobering examination of the red flags, missed intervention opportunities, and systemic failures that paved the way to tragedy.Brian brings his procedural lens to the infamous Moab police stop, offering a critical look at how law enforcement misread clear signs of domestic violence—and how that single decision might have changed the entire outcome. Dani, on the other hand, peels back the psychological layers of coercive control and emotional abuse, showing just how often the warning signs are hidden in plain sight, if only we're willing to look.Together, they reflect on the media frenzy that surrounded the case—how internet sleuths, true crime TikTok, and mainstream outlets turned Gabby's disappearance into a national obsession. They ask hard questions about who gets attention when they go missing, and who's left in silence.This episode isn't just about Gabby's death—it's about the systems that failed her, the warning signs society ignores, and the echo chamber that sometimes does more harm than good. It's about what it means to truly see someone who's crying out for help in all the ways she can, without ever raising her voice.For Brian, it's a case that exemplifies everything wrong with how we handle domestic calls in the field. For Dani, it's a devastating reminder of how normalized emotional abuse has become, and how easily it gets dismissed until it's too late. Listeners are reminded that this episode contains sensitive content, including discussion of domestic violence and intimate partner homicide.Stay until the end for an exclusive teaser of the Behind the Badge bonus segment on Patreon, where Brian and Dani share their own personal stories of domestic calls that still haunt them to this day.

This week on The Guilty Files, things look a little different—but don't worry, we haven't lost the plot (just maybe our minds). In this raw and unfiltered bonus episode, Brian and Dani pull back the curtain and get real about the chaos, curveballs, and caffeine it takes to keep this podcast alive. With life throwing punches and production delays piling up, they're hitting pause on the usual case deep dives to share a heartfelt update, a few behind-the-scenes laughs, and some truly wild stories from their past lives in law enforcement.From Dani's unforgettable origin story as “Door Slam Dani” to Brian's ride-along from hell featuring the mayor's nephew, Yeezys, and an Instagram livestream gone horribly wrong, this episode is equal parts vulnerable and unhinged. It's also a love letter to the people who keep showing up—the listeners who've become part of the foundation as The Guilty Files grows brick by brick into something big. You'll also hear how the team juggles not one, but three major shows (including Sasquatch Odyssey and Disturbing History), and what it really takes to run a studio while still showing up to tell the stories that matter. Listen To Disturbing HistoryListen To Sasquatch Odyssey Listen To Backwoods Bigfoot Stories Plus, Brian and Dani lay out the updated release schedule and give a shout-out to the episodes you've been waiting for: the Gabby Petito and Gary Hilton deep dives, both landing this week.It's honest. It's chaotic. It's real. And it's a reminder that sometimes the best episodes are the ones where we show up not with all the answers, but with the truth—and a few disaster stories for good measure.Tune in, laugh with us, groan with us, and remember: we're all just doing our best. The case files are still coming. But today? We're letting it breathe.

In the summer of 2021, the world was captivated by the story of Gabby Petito, a young woman who went missing and was later found murdered in Wyoming. While her story is heartbreaking, the widespread media coverage concerning her case revealed something equally disturbing - the disproportionate attention to cases of missing young, conventionally attractive white women, compared to cases involving missing people of color, particularly those of Indigenous women. In honor of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People Awareness month we bring attention to two Indigenous women whose stories did not receive the same media attention as Gabby's (and others like her), but are deserved of equal recognition and remembrance.

15 days before the murder.  “Hello, I would like to report a dispute. I saw a gentleman slapping the woman.” The police chase after the van life YouTuber couple in their white, sprinter van. By the end of the hour long investigation of questioning both Gabby and Brian - the two police officers step off to the side to figure out what to do next. One officer tells the other -  “Too many times women who are at risk want to go back to their abuser. They don't want him charged. They don't want him to go to jail. Then they end up getting worse and worse treatment and then they end up getting killed.”  The officers decide not to press DV charges….against Gabby. They believe she is the primary aggressor.  In 2 weeks Gabby Petito will be murdered. And the only person that might know where she is - goes missing.   Full show notes at rottenmangopodcast.com
