Of course, the secret to escape a maze is to keep your hand on one wall while you walk and eventually, you'll find yourself at the exit. This case is a little bit like a maze. Every time the investigators thought they had a break in the case, they found themselves at yet another dead end, but luckily, they kept pushing forward and eventually found sunlight.

Alaska is the largest state in the union. It is also one of the deadliest places in America to be an Indigenous woman. Alaska Native people make up roughly one-fifth of the state's population but account for more than sixty percent of its recorded homicide victims. Four of the ten American cities with the highest per-capita rates of missing and murdered Indigenous women are located in Alaska.And for decades, a quiet, unspoken policy within the Anchorage Police Department — known internally as NHI, or "no human involved" — ensured that the women most at risk received the least protection.This episode is the story of what that policy made possible, and what a community of determined women did about it. In 2017, Brian Steven Smith — a South African national living in Anchorage — was arrested after a woman brought a memory card to police containing footage of him torturing and murdering thirty-year-old Kathleen Jo Henry, an Alaska Native woman he'd picked up near a Walmart and brought to a midtown hotel where he had maintenance access. During his interrogation, Smith voluntarily confessed to a second murder — that of Veronica Abouchuk, fifty-two, an Alaska Native woman from the village of Stebbins whose remains had been lying near Earthquake Park for more than a year. He was convicted in February of twenty-twenty-four on all fourteen counts and sentenced to two hundred and twenty-six years in July of twenty-twenty-four.But the case didn't end there.Photographs recovered from Smith's devices showed a third woman — appearing dead or unconscious, with blood visible, a man's foot standing over her body. Those photographs sat in a case file for five years. It took a community advocate digging through sentencing documents to find them and publish them. Within hours, the family of Cassandra Boskofsky, missing since August of twenty-nineteen, recognized her. Smith was never charged in her death. Her remains have never been found. In September of 2024, her family held a presumptive death hearing and a civilian jury of six ruled her death a homicide — the only official acknowledgment her family has ever received.Also discussed in this episode: the NHI designation and the testimony of former APD officer Michael Livingston, who spent twenty-eight years on the force and is now a full-time MMIP advocate; the missed opportunity when a woman named Alicia Youngblood told police in 2019  that Smith had confessed a murder to her, and police did nothing; the question of Ian Calhoun, a man prosecutors believe probably knew about at least one of Smith's murders and who has never been charged; and the HBO and Investigation Discovery documentary series "Lost Women of Alaska," executive produced and narrated by Octavia Spencer, which premiered February twenty-fifth, twenty-twenty-six.There are two rewards currently outstanding. Five hundred dollars for information leading to the recovery of Cassandra Boskofsky's remains, and five hundred dollars for information leading to the arrest of Ian Calhoun.

From The Texas Rangers To TV Star: Catching Killers. In the world of homicide investigations, few names carry the weight and respect of retired Texas Ranger Jim Holland. Known for solving some of the nation's most chilling crimes and extracting confessions where others failed, Holland's journey from The Texas Rangers to TV star has turned decades of real-life investigative work into compelling storytelling across television, podcasts, and digital media. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. Today, audiences can follow his work through The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and major podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify, YouTube, where discussions about criminal investigations, interrogation psychology, and real-world police work are now widely available, for free via The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast to listeners hungry for authentic crime stories grounded in experience rather than fiction. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. An Unexpected Path Into Police Work Holland never set out with a clear plan to become one of America's most recognized investigators. Growing up outside Chicago in Polo, Illinois, he was raised in a large family whose parents renovated an orphanage to house their seven children, an upbringing that shaped his sense of responsibility and service. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . After graduating from the University of Louisville in 1993, Holland entered law enforcement in 1995 as a highway patrol trooper with the Texas Department of Public Safety. From The Texas Rangers To TV Star: Catching Killers. “I didn't map out becoming a Ranger,” Holland said in an interview. “I just wanted to do meaningful police work and help people.” That path eventually led him into the elite Texas Ranger Division, the primary investigative arm of the Texas Department of Public Safety. Founded in 1823, the Rangers are the oldest statewide law enforcement agency in the United States and specialize in major violent crimes, cold cases, public corruption, and officer-involved shootings. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Becoming a Ranger requires years of investigative experience, advanced training, and a reputation for excellence, standards Holland met through relentless work ethic and investigative success. Life As a Texas Ranger Holland spent more than two decades working complex cases across Texas, investigating murders, serial crimes, and missing persons cases that often left families without answers. “Hard work, dedication, not sleeping, long hours, and time away from family,” Holland explained. “Being a ranger is really a life of selflessness. It's about helping those who can't help themselves anymore.” From The Texas Rangers To TV Star: Catching Killers.  Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. During his career, Holland worked security for then-Texas Governor George W. Bush and later played key roles in some of the country's most haunting criminal investigations. His reputation grew as someone departments called when cases stalled and traditional evidence ran dry. “I get brought in when there's no DNA or forensics,” Holland said. “My expertise is getting these people to talk.” Catching Killers and Solving Cold Cases Holland has cracked hundreds of cases, including investigations involving serial offenders and long-unsolved murders. Among his most notable achievements was his work with serial killer Samuel Little, whom the FBI later identified as the most prolific serial killer in U.S. history. Through patient interviews and psychological strategy, Holland elicited 93 confessions, helping investigators connect Little to at least 60 cold cases involving murdered women across the country. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. The Los Angeles Times famously referred to Holland as a “serial killer whisperer,” while national programs such as 60 Minutes highlighted his interrogation methods and investigative persistence. “Justice is a hard word,” Holland said. “There's nothing fair about someone being killed. But bringing answers to families and making sure the perpetrator doesn't have the opportunity to do it again, that's what matters.” From The Texas Rangers To TV Star: Catching Killers. The Most Difficult Cases During interviews and podcast appearances, Holland frequently reflects on the emotional toll of homicide work. Some of his most difficult cases involved missing women whose investigations had gone cold for years. One particularly challenging investigation centered on the murder of a mother who vanished as a hurricane approached, creating chaos that complicated evidence collection and timelines. “These are cases where families are living in limbo,” Holland said. “You're not just solving a crime, you're giving people the ability to move forward.” His investigative work was also featured in nationally recognized cases highlighted on 48 Hours, including “The Murder of Jackie Vandagriff” and “The Plot to Kill Jamie Faith,” where fellow detectives credited Holland's interrogation techniques as pivotal breakthroughs. It is discussed across News platforms and shared on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Apple, and Spotify, where audiences continue to get their content. From Ranger Badge to Television Star After retiring from the Rangers, Holland found himself unexpectedly recruited by television producers eager to bring authentic investigative insight to true-crime audiences. He now stars in the eight-part Investigation Discovery series KILLER CONFESSIONS: CASE FILES OF A TEXAS RANGER, which premieres Tuesdays on ID, with episodes available for streaming on HBO Max. The series places viewers inside interrogation rooms, showing how cases are solved not through dramatic forensic breakthroughs but through psychology, patience, and conversation. From The Texas Rangers To TV Star: Catching Killers. You can find the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn, as well as read companion articles and updates on Medium, Blogspot, YouTube, and even IMDB. “People think investigations are always about physical evidence,” Holland said. “But sometimes it's about understanding people, why they did what they did and how to get them to tell the truth.” A New Era: Podcasts, News, and Digital Media Holland's transition into media reflects a broader shift in how audiences consume true crime. Interviews and discussions about his cases now reach global audiences through news platforms, podcasts, and social media channels. Listeners can hear Holland discuss investigative strategy and real-world policing through shows available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, while clips and behind-the-scenes insights circulate widely on YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. The accessibility of these platforms allows the public to better understand the realities of police work, far removed from scripted television portrayals. “People want authenticity,” Holland said. “They want to understand how these cases actually get solved.” Legacy of Service Even in retirement, Holland remains a sought-after expert in investigative interviewing, frequently speaking to law enforcement agencies nationwide. Departments still call him when cases appear unsolvable, a testament to the reputation he built over decades. From The Texas Rangers To TV Star: Catching Killers.  Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. From the interrogation room to television screens and podcasts, his mission remains unchanged. “Many victims never get the chance to speak,” Holland said. “My job has always been to make sure their stories are heard.” From The Texas Rangers to TV star, Jim Holland's career represents a rare bridge between real-world policing and public storytelling, proving that behind every solved case is not just evidence, but persistence, empathy, and the determination to keep catching killers long after the badge comes off.

Working Undercover for the ATF: His Journey, Special Episode. Working undercover for the ATF is not just a job, it is a life lived in shadows, deception, and constant danger. For Lou Valoze, a retired federal agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, that life became his reality for nearly a decade as he infiltrated some of the most violent criminal organizations in the United States. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. His journey through police work at the federal level reveals the true cost of confronting violent crime head-on, while quietly removing thousands of illegal guns from the streets. This special episode is streaming for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform A Life Lived Undercover Lou Valoze's career stands apart even within federal law enforcement circles. As a long-term undercover ATF agent, he specialized in “storefront stings”, covert operations where agents create fake businesses to attract criminals involved in gun trafficking, drugs, and organized crime. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “These criminals believed I was one of them,” Valoze explains. “That was the only way to get close enough to stop them.” By posing as a gun runner, Valoze gained the trust of violent offenders, gang members, and organized crime groups. Over time, those relationships led to the seizure of more than a thousand illegal firearms and the arrest of countless dangerous individuals. Working Undercover for the ATF: His Journey, Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. From Business to Federal Law Enforcement Valoze's path to undercover work was far from typical. With a background in economics and business, he initially pursued a career in banking. Everything changed after a chance conversation with an undercover Drug Enforcement Administration agent. “That single conversation flipped my entire future,” Valoze recalls. “I realized I wanted to serve, to make a real difference.” That decision led him to the Department of Justice and eventually to a 25-year career with the ATF, where his expertise reshaped undercover operations nationwide. Storefront Stings and Violent Crime Storefront stings became Valoze's signature. These operations allowed ATF agents to dismantle criminal networks from the inside, identifying gun traffickers who fueled violent crime by supplying weapons to prohibited persons, gangs, and drug dealers. Working Undercover for the ATF: His Journey, Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “Storefronts gave us something traditional policing couldn't,” Valoze says. “Time, access, and insight into how these groups really operated.” From 2006 to 2014, Valoze's fictitious businesses served as magnets for criminal activity, resulting in thousands of guns seized and millions of dollars' worth of drugs removed from circulation. The Toll of a Double Life While the successes were significant, the personal toll was heavy. Living undercover meant maintaining a constant dual identity, blurring the line between law enforcement and criminal persona. The interview 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. “There were moments when it became hard to tell where the undercover role ended and where I began,” Valoze admits. That psychological strain, combined with the ever-present threat of exposure, became one of the most challenging aspects of his career. These experiences are documented in his book, Storefront Sting: An ATF Agent's Life Undercover, co-authored with Brian Whitney. Working Undercover for the ATF: His Journey, Special Episode. Telling the Story: Book, Podcast, and Documentary Published in 2022, Storefront Sting offers an insider's look at one of the most dangerous and successful undercover operations in ATF history. The book chronicles how small-time fencing schemes evolved into deep infiltrations of major criminal organizations. “This story needed to be told,” Valoze says. “Not for me, but so people understand what it takes to take violent criminals off the streets.” His work has since expanded beyond the book. Valoze now shares his journey through speaking engagements, podcast appearances on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast available for free on their website, plus Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major podcast platforms. It is also featured across their Facebook, Instagram, and major news platforms like their Medium and Blogspot pages. The full podcast episode is streaming now on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. His operations are also highlighted in the Discovery Channel series Operation Undercover: Guns & Drugs in Carolina, streaming on Discovery, HBO Max, and Investigation Discovery. The documentary provides a rare, in-depth look at the risks, strategy, and human cost of federal undercover work. Protecting Communities Through Federal Policing The ATF's mission is central to Valoze's story. As a federal agency under the Department of Justice, the ATF confronts violent crime involving firearms, explosives, arson, and illegal trafficking. Through advanced crime gun intelligence and partnerships with state and local police, the agency works to dismantle the networks that fuel violence. Working Undercover for the ATF: His Journey, Special Episode. “Every gun we took off the street meant fewer chances for someone to get hurt,” Valoze reflects. A Legacy of Service Today, Lou Valoze is recognized not only as a retired ATF agent, but as an author, speaker, and voice for those who have worked in silence to protect American communities. His journey offers a rare glimpse into the realities of working undercover for the ATF, and the sacrifices required to confront violent crime at its source. “This wasn't about glory,” Valoze says. “It was about doing the job, even when no one could know who you really were.” This Special Episode explores the unseen world of federal undercover policing, where trust is weaponized, danger is constant, and the fight against violent crime happens far from the spotlight.

In the Investigation Discovery docuseries "The Fall of Diddy," Phillip Pines, who served as Sean "Diddy" Combs' senior executive assistant from 2019 to 2021, made serious allegations against the music mogul. Pines claimed that during his tenure, Combs coerced him into engaging in sexual acts to demonstrate his loyalty. He recounted an incident where Combs, after a day of heavy drinking, pressured him to participate in a sexual encounter during an event referred to as a "freak-off." According to Pines, Combs handed him a condom, directed him toward a woman, and insisted he prove his loyalty. Feeling intimidated and fearing potential repercussions, Pines complied, though he later expressed deep remorse over the incident.Beyond this specific event, Pines described a broader environment of manipulation and coercion. He alleged that his responsibilities included facilitating Combs' sexual activities, which encompassed procuring various items for events known as "Wild King Nights." These gatherings reportedly involved young women and substances such as alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs. Pines emphasized the significant power imbalance present, noting that many of the women involved were impressionable and lacked influence, making them more susceptible to exploitation. He also highlighted Combs' volatile behavior, stating that witnessing Combs' anger toward employees who resisted his demands contributed to his own fear and compliance. In December 2024, Pines filed a lawsuit against Combs, accusing him of sexual battery, harassment, and trafficking. Combs' legal team has denied all allegations, asserting his innocence and expressing confidence in the judicial process.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Diddy ordered me to have sex to 'prove loyalty to my king' at notorious Freak Off party, claims ex-assistant | The Sun

The thing about serial killers is that it seems so obvious to us after the fact, right? Their behavior is so outrageous and so antisocial that we're always left wondering why no one noticed. Eli Stutzman's strange behavior was written off by everyone that knew him. He was quiet and odd, but being raised Amish, who could blame him? To the Amish, his time spent with the Englisch gave him some strange habits. No one really blinked when he stabbed himself in order to get himself out of a sticky situation. No one wondered about why he lied constantly. And perhaps if they did, Eli's son and at least 4 other people would still be alive. This is part 2 of Left Where God Could Find Him: Amish Serial Killer Eli Stutzman.Heads up that there is some discussion of child abuse and child sexual abuse in this episode.

Comedian Simon Amstell said, “If you are somebody who is going to at some point be revealed as not like everyone else, then to be in an insular community is a problem.” Here Amstell was discussing how it felt growing up gay and going to a religious school. Insular religious communities shut themselves off from the world in order to keep their views unchanged by the outside. It's extremely effective. The Amish are one such community. Most of their followers aren't allowed to use electricity or have indoor plumbing. They view modern conveniences as threatening to their religious beliefs, which are at the center of their lives. Today's case is about an Amish man who never quite fit in with his brethren. His sexuality, his disposition, and his work ethic all flew in the face of what his community believed. And maybe that's why he fought so hard to prevent anyone from finding out who he really was, even resorting to murder.NOTE: We had some microphone issues on Katie's end this week--we apologize if the sound isn't as good as usual. Sources: Gregg Olsen, Abandoned Prayers: An Incredible True Story of Murder, Obsession, and Amish Secretshttps://amishamerica.com/do-amish-believe-taking-a-photo-captures-their-souls/ https://www.ohiosamishcountry.com/articles/photography-and-the-amish https://www.ohiosamishcountry.com/articles/the-traditional-amish-youth-period-of-rumspringa https://language.mki.wisc.edu/essays/pennsylvania-dutch/#:~:text=While%20most%20Amish%20and%20Old,Lutheran%20or%20German%20Reformed%20affiliation.Investigation Discovery's "Murder in Amish Country," episode "Amish Serial Killer"Follow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.

We deal with a lot of real-life horror stories, and because it's real life, they're often chaotic and cruel. Justice might ultimately be served, but more often than not, the victims are already cold in the ground. If someone is dead-set on killing you, there's a very good chance they'll succeed. In the most satisfying fictional horror stories, of course, there's a survivor, someone who faces the monster or killer and lives to tell the tale, someone who finds deep wells of courage and resilience inside themself and defeats the horrors the world throws at them. And these stories are not only limited to fiction.Sources:Investigation Discovery's Surviving Evil, S3E7, “The Bathtub Killer”A&E's Cold Case Files, S4E24, “Déjà Vu/Secret in the Well”People: https://people.com/bathtub-killer-dateline-nbc-murders-texas-8659842Court papers: https://www.casemine.com/judgement/us/591471c6add7b04934373412https://multco.us/news/susan-walters-who-fended-hitman-provides-guidance-multnomah-county-crime-victims-portalWillamette Week: https://www.wweek.com/news/2016/08/17/a-hit-man-came-to-kill-susan-kuhnhausen-she-survived-he-didnt/Investigation Discovery's Nothing Personal: Murder for Hire, "This Man Brainwashed His Friend into Killing His Pregnant Wife"Oregon Live: https://www.oregonlive.com/politics/2014/06/portlander_who_hired_hitman_to.htmlThe Gift of Fear by Gavin de BeckerFollow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.
