Podcasts about investigations

This week we are joined by Daniel Schwalbe, Chief Information Security Officer & Head of Investigations at DomainTools, discussing their work on "ZionSiphon OT Malware First Attempts? Psyops? Both?" Researchers at DomainTools take a closer look at ZionSiphon, a purported operational technology malware sample targeting the water sector, and find that despite its alarming appearance, it lacks many of the capabilities needed to function as a credible cyber-physical weapon. They break down the malware's architecture, its operational shortcomings, and why it may be more of a prototype or proof of concept than a deployable threat. With heightened concern surrounding attacks on critical infrastructure amid the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict, the research offers timely insight into separating genuine OT threats from overhyped malware. The research and executive brief can be found here: Threat Intelligence Report: ZionSiphon OT Malware First Attempts? Psyops? Both? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

“There has not been a bigger government scandal during my lifetime,” says Senator Ron Johnson, “and yet even now that we have documented proof of corruption, most of the legacy media refuses to report on it.” In the release of his new Senate report, Sen. Johnson says he found evidence that federal health officials knew about COVID-19 vaccine safety signals in 2021 but “purposely” hid them. Sen. Johnson, Chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, alleges that in March 2021, FDA officials were briefed that their VAERS analysis algorithm would mask vaccine adverse event signals. Twenty-six days later, an updated algorithm showed 25 safety signals, including sudden cardiac death, pulmonary infarction, and Bell's palsy. Johnson says officials ordered the analyst to “cease and desist” and told the public adverse events were “rare and mild.” Brianne Dressen, who recently met with Senator Johnson in DC, joins to discuss the severe symptoms she developed after being in one of the first US AstraZeneca trials in 2020. She is calling for a new investigation into the abandonment of the COVID-19 vaccine injured. Batya Ungar-Sargon, Newsweek opinion editor and host of “Batya!” on NewsNation, asks if going to war with Iran was worth it. Psychotherapist Jonathan Alpert, author of “Therapy Nation”, argues America has grown over-reliant on therapy culture as mental health ratings hit record lows. Brianne Dressen is Co-founder of React19. In 2020, Utah mom and former teacher Brianne joined a clinical trial of AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine — one of the first in the USA — and says she developed severe side effects. She is now a vaccine injury advocate. Follow at https://x.com/briannedressen Batya Ungar-Sargon hosts “Batya!” on NewsNation, Saturday at 4PM and 11PM Eastern.

What can NASA safety reports tell us about the state of aviation after the pandemic? In this episode of Flight Safety Detectives, former NTSB Board Member John Goglia and aviation safety analyst Todd Curtis dive into recent trends in NASA's Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS), examining how reporting levels for Part 121 and Part 135 operators changed during and after the pandemic. John and Todd also discuss the fatal June 7, 2026 crash of a Gulfstream G200 in the Dominican Republic. They explore how the investigation may unfold under Dominican authorities and explain why the resources available to an investigative agency don't necessarily determine the quality of the final findings. The episode concludes with a deep dive into a 2023 fuel exhaustion accident involving a Cessna 172. After reviewing the NTSB Public Docket, John and Todd found critical background information that never made it into the final report. Their analysis highlights how additional details—including the pilot's recent passengers and the aircraft's possible weight at the time of the accident—can provide important context when evaluating pilot decisions and accident outcomes.

380: Think you're eating chocolate? Maybe not. In this episode, I'm breaking down what's really hiding behind some of the most recognizable chocolate brands on grocery store shelves. After digging through FDA regulations, ingredient labels, lawsuits, recalls, and independent lab testing, I found that many products marketed as "chocolate" don't actually meet the standards most people assume they do. We'll talk about the difference between real cacao and chocolate-flavored candy, why ingredients like palm oil and PGPR matter, what recent testing found in certain chocolate products, and how to identify truly high-quality chocolate if you're looking for the health benefits often associated with cacao. Plus, I share my favorite 100% cacao brands, why I eat chocolate every day, and what the research actually says about chocolate's impact on heart health, antioxidants, gut health, and more. If you're a chocolate lover, this episode may completely change the way you shop for chocolate. Topics Discussed: → What legally qualifies as real chocolate? → How to spot fake chocolate on ingredient labels → Why some popular chocolate brands use vegetable oils instead of cocoa butter → The difference between U.S. and European chocolate standards → Artificial dyes, additives, and controversial chocolate ingredients → Heavy metals found in certain chocolate products → Why real cacao has earned its health reputation → The benefits of cacao flavanols and polyphenols → How to choose high-quality dark chocolate → The best 100% cacao chocolate brands As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.

Every once in a while, we revisit an older conversation and realize that it may be even more relevant today than when we first recorded it. That is exactly how I feel about this episode with Nathan Zieber, a pastor, former private investigator, and former investigator with MUFON Canada. Nathan has been called the “Paranormal Pastor” because of his willingness to enter communities that many Christians either fear, dismiss, or simply do not understand.

In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes David Simon, Partner at Foley & Lardner, and Jack Korba Of Counsel at Foley & Lardner, and Olivier Bustin a Partner at Pinsent Masons about doing business in and with the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). This is the first part of a two-part series on this topic. The guests present a detailed manner to evaluate  and manage going into a high-risk country or region.   The three argue that while governance and logistics risks remain, improved infrastructure and heightened strategic importance of the DRC's critical minerals (including cobalt, coltan, lithium, manganese, and rare earths) make risks more manageable and the market more relevant, with noted U.S. government continuity across administrations. They discuss opportunities beyond mining, including power, logistics, banking/insurance, tech, entertainment, and education, while emphasizing infrastructure and bankability constraints. Korba outlines national security, sanctions/export controls, and supply chain “adjacency” risks, and the need for sector-specific analysis. The panel highlights “choke points” from concentrated power and weak institutions, and Bustin explains why local content/ownership rules and patronage dynamics require diligence beyond nominal ownership. They conclude with applying a risk-based compliance approach, devoting enhanced resources to higher-risk projects and counterparties.  Key Highlights  ·      Why DRC Now ·      Beyond Mining Opportunities ·      National Security Risks ·      Choke Points Explained ·      Local Ownership Diligence ·      Risk Based Compliance  Resources David Simon Jack Korba Olivier Bustin Foley & Lardner Pinsent Masons The Democratic Republic of the Congo as a Near-Term Strategic Opportunity for U.S. Companies Part 1 Part 2 Part 3   Tom Fox Instagram Facebook YouTube Twitter LinkedIn   To learn about the intersection of Sherlock Holmes and the modern compliance professional, check out my latest book, The Game is Afoot-What Sherlock Holmes Teaches About Risk, Ethics and Investigations on Amazon.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Ethics Investigations into the Newsom Administration. Guest: Jeff Bliss. Governor Gavin Newsom and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, face investigations regarding millions in "behested payments" from entities like PG&E to her media company.

The menace is everywhere and you can hardly spot it, stop it or punish it. Synopsis: Every third Friday of the month, The Straits Times gets its US Bureau Chief to analyse the hottest political and trending talking points. Singapore recently ordered social media platforms to block access to 14 online posts that target the Indian community, such as by suggesting that Singapore was being overrun by Indians. Investigations showed that the content most likely originated from a platform based in China and was subsequently carried on other platforms and websites, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said in a statement on June 6. In this episode, US Bureau Chief Bhagyashree Garekar chats with a US-based expert who has studied disinformation, defined as organised and systematic efforts to manipulate people and to transmit false narratives. Darrell West of the Brookings Institution has carried out extensive research on how technologies such as generative AI can be used to create serious threats to personal safety, race relations and governance. He is a senior fellow at the Center for Technology Innovation within the Governance Studies programme. He is the co-author of Lies That Kill: A Citizen’s Guide to Disinformation. It explains how falsehoods spread and what citizens, institutions, and policymakers can do to resist them. His bottom line? Only you can protect yourself from disinformation. Highlights (click/tap above): 1:03 Disinformation is more than misinformation 4:12 Where is all the disinformation coming from? 5:08 How Iran beat the US in information war 8:10 Does the US use disinformation as well? 10:12 Who’s at the top of the disinfo game? 13:30 Do disinfo producers ever pay a price? 19:04 Disinformation will get worse ahead of US elections 20:41 Only you can protect you 24:32 Are Gen Z better at detecting fakes?

What happens when a career-ending injury is followed by years of failed treatments, multiple surgeries, and no clear answers? In this episode, Sergeant of Investigations, Tim Putney, shares his journey through chronic pain after an on-duty injury nearly ended his law enforcement career and sent him on a years-long search for answers. What began as a single on-duty injury became a years-long road marked by chronic back pain, failed spine surgeries, a spinal cord stimulator, workers' compensation battles, and dead ends. Joining the conversation is VSI spine surgeon Dr. Ehsan Jazini, who discusses why some patients continue to struggle with pain despite previous treatments and spine surgeries, what is often missed in complex cases, and how the right diagnosis can uncover solutions that others may have overlooked. Together, they explore: Failed back surgery and persistent pain The impact of chronic pain on mental health Challenges first responders face after injury Modern spine treatments and recovery advancements Why getting the right diagnosis matters Released during Men's Health Month, this episode highlights a challenge many men face but rarely discuss openly: chronic pain impacts far more than physical health. It can affect identity, relationships, mental health, and the ability to do the things that matter most. Most importantly, Tim shares how he was able to return to the life he thought he'd lost—including walking his daughter down the aisle. If you've been told to "just live with it," this conversation offers something many patients desperately need to hear: you may not be out of options.

Declassified UK and the International Centre of Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) have recently launched a major campaign to demand the end of impunity for the approximately 2,000 British nationals who have served in the Israeli military and who may have been involved in war crimes in Gaza.This comes at a time when supporting Palestine in the UK and taking action to stop Israel's genocide in Gaza can be a chargeable offence under the Terrorism Act 2000.Ahmed Al-Naouq and Hala Hanina are joined in the studio by John McEvoy, investigative journalist and chief reporter at Declassified UK, and Shaima Dallali, a legal rsearcher with the ICJP, to discuss the campaign and examine the broader state of civil liberties and the rule of law in Britain. They look at the case of the Filton 4, the Palestine-Action linked activists sentenced as terrorists last week despite not being charged or convicted of terrorist offences, as well as the Court of Appeal's decision to uphold the UK government's ban on Palestine Action.Support us by becoming a paid subscriber from as little as £1 a month.

In Hour 4, Jeff Monasso joins Ryan Wrecker and Kim St. Onge to discuss Illinois' new medical aid-in-dying law, known as Deb's Law. The conversation covers the law's requirements, safeguards for terminally ill patients, ongoing legal challenges from disability rights advocates, and the broader ethical debate surrounding end-of-life care, patient autonomy, and medical decision-making. Later, Ryan Wiggins joins the show to discuss reports of ongoing Department of Justice investigations connected to Gavin Newsom and his administration. The group examines Newsom's claims of political targeting, allegations involving potential government fraud, comparisons to investigations in other states, and the possible political implications if the probes continue to expand.

Ryan Wiggins joins Ryan Wrecker and Kim St. Onge to discuss reports of ongoing Department of Justice investigations connected to Gavin Newsom and his administration. The conversation examines Newsom's claims of political targeting, reports that the probes may involve broader fraud allegations, and what potential legal or political fallout could mean for California's political leadership. Wiggins also explores comparisons to fraud investigations in other states, questions surrounding government oversight, and whether these cases point to larger systemic issues involving public funds and political accountability. The discussion wraps up with speculation about where the investigations could lead, the potential impact on future political campaigns, and why corruption allegations continue to resonate with voters across the country.

Every HR professional knows the feeling: a complaint comes in, and you sense that whatever you do next could be read back to you under oath. This week, Pete Wright sits down with AIM HR Solutions' Sarah Piscatelli and Tom Jones to talk through how to run a workplace investigation that actually holds up — starting with the question employers ask most, "Do I even have to investigate?"From anonymous complaints and he-said-she-said standoffs to the difference between a real policy violation and ordinary workplace drama, the conversation gets practical fast. Along the way: who should hold the pen, when to call in an outside investigator, why you can't promise the confidentiality everyone wants, and the retaliation trap that snares companies even after they've won. Plus, what invisible recording devices and AI note-takers mean for HR in a two-party-consent state.Links & NotesAIM HR Solutionshttps://aimhrsolutions.comHRInfo@AIMHRSolutions.com | 617-488-8321AIM HR Helpline (for AIM members)https://aimnet.org/hr-helpline/800-470-6277 | helpline@aimnet.orgMonday–Friday, 8:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m. ETEEOC — Questions and Answers: Enforcement Guidance on Retaliation and Related IssuesMassachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD)Massachusetts Wiretap Statute — M.G.L. c. 272, § 99 (two-party consent / interception of wire and oral communications) AIM HR Solutions Training CatalogAIM members can reach the HR Helpline at 800-470-6277 or helpline@aimnet.org for inquiries Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (EST).

Investigations

This week on Crime Time Inc., former senior detectives Simon and Tom examine the growing pressures facing modern policing and criminal investigations.The discussion begins with concerns over digital forensic backlogs in Scotland, where increasing demand for mobile phone analysis, cybercrime investigations, toxicology testing and digital evidence recovery is placing unprecedented strain on forensic services. The pair explore how delays can impact criminal prosecutions and why investment in specialist technology has become essential for modern law enforcement.The conversation then turns to the tragic case of Tony Parsons, the former Royal Navy officer and cancer survivor who disappeared during a charity cycling challenge in the Scottish Highlands. Simon and Tom revisit the investigation, the eventual discovery of Parsons' remains, and the crucial role played by a witness whose actions helped bring those responsible to justice. They also discuss the wider challenges of missing person investigations and whether enough support is provided to individuals who assist police investigations.Also covered in this episode:The growing importance of digital forensics in modern policingCybercrime and the increasing demand on forensic laboratoriesPolice Scotland funding and resource challengesDrug-driving investigations and toxicology delaysArtificial intelligence and the future of criminal investigationsThe handling of missing person casesWitness welfare and informant protectionPolice supervision, specialist units and officer burnoutRoyal protection duties and security operationsScottish political frustrations and voter disengagementThe Royal Yacht Britannia and Edinburgh tourismDrawing on decades of policing experience, Simon and Tom offer a candid look at how investigations succeed or fail, and why technology alone can never replace good judgement, proper supervision and adequate resources.About Crime Time Inc.Season 5 of Crime Time Inc. broadens its reach across two sides of the Atlantic.This season features cases from Scotland and across the wider UK — rooted in real investigative experience — alongside deep dives into some of the most infamous murder cases in American history.Hosted by former detectives Simon and Tom, with experience in both the UK and the United States, including time working alongside the FBI, the show strips away sensationalism to explain how crime and justice really work.Two crime worlds.

Paranormal and HIghly Strange Experiences with Guests Mario, Nansi and TonyNansi Glover Bio: After 20+ years of having personal encounters with the spiritual side of the paranormal, Over the last 3 years with the introduction of surveillance cameras to her home, Nansi Glover (pseudonym) began to encounter a twist to the phenomena. Those very same surveillance cameras began to show what at first appeared to be the rolling in of a strange mist illuminated by the infrared beams of her cameras. What made this mist so strange? The apparent manifestation of figures in the mist. It's at this point that Nansi was reaching out to paranormal investigators with her photos and video in a pursuit to harness answers.Tony Harris Bio: This is where Tony Harris, Captain of Strange Happenings Investigators of the Paranormal (S.H.I.P) came to investigate what was occurring on this property as a boots on the ground investigator. Tony has been a paranormal investigator for more than twenty years in the Wellington region, based out of Fergus, Ontario.Mario A. Neophytou Bio: Seeking for a third opinion, Nansi brought in Mario A. Neophytou, Founder of New Light Paranormal, who would analyze clips, differentiating a parallel between the conventional explanation and an open minded approach to what possibly presents itself as paranormal. Mario is the founder of New Light Paranormal based out of Keswick, Ontario. Having experience phenomena throughout his life, Mario seeks to bridge the paths of what is the mundane explanation with the possibility of what a boundless paranormal world can offer whilst understanding the importance of remaining grounded with critical thought.The three discuss and evaluate the possibilities of what is occurring on Nansi's property, reviewing images and videos of what is caught on the security cameras. It is theorized that Nansi is within proximity to a portal that utilize non conventional methods to materialize. From spirits to an interdimensional presence. The portal is open and we are watching. Links:NLP Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewLightPara?rdid=Hk4We1llU6yIAHns&share_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fshare%2F1FRc2ENH2G%2F#SHIPFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/1StrangeHappenings1?rdid=OqKQDEa8g9OrsBZO&share_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fshare%2F18fdSpu4DR%2F#TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nansi.glover?_r=1&_t=ZS-95jeOflNrsIYouTube Videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtVZzHipoQpCTEWcmC1Vd8KDW986xnnyQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byakhopehDghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3W-JDkMF7M

On August 12, 1984, 13-year-old Eugene Wade Martin vanished while delivering newspapers in Des Moines, Iowa. Just two years earlier, another paperboy, Johnny Gosch, disappeared under eerily similar circumstances only miles away. Despite extensive investigations, countless theories, and decades of speculation, neither boy has ever been found. In Part One of The Paper Boy Abductions, I walk you through the mysterious disappearance of Eugene Martin, the haunting parallels to Johnny Gosch's case, and the questions that continue to surround two of Iowa's most infamous unsolved child disappearances.Anyone with information about Eugene Martin is asked to call Det.

Innovation comes in many areas, and compliance professionals need to not only be ready for it but also embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. In this episode,  host Tom visits with Tim Morss, CEO at SpeakUp, about the evolution of speak-up systems from the employee perspective. Morss describes his background in compliance technology and SpeakUp's global footprint, emphasizing that employee expectations favor frictionless, mobile-first, intuitive reporting with transparency and feedback over 800-number hotlines and complex forms. He notes common program gaps: hard-to-find reporting channels, poor mobile experiences, overreliance on telephony (especially problematic for non-English speakers), insufficient guidance on what to report, and weak trust due to lack of follow-up and perceived inaction. They consider generational preferences, privacy-aware deployment, such as QR code placement, and AI use cases such as multilingual voice intake for illiterate supply-chain workers, while cautioning against unsafe AI practices and autonomous decision-making. Morss highlights investigative management as a major opportunity beyond basic case repositories and forecasts greater AI-driven integration with in-house systems amid geopolitical and regulatory divergence.

Three active cases. Three different kinds of evidence failures. And the same underlying question: when investigators lose evidence, fail to collect it, or mishandle it, what are the real consequences — for the cases and for the system?In the Aaron Spencer case, a dashcam SD card was handled inconsistently with every other piece of evidence at the scene, in violation of department policy, and lost. A judge found the conduct gave "the appearance of a coverup" and dismissed the murder charge. Spencer was running for sheriff against the incumbent whose department handled the evidence.In the Mackenzie Shirilla case, investigators proved a double murder without a confession or testimony — using a data recorder that captured the accelerator floored at close to a hundred miles per hour with zero braking, surveillance footage showing a controlled trajectory, prior threats, a rehearsal drive, and coded jail calls that allegedly revealed a plan to fabricate a medical defense.In the Anna Kepner case, DNA evidence points to Timothy Hudson with 120 sextillion-to-one certainty, and injuries consistent with sustained force ruptured both of Anna's eardrums. But the FBI's lead agent couldn't confirm whether DNA was collected from Anna's neck — the area connected to the cause of death. The judge allowed Hudson to remain free on bond.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer and retired FBI Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program Chief Robin Dreeke join Tony Brueski for an extended analytical conversation about how the Bureau evaluates each of these failures, what the evidence tells them that it doesn't tell the general public, and where each case stands heading toward resolution.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this installment of our Workplace Strategies Watercooler 2026 podcast series, shareholders Cynthia Bremer (Minneapolis), Scott James Preston (Indianapolis), and Bethany Wagner (Pittsburgh) examine the evolving landscape of workplace investigations, with a focus on how AI and remote work are reshaping the types and complexity of complaints employers face. The speakers discuss why thorough, well-documented investigations matter—from preserving employee morale to avoiding litigation exposure—and the value of involving in-house counsel early. They also walk through the most critical investigative mistakes to avoid, including selecting the wrong investigator, reaching premature conclusions, and dismissing complaints due to fatigue.

In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes Dr. Dennis Cummins to discuss his latest book, Invitational Selling: The Human Connection Advantage. Dr. Cummins is a renowned expert in the field of invitational selling, with extensive experience presenting and selling from the stage globally. He discovered that prioritizing conversations and genuine connections over high-pressure sales tactics not only aligned with his values but also enhanced his effectiveness in sales. This led him to develop the concept of invitational selling, which emphasizes sharing one's gifts and talents to empower others and help them benefit from available services. Dr. Cummins encapsulated his philosophy in his new book, leveraging his global speaking engagements and interactions with various companies. In his book Dr. Cummins emphasizes the importance of building authentic connections in sales rather than relying on high-pressure tactics. He introduces the concept of ‘Invitational Selling,' which involves connecting with customers, conveying the benefits, and inviting them to engage, thereby fostering genuine relationships and enhancing sales effectiveness. This approach is applicable not only in sales but also in leadership and family dynamics, promoting engagement and collaboration through invitation rather than coercion. As customers are inundated with sales messages and wary due to information overload, prioritizing empathy and understanding separates successful sales professionals in a technology-driven world. Real-life examples, such as Lauren's bead bracelets, highlight that product value extends beyond materials to the emotional connections and meanings they hold for customers. Committed to giving back, he has pledged all proceeds from the book's initial launch to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Key highlights: Authentic connections in sales enhance effectiveness and drive sales growth. Invitational selling focuses on connecting, conveying, and converting to inspire buy-in from employees and foster collaboration. Maintaining a personal touch and understanding customer needs sets sales professionals apart in a technology-driven world. Balancing AI efficiency with personal elements is crucial to overcoming trust issues and fostering genuine connections. The true value of a product lies in the emotions, connections, and meanings it represents to individuals.

As reports of severe illness and death come in, the Bozeman outbreak moves from medical mystery to full public health investigation. Local and state investigators race to identify the source, shut down the risk, interview patients, collect food samples, and figure out whether anyone else could still be in danger.The early signal points toward one unlikely ingredient: morel mushrooms. But for toxicologists, that raises more questions than answers. Morels are supposed to be edible. Rapid vomiting and diarrhea usually suggest foodborne illness, not a deadly mushroom poisoning. So investigators have to ask the question that will drive the rest of the series: is the morel really the culprit, or is something else hiding in the meal?In Episode 2 of A Morel Dilemma, we meet the public health team on the front lines, hear how the outbreak was contained, and begin testing the first theories behind what made diners so sick.Select references:False Morel Text BookFDA Survey of Imported Mushrooms Contamination with Toxic SpeciesDr. Vohra' studyBonus Episode on Remembering Toxic MushroomsDr. Stanton's Muscarine CaseBonus Episode on MuscarineA Morel DilemmaSupport the showReview the show where ever your listeningGet Messages from Toxo (Join the Newsletter!)Join as a supporting memberAd free episodesBonus content and early accessDiscounts and give aways on GOTA PICCEM Mushroom card gameThe GOTTA PICCEM Poisonous Mushroom Game!The Poisonus Fungus Amongus Children's Book!Full book reading (6 minutes!)Tox trinkets (Rep the show at home!)Reach the showEmail: Toxtalk1@gmail.comMore Show ResourcesRyan's Medical Games and ResourcesShow Website

Support resources are listed at the end of these notes.This EpisodeSeason 40: Fifty states, fifty forgotten crimes, America's 250th year. Episode 9 covers California and Alabama — two cases, two communities that looked at the legal system and reached for something uglier. October 10, 1890. A woman named Helen Riche is playing cards in her tavern near a California quicksilver mine when ten men in flour-sack hoods crash through the door. She does not run. She reaches up and rips the mask off the nearest man's face, and in that single act she solves the crime that is about to kill her. This is true crime history from the American frontier, and the legal system that followed would leave you cold.December 1888, Birmingham, Alabama. A railroad engineer named Richard Hawes boards a streetcar with his eight- year-old daughter May. He gets off with her at East Lake. He gets back on alone. The body of a young girl is found floating in the lake the next morning. On the same day, Hawes is across the state line getting married. When Birmingham finds out, two thousand people march on the jail.The VictimsHelen Matilda Riche ran the Campers' Retreat tavern on sixty-two acres near the Bradford quicksilver mine, three miles south of Middletown, California. We do not know where she was born or how she came to run a mining-camp saloon in hard hill country — the historical record is thin on her life before October 10, 1890. What it preserves is a woman who managed a clientele of mercury miners in one of the most physically dangerous industries of the era. She was shot five times during the raid. She fought back, reaching for her husband's .44 Winchester with five bullets already in her body. She died four days later. Her husband J.W. Riche died less than three months after her, his own bullet wound never having healed.May Hawes was eight years old when her father took her on a one-way train ride to East Lake on the evening of December 3, 1888. She had been doing the work of a parent since she could walk, looking after younger siblings in a household already coming apart. She was laid out for public identification at Lockwood & Miller's Funeral Parlor in Birmingham, unidentified for a full day. A local butcher recognized her. May, her mother Emma, and her six-year-old sister Irene — all three murdered by Richard Hawes — lay in an unmarked grave at Oak Hill Cemetery in Birmingham for more than 135 years. In April 2024, they finally received a headstone.The CrimesThe Lake County White Cap raid followed personal grudges that had been tightening for months. Blackburn, a mine foreman, had been thrown out of the Campers' Retreat after a brawl with the bartender Fred Bennett. Others in the group had boundary disputes, cattle quarrels, neighborhood debts to settle. They put flour sacks over their heads and called it a community morality action — the Whitecapping movement had spread from Indiana through the Southern states and into California by 1890. The plan was to flog Bennett and run him to the county line. Helen Riche unmasked Henry Arkarro the moment the men crashed through the door, and the plan collapsed into gunfire.Richard Hawes murdered three members of his own family to clear the way for a new marriage. Emma and Irene Hawes were found bound with curtain cord and weighted with railroad iron curve-braces in a Birmingham lake on December 8, 1888 — the same day a mob of approximately 2,000 people converged on the Jefferson County Jail demanding to hang him on the spot. Sheriff Joseph S. Smith fired into the crowd. Ten men were killed. Approximately thirty were wounded. The historical murder case that followed Hawes would take fourteen more months and a formal trial to reach the same conclusion the mob wanted.The Investigations and Legal OutcomesIn California, ten men were arrested within days. The mining community was small; Helen Riche had identified one attacker herself. The trial opened February 6, 1891, in Lakeport — *People of the State of California v. B.F. Staley et al.* Four men were convicted of second-degree murder: Blackburn sentenced to twenty-five years, Staley and Cradwick to twenty years each, Osgood to twelve years. All four were released from San Quentin within approximately three years. The Governor had commuted Blackburn's sentence to ten years following an extensive lobbying campaign. Three years, for a home invasion that killed two people.In Alabama, Richard Hawes was tried beginning April 22, 1889, before Judge Samuel Greene. The prosecution built the case around May's murder — the strongest evidence available, though entirely circumstantial: eyewitness testimony placing father and daughter on the streetcar together, and only the father returning. The jury deliberated fifty-five minutes. Death. After multiple appeals to the Alabama Supreme Court, all denied, Richard Hawes was hanged by Sheriff Smith on February 28, 1890 — the same man who had fired into a crowd to keep him alive for this moment. Hawes wore a geranium in his lapel. The gallows were built by a man who had served on his jury.Historical ContextBoth cases sit at a specific American intersection: communities losing faith in institutional justice and reaching for extralegal violence, with consequences that fell hardest on people who had nothing to do with the original grievance. The Whitecapping movement was already documented across Indiana, Tennessee, and Mississippi before it reached California. In Alabama, the Birmingham riot of 1888 killed ten bystanders, including Maurice Throckmorton, thirty-three, the city's postmaster, who was reportedly trying to calm the crowd when he was shot. The legal system delivered the outcome the mob demanded — it just took fourteen months and cost ten additional lives to get there.California's legislature responded to the broader wave of hooded vigilantism during this period with enhanced anti- vigilante and anti-mask statutes. For the Hawes case, Fannie Bryant — the family's cook and a key witness for the prosecution — was herself sentenced to death for allegedly aiding Hawes. She died in a prison riot before the sentence could be carried out. Her actual level of involvement remains contested. She was a Black woman in 1880s Alabama, easily targeted by a system that offered her no protection.Our Sponsors:* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mood and use my code SHANE for a great deal: https://mood.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

(4) Josh Rogin examines upcoming Section 301 investigations that will address Chinese forced labor and dumping. Simultaneously, a critical shortage of magnets from China is impacting the production of U.S. defense technology and fighter jets.

An investigation by The CITY, built from a database of more than 1,200 lawsuits filed against Immigration and Customs Enforcement, found that of the 430 street arrests it documented across the New York City area, more than 93% targeted Latinos -- far out of proportion to their share of the undocumented population. Gwynne Hogan, senior reporter covering immigration and homelessness for The CITY, and Rosalind Adams, investigative reporter for THE CITY, share their findings and what the numbers reveal about how ICE is operating across the city.
