Podcast appearances and mentions of johnathan walton

Reality TV producer Johnathan Walton found himself in a plot he couldn't have dreamt up. It all started when a woman helped him when he was locked out of his building's swimming pool. She was magnetic and full of fun and soon they became inseparable. But things weren't quite as rosy as they seemed. Four years into their friendship Johnathan started pulling at the edges of her story, it all began to unravel and he'd have to start playing detective in a bid to bring her down. Presenter: India Rakusen Producer: Edgar Maddicott Editor: Munazza Khan

Would you know how to spot a scam in your life before it was too late? For years, Johnathan Walton didn't know that the woman he called his best friend was actually a career con artist, suspected of numerous scams and fraudulent activity across the country and internationally. Once he uncovered the truth, though, Johnathan made it his mission to stop her.  If you haven't heard Part 1 of his story on Dark Downeast yet, go back one episode and listen to https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dark-downeast/id1535403320?i=1000574613882 (The Con). This is Part 2: The Convict.

When Johnathan Walton hosted a wine and cheese night in his Los Angeles apartment in 2013, he couldn't have known that the event would invite a shark into his inner circle. Flyers he hung up around the building gave off the scent of a helper, a do-gooder, a warrior against injustice. It was like blood in the water. Johnathan Walton's story unfolds thousands of miles away from New England, but the woman he knew as Mair Smith began her long career of conning and scamming in her home state of Maine.  This is Part 1: The Con. Part 2: The Convict releases Monday, August 8, 2022. Listen to https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/queen-of-the-con/id1583019312 (Queen of the Con) wherever you get your podcasts.
