Resources: Part 1 - The Anatomy of a Serial Killer: Psychology, Profiling, Prevention In this episode of Zone 7, Crime Scene Investigator, Sheryl McCollum and Phil Chalmers talk with Aeman Presley as he recounts his descent into violence; from an aspiring actor with a troubled past to a convicted serial killer. Aeman reveals the psychological battle he’s fought since childhood, marked by fatherlessness, gang affiliation, and undiagnosed mental health issues. He talks openly about his early life in Chicago, his attempts to pursue a professional life in acting, and the psychotic break that led to a series of brutal murders in the Atlanta area. Aeman walks listeners through his inner monologue before the killings, the warped logic he believed justified his actions, and the moment of psychological rupture when the “demon” within took over.

Today Nancy Grace and Sheryl McCollum break down how small forensic details like a balaclava, a knife sheath, and an Amazon purchase, can construct a damning mosaic of guilt. Sheryl emphasizes the importance of visual testimony and the nuanced strategies prosecutors must deploy when sequencing their witnesses. Nancy and Sheryl draw parallels from cases like Casey Anthony, Ted Bundy, and Lori Vallow, showing how digital footprints, careless mistakes, and chilling premeditation can expose even the most calculated crimes.

Part 2: On January 26th, 2011, Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her apartment with twenty stab wounds to her head, neck, and back, as well as eleven bruises in various stages of healing on her right arm, leg, and abdomen. The medical examiner initially ruled it a homicide, but after a secret meeting with police, he changed the cause of death to suicide. Ellen's fiancé, Samuel Goldberg, alleged that he had gone down to the gym in their apartment building for 30-45 minutes and was unable to get back into their apartment. He called, texted, and yelled into the apartment before asking the building manager for help getting into the apartment, only to find out the door was latched from the inside. After an hour of this, Sam busted through the door and found Ellen's body on the floor. He called 911, and then he moved on with his life. He's now married with two children and is a sports TV producer. Ellen's parents, Joshua and Sandee Greenberg, fought for justice for 14 years. Just this month of February, they settled two civil cases with the city of Philadelphia and remain devastated and angry over the mishandling of their only child's death. The city of Philadelphia has also agreed the current medical examiner will reopen Ellen's case and, look at the physical and medical evidence of her cause of death and draw their own conclusion. This type of challenge to the medical examiner is unprecedented in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania- and could change state law in the future. Attorney Guy D'Andrea, who personally investigated the case for the Philadelphia DA in 2015, will discuss the huge inconsistencies in the evidence he found at the crime scene and in the autopsy. Our very own Nancy Grace, who has been following the Greenberg's case for months and is releasing a book about Ellen's death, will also join to dissect the case and discuss the relationship she's built with Joshua and Sandee along the way.

In this episode we'll be going through the time period after Casey's arrest on July 16th and before her arraignment on October 14th. We'll also be hearing her jail house visits, the Timer55 Theory, George and Cindy's media interviews and media appearances as well as talking about missing children's cases and how they play out in the media, and meeting a new character of this story Nancy Grace.When we last left off it was July 17th and Casey was booked into The Orange County Jail. She'd been arrested less than 24 hours after her mother Cindy had made three 911 calls, the last one frantically explaining “my granddaughter has been taken she's been missing for a month, my daughter admitted to me she's been missing for a month I just found my daughter But I can't find my granddaughter. I found my daughters car today and it smells like there's been a dead body in the damn car….This is a three year old little girl… I need to find her,” when police arrived Casey explained to them, she had left Caylee with her longterm nanny Zanny 31 days ago at Sawgrass aparmtments, she met Zanny through co-workers and her closest friends at Universal Studios where she'd worked for four years, when the detectives went to Sawgrass Apartment unit 210 had been empty for months; when Casey led detectives to her office at Universal Studios where she worked as a party planner they hit a literal dead end and told detectives “I don't really work here,” she's interrogated and placed under arrest. She gets her one jailhouse phone call asking for her boyfriend's number, the Anthony's do not realize this will later be played on the news, and she aquires Jose Baez as her attorney. Jose Baez writes in his book that one of the State's biggest mistakes was how quickly Casey was arrested, because once she was lawyered up, that was that she was not talking— but both the prosecutor Jeff Ashton and Jose Baez do offer a reason that made sense to them on the swiftness of the arrest, and that reason was a woman named Melinda Duckett.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/broads-next-door--5803223/support.

From Casey's job at Universal Studios, her best friend and co-worker Juliet Lewis, her ex co-worker current lover and Zanny's ex-boyfriend Jeffrey Hopkins. The timeline Casey gives Cindy. The discovery of Casey's car abandoned in an Amscot parking lot. The smell. A computer search for full proof suffocation. The three 911 calls Cindy makes.
