Timestamps (10:18) - Updates (22:00) - Kada Scott Kada Scott (23) drove to her overnight shift at an assisted living facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on October 4, 2025.   When she did not arrive home the following morning, her parents raised the alarm. For weeks, authorities would search for Kada.  A man named Keon King (21) would turn himself into police after police determined that he had been communicating with Kada prior to her disappearance. On October 18, 2025, an anonymous tipster called in information about the case and Kada's remains were found in a shallow grave.  Her cause of death was determined to be a gunshot to the head and Keon has now been charged with murder.  Read our blog for Kada https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2025/11/02/the-murder-of-kada-scott/ Also in this episode, we run through some updates on cases we have previously covered: Caitlin Tracey's husband Adam Beckerink has been charged with her murder.

The partnership aims to modernise ABB's global hosting operations, simplify its IT landscape, and strengthen its digital foundation to drive resilience and innovation. As part of this multi-year engagement, TCS will operationalise ABB's Future Hosting Model, a next-generation modular IT infrastructure designed to streamline systems. This model will enable predictive operations, faster service restoration, and continuous security assurance through its AI-powered Zero Ops framework. This extension strengthens a trusted collaboration that has already delivered significant progress for ABB.

Together, we embark on a transformative journey to build a platform-driven core that will unlock unprecedented levels of efficiency, autonomy, and innovation for ABB's global business." TCS's operational and industry expertise combined with ABB's platforms, security, and reliability will create a foundation that is resilient, efficient, and future-ready. Further, TCS' managed services platform architecture will enable flexibility in ABB's business integration needs across mergers, acquisitions, and carve-outs.

In this episode of The Brian Icenhower Podcast, we dive into one of the biggest growth challenges for real estate agents and teams: choosing between hiring a transaction coordinator (TC) and an administrative assistant. While many agents lean toward TCs because the cost comes directly from closings, Brian explains why top-producing agents and large teams invest in admin support instead—and how that decision fuels long-term growth. You'll learn: The key differences between a transaction coordinator and a true admin. Why admins don't just save you time—they generate more revenue and elevate client service. The four major roles admins can play: listing manager, transaction coordinator, marketing director, and administrative manager. How to train and layer responsibilities as your business scales. Why relying solely on TCs can hold your team back, while admin systems create scalability and better client experiences. If you're serious about building a business that runs smoothly and grows beyond your personal production, this conversation will give you a clear roadmap for leveraging admin support to take your team to the next level.   Book a FREE coaching call: http://CoachCallFree.com Enroll in our online courses: http://www.IcenhowerInstitute.com Sign up for coaching: http://www.IcenhowerCoaching.com Sign up for an Agent Management Portal: http://AgentManagementPortal.com Join the fastest growing Facebook Group for Top Producers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/REagentRoundTable

To unpack the decision to appoint an advisory board, TechCentral is joined in this episode of TCS+ by Videsha Proothveerajh, director of Vodacom Business, who explains that it's all part of Vodacom's shift from being a traditional telecommunications provider to a “techco”, or technology company.

Timestamps: (5:10) - Chance Englebert Update (11:15) - Cari Farver Dave Kroupa and Cari Farver hit it off immediately on the day that Cari took her vehicle into Dave's auto repair shop in Nebraska in 2012.  They began seeing each other and both agreed that they only wanted a casual relationship.  Dave had been seeing another woman named Liz Golyar prior to meeting Cari.  When Cari was given a job opportunity close to Dave's home, he offered for her to stay with him to make her commute easier.  Cari accepted and the two continued their easy-going relationship. One day in November 2012, Cari seemingly changed.   She started sending Dave possessive and obsessive messages and he decided to end things, saying he had dodged a bullet. The messages kept coming, sometimes hundreds per week.  Despite the electronic communications being sent, Cari's family were becoming increasingly worried as they were unable to get in touch with her.   After she failed to show up to her father's funeral, they reported her missing. Cari's alleged harassment of Dave went on for years. Police eventually began to investigate and what would unravel is one of the most bizarre cases we can recall.   It was discovered that Liz Golyar (the woman Dave had previously been seeing) was behind the messages and years of harassment.  It was also discovered that she had murdered Cari and disposed of her body. As of October 2025, Cari's remains have not been found.

In today's hyperconnected society, mobile connectivity is key to running a successful business, helping keep employees connected to each other, to organisational resources and to customers. To manage communications effectively, businesses need to have a clear view of the entire Sim estate across the organisation. Monitoring usage and having the control needed to provide (or restrict) resources such as voice minutes and data quickly and easily are critical to managing costs effectively. MSB Micro Systems is a company specialising in managed network connectivity for corporate entities. In this episode of TechCentral's TCS+, MSB Microsystems founder and CEO Danny Stemmet talks about the ins and outs of Sim management. Stemmet delves into: • MSB Micro's history and how the company changed from being a software development house to a services company; • How the rise of hybrid work environments and remote teams have affected demand for Sim management services, especially among mobile workforces; • How MSB Micro Systems supports Sims that perform machine-to-machine communications and other internet-of-things functions; • How MSB's network-agnostic approach provides flexibility its resellers and, by extension, their clients; • How MSB's pricing model supports businesses at every stage growth, helping them scale appropriately when they need to; • The key benefits for a company that chooses to use a managed connectivity service rather than managing their mobile estate directly with an operator; and • Why MSB Micro is changing its business model from being a managed service provider to a platform business.

When most people think of Amazon Web Services, they automatically assume they should go directly to AWS. However, for the diverse ecosystem of AWS partners – including managed service providers and independent software vendors – the real secret to achieving significant growth often lies in leveraging the distributor model. Consider this analogy: if AWS is a powerful cloud engine, then the reseller acts as the skilled driver. But who manages the complexities of operating the vehicle, such as maintenance, refuelling, training and necessary pit stops? That administrative heavy lifting falls to the distributor. In this episode of TCS+, Senzo Mbhele, MD at Cloud On Demand, explains the AWS distribution model and its advantages. Mbhele discusses: • The main business challenges that the AWS distribution model addresses; • How distributors create financial value and improve return on investment for others in the ecosystem, including end customers; • The support distribution partners provide to internal teams, enabling them to achieve more without the need to hire additional staff; • The expertise distributors offer to help chief information officers and chief technology officers manage risk, security and governance throughout their cloud journey; • Common misconceptions that may cause executives to hesitate before partnering with a distributor; and • Indicators that suggest it might be time for a business to consider the services of a distribution partner, along with the benefits this can bring.

On today show, we are talking about the impact of the newly announced $100,000 fee associated with the H1B visa to the United States. According to my research, historically the United States had admitted 65,000 H1 B visas per year with an additional 20,000 visa for those holding advanced US degrees.Anytime there is a major policy shift. The marketplace will adapt and find a new way to optimize the allocation of talent. Silicon Valley was cited as one of the Main reasons for the policy change.The tech industry has seen significant layoffs over the past year. Companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Facebook have all released tens of thousands over the past year.The policy change will probably see some of those laid off workers getting rehired and those international workers covered by a visa, now a very expensive visa, being sent home to their country of origin.The largest user of H1B visas is Amazon with over 14,600 visa holders. At $100,000 a year each, this would cost an additional $1.4B in fees to the US government. I personally would be surprise if any company would just roll over and pay for an additional $1.4B in fees. The top users are Amazon, TCS from India with about 5500, Microsoft with a little over 5100, Meta with about 5100.Even Walmart has about 2400. I would bet that Walmart would move those positions to their software design center in Toronto or Ottawa and save $239M dollars with zero loss of productivity. When I ran an engineering organization, we did not use the H1B Visa program to import labour per se. We used the program to bring a few people from some of the remote design centres and immerse them in the culture in our Sunnyvale office so that they could in turn cross pollinate the culture across the organization. It gave that individual a foreign expat assignment and at the same time improved the cohesiveness between the different design centres around the world. They would later return to their remote design centre. I personally believe that the use of the H1B Visa will drop to nearly zero with the imposition of this new policy. That means another 100,000 people in high paying jobs will likely leave the US. These people will probably continue to work for the same company from their country of origin, if they are an individual contributor. If they are in a managerial role, then the relationship gets more complicated. I truly can't think of too many companies that will be willing to pay that $100,000 fee for the visa. This year 2025 was the first year in which US population has shrunk in almost 100 years. Shrinking population means a shrinking economy, especially when you consider that 70% of the GDP is based on consumption. ----------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

A new study by Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a global leader in IT services, consulting, and business solutions and operating a Global Delivery Centre in Ireland, reveals that 1 in 3 aerospace executives believe artificial intelligence (AI) for real-time decision-making will be the biggest driver of change in aircraft manufacturing by 2035. The TCS Future-Ready Skies Study 2025 examines how aerospace companies are preparing for a digitally enabled and AI-powered future across manufacturing, maintenance, mobility, and supply chains. The report captures an industry in transition, with companies increasingly investing in intelligent, sustainable operations. It highlights how manufacturers expect human involvement to remain essential in 60% of their production processes, on average, reinforcing a hybrid future where human expertise and AI work together. While AI leads the charge, aerospace executives also identified digital twins and robotics as the key enablers for transformation. The study surveyed over 323 senior aerospace executives, including aerospace manufacturers, Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) companies, Manufacturing, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) providers, and electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) companies across Europe and North America. With the aerospace market projected to surpass $1 trillion by 2030, and the MRO segment alone expected to reach $137 billion, the study offers a crucial pulse check on where the industry stands and a look into the future. It also aligns with key developments such as the anticipated certification of eVTOL aircraft and the increasing regulatory and operational complexity across global supply chains. Steve Lucas, Chairman and CEO, Boomi, said, "The Future-Ready Skies Study shows that the aerospace industry is at an inflection point where the promise of AI depends on getting the fundamentals right. Change only happens, however, at the speed of trust and that trust begins with data. Agentic AI can only succeed when it's built on a strong foundation of connected, reliable data. By integrating and connecting everything across their complex ecosystems, companies can accelerate decisions, scale innovation, and turn complexity into a true competitive advantage." Key takeaways from the survey: A striking 63% of aerospace executives are open to adopting agentic AI to manage supply chains, but only 6% currently do so, underscoring both readiness and the innovation gap. On average, respondents anticipate only 40% of their manufacturing operations to be lights out (a manufacturing process that uses a high level of automation), requiring minimal human intervention, within the next 5-7 years. Over half (51%) of MRO providers, on average, anticipate a return on investment in advanced technology in five years or sooner, with nearly two-thirds (64%) expecting predictive analytics and agentic AI to deliver measurable ROI in that same timeframe. Only a third (34%) of AAM companies cited "public acceptance" as an obstacle to such services as urban air taxis; in fact, 70% are already building commercial platforms, reflecting industry momentum. Just 5% of MRO executives say their digital MRO strategy is already sufficiently scaled for the industry's next phase. For the rest, 80% anticipate a negative impact from rising operational costs, increased downtime, revenue, and customer churn if their digital MRO strategies fail to scale in the next three years. Digital thread integration is underway, with 59% of manufacturers reporting at least partial implementation, though full lifecycle integration remains elusive. Anupam Singhal, President, Manufacturing, TCS, said, "The aerospace industry has always been one where ambition is matched by precision and safety. Today, ambition is redefined as AI moves from supporting operations to shaping enterprise strategy - advancing passenger experience, safety, and sustainability. At TCS, we see this as a leadership opportunity to help aerospace enterprises build resi...

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a global leader in IT services, consulting, and business solutions, which operates a Global Delivery Centre in Ireland, has been featured in a report that advocates for and puts emphasis on marketing as a function to lead the charge on achieving sustainability goals. 'CMO Blueprint for Sustainable Growth' interviewed Chief Marketing Officers (CMOs) across sectors and identified 10 case studies that demonstrate the various ways in which brand custodians have furthered the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals of companies. The study spotlights ReScore, a cloud-based app that helps sporting event organisers measure and reduce their impact on the environment year on year. Commissioned by the Council for Responsible Sport, ReScore was developed by TCS as part of its broader commitment to advancing sustainable practices and climate-conscious innovation as part of the company's CSR initiative 'Sadhana SamarpaN'. Sadhana's vision of 'Only One Liveable Pl'A'net - with No Plan B: Live Sustainably, Leave No One Behind' calls for both individual and collective action across the eight Sustainable Development Goals. ReScore is among the ten interventions by large corporates in driving the adoption of responsible practices in terms of climate change and undertaking green initiatives. The report draws attention to the efforts of the TCS team in building the framework for ReScore, collaborating with cross-functional internal and external stakeholders and championing the integration of the app in other partner events and the wider sports ecosystem. The study says that TCS demonstrates how responsible marketing, and technology can drive meaningful and measurable change. Abhinav Kumar, Chief Marketing Officer, Tata Consultancy Services, said, "We are immensely proud to be featured in this report that highlights the pivotal role of marketing, communications, media, brand strategy, and innovation in achieving sustainable growth. This recognition is a testament to our commitment to driving positive change through innovative solutions like ReScore. It is true that CMOs are uniquely positioned in helping drive societal change. Marketing leaders can change perceptions, reshape behaviour and prioritise creating long-term value for the community without losing focus on business goals. At TCS, we believe that marketing is a powerful force for good, and we are dedicated to continuing our journey towards a more sustainable future." The report reveals that while 91 per cent of CEOs believe their role includes protecting the communities in which they operate, and 70 per cent see it as their responsibility to speak out on pressing societal issues, they are stretched thin and need their executive teams - especially their CMOs - to meet these rising expectations. This calls for the marketing function to move from intention to action - from storytelling to 'storydoing'. The company, which supports 14 major running events globally, believes that sponsorships are not just about visibility - they are an opportunity to support and become responsible members of these local communities. Developing ReScore is part of TCS' commitment to bringing rigorous measurement and accountability to this multi-billion-dollar sector. Anupam Singhal, President - Manufacturing, TCS, said, "The ReScore app being featured in the UN Global Compact's CMO Blueprint for Sustainable Growth is a meaningful recognition of our commitment to sustainability through purposeful innovation. ReScore represents more than just a digital solution - it reflects TCS's belief in marketing and technology as forces for societal good. It is our way of contributing to more accountable, transparent, and future-ready communities, in the true spirit of Sadhana SamarpaN (dedication and devotion)." Highlighting the role ReScore has had on sporting events holding themselves to higher sustainability standards, the study noted that in just two years, ReScore helped 53 events and org...

Skip straight to the case: (10:35) In October 2024, six members of the Humiston family were sleeping peacefully in their beds in Fall City, Washington.   Parents Sarah and Mark lived in a beautiful lake-front home with their five children - aged between 7 and 15. Sarah and Mark had been having some troubles with their eldest son, who we will call  ‘A'.   He had been caught viewing inappropriate images online and had been struggling with his school work.   On October 21, 2024, A retrieved a gun from the family's gun safe.   He then allegedly shot every single member of his family.  He believed they were all dead and he called 911.  He told dispatchers that his younger brother Benjamin had carried out the massacre before taking his own life. A was incorrect in thinking that his whole family was dead.   His 11 y/o sister had played dead after he shot her and she managed to run to a neighboring property to ask for help.  She told authorities the true story.    In August 2025, new court documents were filed that indicate the Humiston parents were controlling and isolated their children from the community.   “A common theme that has been expressed amongst extended family, neighbors, and those who knew the Humistons is that the children were isolated from the outside world and did not engage socially with many peers – only a select few families that went to their church and were friends of their family,” court documents say. “Furthermore, initial reports indicate the home was abusive, tightly controlled, and dominated by extreme religious beliefs.” A has been charged with five counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder.   A debate is currently ongoing in the legal system to determine if he will be tried as an adult or a juvenile.

The U.S. economy is demonstrating resilience with strong consumer spending and low unemployment filings, despite looming inflation and tariff pressures. Retail sales rose by 0.6% in June, surpassing expectations and indicating solid growth in gross domestic product for the second quarter. However, concerns about rising import costs, which saw their largest monthly increase in over a year, continue to cast a shadow over the economic outlook. While manufacturers anticipate growth and increased hiring, the uncertainty surrounding tariffs remains a significant concern.IBM's CEO, Arvind Krishna, argues that fears of artificial intelligence (AI) eliminating jobs are exaggerated, suggesting that AI will actually enhance employment opportunities by increasing productivity. He notes that while some clerical roles may be phased out, new job creation will occur in programming and sales. Meanwhile, Gartner forecasts a substantial rise in global IT spending, projected to reach $5.43 trillion in 2025, driven largely by investments in AI infrastructure. This shift indicates a growing trend where companies must adapt to the changing landscape or risk being left behind.The podcast also discusses recent layoffs at major tech firms, including Microsoft, Tata Consultancy Services, and Intel, as they navigate the challenges posed by AI and automation. Microsoft has laid off approximately 9,000 employees while reporting significant revenue growth, highlighting the paradox of job cuts amid financial success. Similarly, TCS plans to cut 12,000 jobs, primarily affecting senior and mid-level positions, as clients demand AI-driven services and cost reductions. This trend underscores the rapid transformation of the workforce as companies pivot towards automation and higher-margin activities.Legislative updates include the Federal Communications Commission's review of state laws on AI, aimed at reducing regulations to promote American AI systems. Critics argue that this approach lacks a comprehensive vision for AI innovation. In the UK, a court has denied WhatsApp's intervention in a case involving Apple's compliance with government orders to access encrypted data, raising concerns about privacy. Additionally, New York has announced stricter cybersecurity regulations for water utilities, emphasizing the need for enhanced security measures in critical infrastructure. These developments reflect a broader struggle between regulatory frameworks and the fast-evolving tech landscape. Four things to know today 00:00 U.S. Economy Grows Steadily as AI Reshapes Labor and IT Spend Soars to $5.43 Trillion04:45 Global Policy Divide on AI and Cybersecurity Widens as U.S., UK, and New York Take Conflicting Regulatory Paths07:54 Layoffs Mount Across Tech and Services as AI Drives Shift Toward Margin, Not Manpower12:09 Intel Restructures for AI Future with Major Layoffs, Factory Slowdown, and Network Division Spinoff Supported by:  https://scalepad.com/dave/ https://businessof.tech/sponsor/moovila/  Tell us about a newsletter!https://bit.ly/biztechnewsletter All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Timestamps: (7:58) - Stockdale Family In 2008, the Stockdale family from Ohio appeared on the reality TV show ‘Wife Swap.'  Kathy and Timothy Stockdale were raising their four sons in a very strict, conservative manner.   This is an excerpt from the family manual Kathy prepared for ‘Wife Swap.'  We moved to the country to get the boys away from the city. Our children are being raised away from violent language, sexual influences, drinking, smoking, drugs, rap music all the things we left behind in the city. Instead we are raising our children on a diet of wholesome activities and farm work; keeping their minds pure and their bodies healthy and keeping out the influences of modern society. That is why we home-school. By 2017, two of the children remained in the family home - Jacob and James.  One day that year, while Timothy was at work, Jacob fatally shot his brother James and his mother Kathy.   He then attempted to take his own life by shooting himself in the head.  He survived and was hospitalised for many months. After he recovered, Jacob was charged with the murders of his mother and brother.   No motive for the killings has ever been revealed. In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the murder/suicide involving the Stockdale family from ‘Wife Swap.'
