Dave Gunn's book: Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1912885409 Amazon USA: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DKTVFD6H In the early 2000s, Dave Gunn and his brother Colin built a multi-million-pound empire, during a time when Nottingham was labelled Britain's gun crime capital. The second season of Sherwood, the BBC crime drama series, was inspired by the activities of the Gunn Brothers and the deadly crime wave in Nottingham, which earned the city the nickname 'Shottingham.' According to the media, the Gunn Brothers ruled some of the city's suburbs with an iron fist, drove around in flash cars and were dripping in expensive jewellery. They saw themselves as protectors of their manor – a modern-day mix of Robin Hood and the Kray twins. #nottingham #bestwood #podcast #truecrime #prison #uk #news Shaun Attwood's social media: TikTok: / shaunattwood1 / shaunattwood Twitter: / shaunattwood Facebook: / shaunattwood1 Patreon: / shaunattwood Odysee: https://odysee.com/@ShaunAttwood:a 10% OFF SHUTTERS FACTORY with referral code SHAUN link: https://shuttersfactory.uk/ or CALL 0800 197 8807 NORD: Get 4 months extra on a 2 year plan here: https://nordvpn.com/attwood It's risk free with Nord's 30 day money-back guarantee!

In regard to Maxwell, Edwards described her role as central and monstrous — saying she “fed a monster” and that “without Ghislaine's help, Jeffrey Epstein could never have abused more than 500 victims.” He said that Maxwell ought to answer questions fully about her business relationship with Epstein, “to the victims, to law enforcement and to the public,” not simply hide behind her reputation. After her conviction, Edwards hailed the outcome as a sign that “our system works,” noting it was a “major victory” for survivors and that it showed “nobody is above the law.” At the same time he pointed out that her courtroom remarks amounted only to a passive acknowledgement of pain, rather than full accountability.Turning to Prince Andrew, Edwards has been sharper and more accusatory — though he also notes legal constraints around saying more. He has asserted that Andrew's connections to Epstein's network are undeniable and warrant deeper scrutiny, saying Andrew does have information and that the settlement in the civil case does not equate to truth or innocence. In one interview he went as far as suggesting the Prince is “living a life of ridicule for his stupidity” in the way he handled the allegations and the fallout. He emphasized that while the settlement avoided a trial, it still leaves serious questions unanswered about complicity, accountability, and the broader ecosystem of abuse.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
Terrance Williams, a 27-year-old father of four, disappeared in Naples, Florida, on January 12, 2004, after his car broke down and he was last seen with Collier County Sheriff's Deputy Steven Calkins. Calkins claimed to have dropped Williams off at a Circle K, but no evidence supports this, and similar discrepancies arose when Calkins was connected to the disappearance of Felipe Santos, an undocumented immigrant, three months earlier under nearly identical circumstances. Both men were last seen alive in Calkins' custody, and despite failed polygraph tests and inconsistent statements, no criminal charges have been filed against him. Terrance's mother, Marcia Williams, has fought tirelessly to keep the case in the public eye, but nearly two decades later, both cases remain unsolved. Despite ongoing investigations and renewed interest, neither man has been found, leaving their families seeking justice and closure.(commercial at 8:48)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
Prince Andrew's Royal Lodge controversy stems from the fallout of his disastrous ties to Jeffrey Epstein and the long shadow of that scandal. After his 2019 BBC Newsnight interview, which spectacularly backfired, Andrew was stripped of his public roles, military titles, and royal patronages. Once a senior working royal, he became an isolated figure whose financial situation—and entitlement to royal housing—were both thrown into question. Yet, despite his exile from public life, Andrew has continued to occupy the lavish Royal Lodge estate, sparking outrage among critics and frustration within the royal family.The Royal Lodge, a 30-room Georgian mansion sitting on nearly 100 acres in Windsor Great Park, is leased to Andrew on a 75-year agreement for a token rent. Reports suggest the property has fallen into disrepair, needing millions in renovation costs, while King Charles III has allegedly pushed his brother to relocate to the smaller Frogmore Cottage as part of a broader cost-cutting effort. Andrew's refusal to move has become symbolic of his stubborn detachment from reality—clinging to royal privilege while his reputation crumbles. The “Royal Lodge fiasco,” as it's now called, represents not just a housing dispute but a broader public debate over accountability, privilege, and the monarchy's handling of its most disgraced member.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
In early 2021, the Maxwell family launched a website called RealGhislaine.com, which they described as a factual information hub designed to counter what they called “media distortions” about their sister. The family positioned the site as a defense against “character assassination,” featuring photos, statements, and claims that Ghislaine Maxwell was being unfairly treated in U.S. custody. The website portrayed her as a wrongfully targeted woman enduring “cruel and unusual” prison conditions, denied fair bail, and vilified because of her association with Jeffrey Epstein. The site also included a section where her siblings—most vocally Ian and Kevin Maxwell—asserted that she was being used as a scapegoat for the failures of U.S. authorities to properly monitor Epstein before his death. It was a deliberate PR strategy meant to shift attention away from the charges of sex trafficking and conspiracy that had already led to her conviction, reframing her image from enabler to victim.The family's broader campaign extended far beyond the website. They conducted coordinated interviews, published op-eds, and gave statements to outlets like the BBC, The Independent, and The Telegraph, all echoing similar talking points: that Ghislaine's trial was “tainted by media bias,” that she was “denied due process,” and that she was “paying the price for Epstein's crimes.” Critics, including lawyers for Epstein's victims, slammed the PR campaign as tone-deaf and manipulative, accusing the family of whitewashing her crimes and retraumatizing survivors by trying to rewrite the narrative. Victim advocates said the site and interviews were an attempt to maintain Maxwell's social reputation and influence elite opinion, especially in Britain, where the family retained connections in media and politics. Even after her conviction, the family kept the site active and continued issuing statements insisting that her appeal would “expose systemic injustice” rather than re-examine her crimes.to contact me:bobbycapucci@Protonmail.com

Jacob Gray, a 22-year-old experienced outdoorsman, disappeared in Olympic National Park on April 6, 2017, after his bike and belongings were found near the Sol Duc Hot Springs area. Despite extensive search and rescue efforts involving ground teams, aerial reconnaissance, and specialized canine units, no trace of Jacob was found until over a year later, when hikers discovered his remains near the Hoh River, 15 miles from where his gear was initially found. The cause of death remains undetermined due to the decomposition of his remains, leaving his disappearance a mystery. Theories range from an accidental injury or hypothermia to a voluntary disappearance or mental health crisis, but no conclusive evidence has been found. Jacob's case serves as a sobering reminder of the dangers of solo adventuring in remote wilderness areas and the emotional toll on families left without answers.(commercial at 8:42)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
Brandon Swanson, a 19-year-old college student from Minnesota, vanished on May 14, 2008, after his car got stuck in a ditch while he was driving home from a night out with friends. Believing he was near the town of Lynd, Brandon called his parents for help, but despite his directions, they couldn't locate him. Frustrated, he decided to walk toward nearby lights he thought were in Lynd, keeping his father on the phone. Just after 2:30 a.m., he exclaimed, “Oh, shit!” and the line went silent—his last known words.The next day, authorities discovered that Brandon was actually near Porter, about 20 miles from where he believed he was. His car was found, but searches of the surrounding area, including the Yellow Medicine River, revealed no trace of him. Despite extensive searches and numerous theories—including accidental drowning, hypothermia, or foul play—no definitive evidence has surfaced.His parents, devastated by his disappearance, advocated for “Brandon's Law,” which mandates that Minnesota law enforcement treat adult missing person cases with urgency. To this day, the mystery remains unsolved, with his family and the community still holding out hope for closure, haunted by his chilling last words and the lingering mystery of his fate.(commercial at 7:08)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In a televised interview aired in Australia, Bill Gates was pressed about his past association with Jeffrey Epstein and asked whether he regretted having that connection. During the exchange, he acknowledged that he “shouldn't have had dinners” with Epstein, but he adamantly denied there was ever any deeper partnership or formal alignment between Epstein and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Gates maintained that his interactions with Epstein were limited and opportunistic rather than indicative of any ongoing relationship.The interview drew attention because it forced Gates into a defensive posture over years-old ties at a moment when Epstein's legacy remains deeply controversial. He was challenged repeatedly on whether his ex-wife, Melinda, had warned him about Epstein's intentions and whether any philanthropic deals had been discussed—questions he deflected by restating his regret while pushing back on accusations of deeper involvement.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
Two individuals who had accused Jeffrey Epstein of sexual abuse have dropped their civil lawsuits against his associate Ghislaine Maxwell — specifically, one being identified as Jennifer Araoz and another as “Jane Doe VII”. The timing and nature of their dismissals suggest that they may have accepted payments from a victim-compensation fund related to Epstein's estate rather than pursuing their full civil claims in court. The article notes this pattern of dismissals may indicate a broader expectation that claimants who opt into the fund must relinquish the right to sue Maxwell or others connected to Epstein's network.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
The prosecution has presented compelling evidence against Sean "Diddy" Combs on Count One of his federal indictment, which alleges conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. Central to the case are wiretaps, financial records, and testimony from former associates, all of which tie Diddy to a network of criminal activities including drug trafficking, extortion, and illegal weapons possession. These documents show that Diddy used his position in the entertainment industry to facilitate and protect these operations. Witnesses have described how Diddy maintained control over the enterprise, exerting influence over associates to carry out illicit activities while shielding himself from direct involvement. The prosecution also introduced evidence of intimidation and threats against those who attempted to expose or interfere with the organization's activities.In addition, the government has presented forensic evidence linking Diddy to various key figures involved in criminal conduct. Surveillance footage, digital communications, and phone records depict Diddy coordinating with known associates to orchestrate criminal acts. Testimony has pointed to Diddy's role as both a leader and benefactor of the criminal enterprise, showing that he was deeply involved in the day-to-day operations of the illicit network. This combination of wiretaps, digital communications, and witness statements serves to establish a clear pattern of criminal behavior, demonstrating that Diddy was not just a passive bystander but an active participant in the conspiracy, fulfilling the requirements for a RICO violation.As the prosecution wraps up its presentation, the question remains: will the jury be convinced by the extensive evidence linking Sean "Diddy" Combs to the criminal activities outlined in Count One of the RICO indictment, or will they find reasonable doubt in the government's narrative? The weight of wiretaps, financial records, and witness testimony paints a damning picture of Diddy's involvement, but the defense has vigorously challenged the credibility of these claims. As deliberations approach, the jury must decide whether the prosecution has sufficiently proven that Diddy's actions were not just incidental but a central part of a calculated and organized criminal enterprise, or if the evidence falls short of establishing guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
Jeffrey Epstein's network went far beyond trafficking and exploitation—it also included a sophisticated campaign to discredit, intimidate, and obstruct those investigating him. From the mid-2000s through 2019, Epstein and his lawyers waged a relentless public relations and legal offensive designed to undermine victims, stall prosecutors, and silence the press. Court documents and leaked communications reveal that Epstein's inner circle—including Ghislaine Maxwell and his attorneys at firms like Black, Srebnick, Kornspan & Stumpf—used intimidation tactics, private investigators, and smear campaigns to paint accusers as liars or gold diggers. In one series of emails revealed by Bloomberg, Maxwell and Epstein discussed deploying damaging personal rumors to discredit accusers as “unstable” or “untrustworthy,” while threatening defamation suits against media outlets that covered the story. This coordinated effort to manipulate public perception was part of a larger strategy to delegitimize investigations, protect powerful allies, and preserve his social status within elite circles.Epstein also relied on legal obstruction and financial manipulation to blunt scrutiny. He deployed non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), secret settlements, and strategic donations to law enforcement-connected charities to curry favor. Defense teams repeatedly sought to seal or suppress evidence, arguing that revealing details would “prejudice ongoing investigations.” In some cases, Epstein's team even hired former intelligence and law enforcement officials to monitor reporters and intimidate witnesses. His influence extended into the judicial system through his now-infamous 2008 non-prosecution agreement, which effectively shut down a federal probe and silenced dozens of victims. Even after his death, the DOJ and courts have continued to restrict access to key records, citing privacy or “ongoing investigations”—a fact many observers see as a continuation of Epstein's disinformation playbook, protecting those who benefited from his silence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Steven Koecher's disappearance on December 13, 2009, remains one of the most perplexing unsolved mysteries. A devout member of the LDS Church, Koecher was struggling financially and working a modest job when he inexplicably drove to Henderson, Nevada, and was last seen on security footage calmly walking away from his parked car in a suburban neighborhood. Despite extensive searches, no trace of him has ever been found. His abandoned vehicle contained personal belongings, but no signs of foul play. Multiple theories, ranging from foul play to mental health crises or voluntary disappearance, have been proposed, but none offer definitive answers. Over a decade later, his family continues to search for closure, while investigators remain baffled by the total lack of evidence, leaving Koecher's vanishing an enduring mystery.(commercial at 8:34)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
When Alex Acosta sat before Congress to explain himself, what unfolded was less an act of accountability and more a masterclass in bureaucratic self-preservation. He painted the 2008 Epstein plea deal as a “strategic compromise,” claiming a federal trial might have been too risky because victims were “unreliable” and evidence was “thin.” In reality, federal prosecutors had a mountain of corroborating witness statements, corroborative travel logs, and sworn victim testimony—yet Acosta gave Epstein the deal of the century. The so-called non-prosecution agreement wasn't justice; it was a backroom surrender, executed in secrecy, without even notifying the victims. When pressed on this, Acosta spun excuses about legal precedent and “jurisdictional confusion,” never once admitting the obvious: his office protected a rich, politically connected predator at the expense of dozens of trafficked girls.Even more damning was Acosta's insistence that he acted out of pragmatism, not pressure. He denied that anyone “higher up” told him to back off—even though he once told reporters that he'd been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” Under oath, he downplayed that statement, twisting it into bureaucratic double-speak. He even claimed the deal achieved “some level of justice” because Epstein registered as a sex offender—a hollow justification that only exposed how insulated from reality he remains. Acosta never showed remorse for the irreparable damage caused by his cowardice. His congressional testimony reeked of moral rot, the same rot that let a billionaire pedophile walk free while survivors were left to pick up the pieces.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Acosta Transcript.pdf - Google Drive
Nicole Morin, an eight-year-old girl from Toronto, vanished without a trace on July 30, 1985, while on her way to meet a friend for a swim in her apartment complex's pool. Despite an extensive search involving hundreds of police officers, volunteers, helicopters, and media coverage, no evidence or witnesses were found, making her disappearance one of Canada's most perplexing unsolved mysteries. Various theories emerged, ranging from abduction by someone with access to the building to a predator lurking nearby, but none led to significant breakthroughs. Nicole's family and law enforcement never gave up hope, and modern efforts, including age-progression technology and DNA testing, have kept the case alive, though her fate remains unknown nearly four decades later.

He painted the 2008 Epstein plea deal as a “strategic compromise,” claiming a federal trial might have been too risky because victims were “unreliable” and evidence was “thin.” In reality, federal prosecutors had a mountain of corroborating witness statements, corroborative travel logs, and sworn victim testimony—yet Acosta gave Epstein the deal of the century. The so-called non-prosecution agreement wasn't justice; it was a backroom surrender, executed in secrecy, without even notifying the victims. When pressed on this, Acosta spun excuses about legal precedent and “jurisdictional confusion,” never once admitting the obvious: his office protected a rich, politically connected predator at the expense of dozens of trafficked girls.Even more damning was Acosta's insistence that he acted out of pragmatism, not pressure. He denied that anyone “higher up” told him to back off—even though he once told reporters that he'd been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” Under oath, he downplayed that statement, twisting it into bureaucratic double-speak. He even claimed the deal achieved “some level of justice” because Epstein registered as a sex offender—a hollow justification that only exposed how insulated from reality he remains. Acosta never showed remorse for the irreparable damage caused by his cowardice. His congressional testimony reeked of moral rot, the same rot that let a billionaire pedophile walk free while survivors were left to pick up the pieces.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Acosta Transcript.pdf - Google Drive

Sink your teeth into our second tale of one of New Orleans' darkest vampire legends: the Carter Brothers. Dockworkers by day, blood-drinkers by night, these two anomalies still haunt the streets of the French Quarter, with their 1932 case of vampiric crime, courtroom drama, and mysterious vanishings that blurred the line between fact and folklore. From vanished bodies to mental health myths and Anne Rice parallels, this one's part history, part hysteria, and all haunt. Perfect part deaux for this spooky season!Edited by Maxwell Holechek
This week, in Grafton, Vermont, a couple attempts to help an odd pair of hitchhikers pull their truck out of the mud, only to end up drinking, hanging out, and ending up brutally murdered. They are found in the strangest positions that dead bodies could be placed. Detectives want to track down these hitchikers, but the pair show up back at the murder scene, not expecting police to already be there, and start blaming each other! Somehow, it then gets even crazier! Along the way, we find out that fairy houses just mey be for kids, that when you're wearing a "Fat Albert" t shirt, people take notice, and that "I only killed them a little" is a terrible excuse for being part of a murder team!!

Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Caroline Fraser joins "Mind Over Murder" co-hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley to discuss her new book "Murderland: Crime and Bloodlust in the Time of Serial Killers." The work explores the provocative premise that environmental toxins may have led men living in the Pacific Northwest to become serial killers. Could a poisonous mix of lead, copper and arsenic fumes spewing out of a massive industrial smelting plant in Tacoma, Washington have impacted those living in its shadow?

John J. Lennon is a prison journalist who is currently serving a 25-year sentence in Sing Sing prison in New York. His work has been featured by such leading publications as New York Review of Books, The New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic, Esquire, Rolling Stone, and New York magazine. John's new book is The Tragedy of True Crime. John shares his surreal experience of being on a book tour while inside prison and reflects on his own personal experiences with the "true crime" genre. He also warns about the seductive nature -- and problematic relationship these shows have with reality -- of The First 48, Law and Order, Cops, and others in the reality TV show - crime entertainment genre. John explains how his new book goes beyond the sensationalistic headlines and explores the human side and complexity of four men who have been convicted of murder. Robert Chambers, the so-called “Preppy Killer” of 1980s tabloid fame Milton E. Jones, drawn from petty crime into tragedy as a teenager Michael Shane Hale, a gay man facing the death penalty after a crime of passion Lennon himself, who discovered his voice as a writer while serving time for murder Chauncey DeVega shares what it is like in Chicago as Trump's DHS/ICE immigration dragnet "Operation Midway Blitz" and threats of a National Guard "invasion” have created a climate that feels ripped from a bad dystopian movie. To better understand who would want to take a job working for DHS/ICE as one of its enforcers, Chauncey shares a very important news story from the Intercept where they interview people at a job fair for that government agency. And Chauncey DeVega goes to the local cineplex and reviews three new films: Tron: Ares, The Smashing Machine starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and Paul Thomas Anderson's essential document and cultural artifact of this era One Battle After Another.

Federal authorities allege that the ring busted for running illegal sports and card-games used highly advanced and coordinated cheating technology. In the poker portion of the scheme, underground high-stakes games were manipulated using rigged shuffling machines that secretly read the deck's cards and transmitted which players held strong hands to an off-site operator, who then signaled a co-conspirator at the table (called the “quarterback” or “driver”) to direct bets accordingly. Devices included poker tables equipped with hidden X-ray cameras beneath the felt to identify face-down cards, chip trays with built-in analyzers/cameras, decoy cellphones to relay information, and decks marked so that only accomplices wearing special lenses or glasses could see the marks.In the sports-betting arm of the investigation, insiders harvested and sold non-public information about professional basketball players' injuries, playing time, and game-day decisions. Players or coaches allegedly tipped off conspirators to when they would sit out or exit early due to an injury, creating prop-bet opportunities. Wagers were placed accordingly on unders or player performance outcomes, using insider info to create a virtually guaranteed edge. The two schemes overlapped, involving organized-crime networks, professional athletes, and complex laundering of ill-gotten proceeds.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:How mafiosi and NBA stars used rigged card shufflers, X-ray tables and secret contact lenses in poker scam
When Judge Alison Nathan ordered the defense to submit its potential witness roster before trial, Maxwell's lawyers presented a sprawling list of over 30 witnesses, some of them overseas, including former assistants, social friends, employees, and at least one member of Epstein's inner circle like Eva Andersson-Dubin (the former Miss Sweden and wife of billionaire Glenn Dubin). The list even included several individuals who had been named in press reports or depositions as having seen Epstein's conduct firsthand. The defense also proposed “character witnesses” meant to paint Maxwell as a victim of selective prosecution and an unfair press, and they floated calling experts in psychology, law enforcement procedure, and even media ethics. But when the trial began, almost the entire roster evaporated. Out of more than 30 potential names, only nine actually took the stand, and many of those offered procedural or character evidence rather than firsthand accounts.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
On this edition of Parallax Views, we continue our Halloween “spooky season” series with an episode exploring how true crime stories—particularly those involving serial killers—are brought to life on screen. Screenwriter Stephen Johnston joins the show to discuss the process of writing films about notorious figures like Ed Gein, Ted Bundy, and The Hillside Stranglers (Angelo Buono and Kenneth Bianchi). Johnston's screenwriting credits include Chuck Parello's Ed Gein (2000; aka In the Light of the Moon), starring Steve Railsback (known for his portrayal of Charles Manson in the 1976 TV film Helter Skelter) and Carrie Snodgress (Diary of a Mad Housewife); Matthew Bright's darkly comic and controversial Ted Bundy (2002); and Parello's The Hillside Strangler (2004), featuring C. Thomas Howell (Red Dawn) and Nicolas Turturro (NYPD Blue). Most recently, Johnston wrote the screenplay for Chad Ferrin's Ed Kemper, a biopic about “The Co-Ed Killer” that received its video-on-demand (VOD) release earlier this year.
This week, in Poteau, Oklahoma, when murders begin happening, all over the area, including an older man, several women, and a popular local newscaster , it isn't clear if they're connected, at first.

When they finally find him, he has a lot to say, and all of it is crazy, including detailed confessions of all the crimes!

A gifted college student vanishes on a snowy New Hampshire road. Dr. Phil unravels the haunting mystery of what happened to Maura Murray. In this part 1 of Into Thin Air: The Mysterious Disappearance of Maura Murray | Mystery and Murder: Analysis by Dr. Phil, Dr. Phil investigates one of America's most baffling disappearances the 2004 case of Maura Murray, a 21-year-old nursing student who vanished after a late-night crash on a snowy New Hampshire road. Rather than retelling the mystery, Dr. Phil dissects Maura's state of mind: the emotional collapse after a troubling phone call, the lies about a “death in the family,” and the sudden trip north that ended in silence. Drawing on decades of clinical experience, he explains how perfectionism, fear, and shame can drive impulsive flight behavior and how stress can make even rational people act in ways that defy logic. Dr. Phil analyzes the psychology behind her choices, the investigative blind spots, and the unreliable witness memories that clouded the case. Was Maura trying to escape her life, or did she encounter someone who didn't want her found? Two decades later, her story still haunts investigators—and reveals how human behavior can hold the key to truth.

Are you an OBSESSED CRIME JUNKIE like us? We love true crime! Welcome to Get Obsessed, where we go deep, dark, and disturbingly curious. Host Julie Lokun, JD, confesses what millions secretly feel: an unshakable obsession with true crime. This isn't your casual Dateline-before-bed fascination.
