POPULARITY
This week on our iced-out, diamond-drenched Part One episode, we're deep in glamorous chaos with Miami queen and former Real Housewives of Miami star, Lea Black, inside the Palazzo Suite. Draped in diamonds and flanked by bodyguards, Lea drops jaw-dropping stories—from her Texas roots and Beverly Hills nights to jury duty fatefully leading her to powerhouse attorney (and future husband) Roy Black. She opens up about building a beauty empire, her philanthropic passion, and how she's helping families achieve home ownership—all while serving lewks and legacy. Lea dishes on revamping Roy's office (and image), transforming him into a legal media star who went on to defend clients like Rush Limbaugh, Kelsey Grammer, William Kennedy Smith, and Marv Albert. From courtroom dramas to reality TV chaos, nothing's off-limits. Oh, and her bling? Iconic. Her first bank loan at 18? Spent on a diamond. Now she's teasing a Lea Black Jewelry Line with dupe-worthy dazzlers for stylish socialites everywhere. Pol' reads Lea's Armenian coffee cup and sees big moves ahead—reviving her iconic skincare line and selling designer treasures for charity. “I love seeing people thrive,” she says, revealing a heart as big as her rock collection. And yes, the Housewives tea is scalding. Lea spills on how she was never meant to be a full-time cast member, and how producers roped her in after Joe Francis name-dropped her at a taping. She recalls betrayal at the reunion, behind-the-scenes scripting, and castmates who turned cruel once cameras rolled. Her response? “That might've been for the show for you—but not for me.” She calls out “trash over class” casting, confirms friendships with Joanna Krupa, Lisa Hochstein, Karen Sierra, and Anna Kournikova, and praises Teresa Giudice's legendary table flip. There's even a royal roast: Lea muses on William, Kate, Charles, Camilla, Harry, and Meghan, cheekily wondering if the real crisis is PR—not cancer. Plus: Lea weighs in on Jeff Lewis's new man, bougie husbands, COVID-era luxury, the power of a great handbag, and Chump Nation's coffee-reading obsession. From Real Housewife to real-deal philanthropist, Lea Black proves you can wear couture and still care. This is another Hurrdat Media Production.

Jeffrey Epstein assembled a legal defense team that was nothing short of an all-star roster of high-powered attorneys, leveraging their influence, connections, and expertise to shield him from accountability for years. His legal team included prominent figures such as Alan Dershowitz, a Harvard Law professor and constitutional expert, who played a key role in negotiating Epstein's highly controversial 2008 plea deal, which resulted in a lenient sentence despite overwhelming evidence of his crimes. Another heavyweight was Kenneth Starr, the former independent counsel best known for investigating President Bill Clinton, who joined Epstein's defense during his legal battles. Additionally, Roy Black, a renowned criminal defense attorney famous for representing high-profile clients such as William Kennedy Smith, provided legal expertise in Epstein's cases, further ensuring he had the best legal minds at his disposal.Beyond these high-profile names, Epstein's legal team also included former U.S. attorneys and politically connected lawyers who worked aggressively behind the scenes to secure deals, intimidate accusers, and minimize public scrutiny. Former Miami U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta, who later became Secretary of Labor, played a pivotal role in orchestrating the infamous non-prosecution agreement that shielded Epstein and his co-conspirators from serious federal charges. Other attorneys, including Jay Lefkowitz and Martin Weinberg, specialized in complex criminal defense and used every legal avenue to protect Epstein from exposure. This elite team, with its deep ties to law enforcement and the judicial system, managed to keep Epstein's crimes hidden for years, allowing him to continue operating with impunity until public pressure finally led to his arrest in 2019.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

This week, we travel alongside Dominick Dunne on a quest for justice in the murder of Martha Moxley, slain in the exclusive enclave of Greenwich, Connecticut, on October 30, 1975. The investigation was dormant for almost two decades, but our man Nick gets a whiff of a bigger mystery during the rape trial of William Kennedy Smith in 1991. With his curiosity aroused, Dunne begins his own investigation, resulting in his 1993 novel A Season in Purgatory, a fictional telling of the crime. But Dunne hadn't really solved anything. With the help of a confidential informant, Dunne has access to the Sutton Report – the file the Skakel family never wants seen. Dunne is going to make sure someone sees that report to continue the journey for justice for Martha. That person is former LAPD detective Mark Fuhrman. Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on Patreon! To advertise on Done & Dunne, please reach out to info@amplitudemediapartners.com.

Dan Webb talks about cross examining a former President (Ronald Reagan), prosecuting Jussie Smollett, key cross-examination strategies, and of course, his love for Chicago. Only on Killer Cross Examination. If the Lord picked a lawyer to defend a case, there is a pretty good chance that Dan Webb is on the short list of lawyers who'd get the call. His credentials are impeccable. It has been said about Webb that he is one of the "11 lawyers you definitely don't want to see across the aisle, the #1 litigator in the US, a "stunningly good trial lawyer" and "one of the most formidable courtroom lawyers in America today." What's more, he's brutally honest about what trials are about - winning. Not moral victories, not keeping juries out, not defending the rights of the accused … winning. And, Dan Webb knows how to win. It is no wonder that his client list reads like a Who's Who — Kwame Kilpatrick, Bill Gates, former Governor of Ililnois George Ryan, former Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr., former Congressman Dan Rostenkowski and William Kennedy Smith to name a few. He represents a Russian Oligarch and if you think he's above prosecuting someone, he's not. He was a United States Attorney and he recently prosecuted Jussie Smollett, the actor who was convicted of disorderly person and false report of a mugging and did so, according to him, to restore the integrity of the Chicago justice system. Webb is a cross examination master.
“You can't handle the truth”, the famous response elicited from fictional Lt Colonel Nathan Jessup on cross examination by the character played by Tom Cruise to this day remains the quintessential “gotcha” moment in a trial. A cross examination so good that it broke the witness, cracked the case and freed the accused. Popular shows, documentaries, movies and docudramas all focus on this type of cross examination moment - moments created by the dynamic exchange between lawyers and witnesses. In 2021, my podcast the Killer Cross Examination Podcast, featured some of the best, most well known and iconic lawyers in the country. The lawyers who joined me included lawyers who defended OJ Simpson, Michael Jackson, Bill Cosby, George Zimmerman, Phil Spector, Steve Avery, Charlie Sheen, John Gotti, Jr., William Kennedy Smith, Chris Webber, Casey Anthony and Michael Peterson to name a few. From A-Z, Anne Bremner to Jack Zimmermann, I interviewed my peers, the lawyers who the writers try to copy and emulate when they write the scripts for the Netflix shows. Unscripted, uncensored and more. As we say hello to 2022, I also bid farewell to F. Lee Bailey, who pointing a finger at me said, “I know a great trial lawyer when I see one.” Here are some excerpts from 2021 from the Killer Cross Examination Podcast featuring yours truly, F Lee Bailey, and other iconic lawyers, e.g., Tom Mesereau, Alan Dershowitz, Mark Geragos, Linda Kenney Baden, and more.

Today's Guest: Chuck Workman, Stephen J. Kern, documentary film producers, In Search of Kennedy In Search of Kennedy, a documentary film by Chuck Workman and Stephen J. Kern. Order your copy now by clicking on the film poster above! If MTV edited a presidential campaign video, it would probably look and feel a bit like In Search of Kennedy, a new documentary film by Chuck Workman and Stephen J. Kern. The movie applies a 21st century sheen to the most iconic of 20th century political figures, John F. Kennedy. It is incredibly au currant, with the 2008 Democratic references narrowed down to Obama and Clinton. The movie - which reminds us that, in 2000, even George W. Bush was sold to the American public as being Kennedy-like! - is crammed with familiar faces interviewed expressly for this project, including Norman Mailer, Tom Hayden, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Michael Moore, Garrison Keillor, Chris Matthews, Arianna Huffington and Senators Edward Kennedy, Joseph Biden and Chris Dodd. Alec Baldwin and Elisabeth Peña speak the words of prominent writers. Workman, who wrote and directed In Search of Kennedy over a three-year period, received his Oscar® for his live action short “Precious Images.” Previously, Workman produced and directed two critically acclaimed theatrical documentaries, on two other ‘60s icons, Superstar: The Life and Times of Andy Warhol (1990) and The Source, (1999) about the Beat Generation and Jack Kerouac. One of the things that may surprise people is that this isn’t just a recitation of JFK’s greatest hits. It is a warts-and-all presentation of Jack and all the Kennedys, from the Bay of Pigs and Marilyn Monroe to Chappaquidick and William Kennedy Smith. Whether you’re a Kennedy fan or just a political junkie, you’ll no doubt find In Search of Kennedy provocative and entertaining. John F. Kennedy John F.

In the first legal history course I took as an undergraduate, I read Lawrence M. Friedman‘s A History of American Law and American Law in the 20th Century and have been fascinated with the subject ever since. His most recent work, The Big Trial: Law as Public Spectacle (University Press of Kansas, 2015) combines the scintillating narrative style that he employs as the author of several mystery novels with the keen insights about law and society that he has revealed time and again in his numerous cornerstone works of legal scholarship. Per the book jacket, “The trial of O. J. Simpson was a sensation, avidly followed by millions of people, but it was also, in a sense, nothing new. One hundred years earlier the Lizzie Borden trial had held the nation in thrall. The names (and the crimes) may change, but the appeal is enduring–and why this is, how it works, and what it means are what Lawrence Friedman investigates in The Big Trial. What is it about these cases that captures the public imagination? Are the “headline trials” of our period different from those of a century or two ago? And what do we learn from them, about the nature of our society, past and present? To get a clearer picture, Friedman first identifies what certain headline trials have in common, then considers particular cases within each grouping. The political trial, for instance, embraces treason and spying, dissenters and radicals, and, to varying degrees, corruption and fraud. Celebrity trials involve the famous–whether victims, as in the case of Charles Manson, or defendants as disparate as Fatty Arbuckle and William Kennedy Smith–but certain high-profile cases, such as those Friedman categorizes as tabloid trials, can also create celebrities. The fascination of whodunit trials can be found in the mystery surrounding the case: Are we sure about O. J. Simpson? What about Claus von Bulow–tried, in another sensational case, for sending his wife into a coma? An especially interesting type of case Friedman groups under the rubric worm in the bud. These are cases, such as that of Lizzie Borden, that seem to put society itself on trial; they raise fundamental social questions and often suggest hidden and secret pathologies. And finally, a small but important group of cases proceed from moral panic, the Salem witchcraft trials being the classic instance, though Friedman also considers recent examples. Though they might differ in significant ways, these types of trials also have important similarities. Most notably, they invariably raise questions about identity (Who is this defendant? A villain? An innocent unfairly accused?). And in this respect, The Big Trial shows us, the headline trial reflects a critical aspect of modern society. Reaching across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries to the latest outrage, from congressional hearings to lynching and vigilante justice to public punishment, from Dr. Sam Sheppard (the “fugitive”) to Jeffrey Dahmer (the “cannibal”), The Rosenbergs to Timothy McVeigh, the book presents a complex picture of headline trials as displays of power–moments of “didactic theater”” that demonstrate in one way or another whether a society is fair, whom it protects, and whose interest it serves.” Some of the topics we cover are: (1) Classifications of the different types of headline trials; (2) How telling the story of headline trials also tells the story of the rise of mass media; (3) Why big trials are considered didactic theater. (4) The effect the familiarity we now have with celebrities has upon the trials that involve them. Lawrence Friedman is Marion Rice Kirkwood Professor of Law at Stanford Law School.

Guest: William Kennedy Smith, MD Host: Bruce Japsen War-torn countries like Darfur, Afghanistan and Iraq are often unable to address even the most basic medical needs of their citizens. A unique volunteer effort, called ‘iCons in Medicine,' could soon change that, using new advances in telemedicine to provide much needed assistance to medical care providers in these areas. Dr. William Kennedy Smith, founding president of iCons in Medicine and the Center for International Rehabilitation in Chicago, tells host Bruce Japsen about an effort to get 300 volunteer physicians to provide 1,000 hours of free consultations to their medical colleagues working in regions ravaged by war, poverty and other devastating conditions.
