Caleb Flynn Was Sentenced to Life in Prison for Ashley Flynn's Murder 05.10.2026 1h 30minA Miami County, Ohio judge sentenced Caleb Flynn in the aggravated murder of his wife, Ashley Flynn. The former American Idol contestant and worship leader was convicted on all nine counts after a nine-day trial in which prosecutors argued he shot Ashley in the back of the head while she slept and staged the scene to look like a home invasion. Their two young daughters were sleeping nearby. Flynn had carried on an 18-month affair with a church intern sixteen years younger than him. The two exchanged over 107,000 texts before Ashley was killed on February 16. The jury deliberated approximately two hours. The defense presented no witnesses and has announced an appeal. This is the full sentencing hearing.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Lindsay Clancy’s Defense Filing Did to Patrick Clancy 05.10.2026 19minKevin Reddington filed a motion after the Lindsay Clancy mistrial stating there is no evidence Lindsay killed her children. True crime circles assumed the defense was pointing the finger at Patrick Clancy. That reading is wrong. The filing is a Rule 25(b) motion — a procedural argument that the prosecution’s trial record lacks direct physical evidence of the act. It’s a technical challenge to evidentiary sufficiency, not a narrative shift and not an accusation. But the distinction doesn’t matter to the internet. Patrick Clancy is now fighting off accusations manufactured by people who read a legal headline and filled in their own theory. Reddington is also pursuing the single holdout juror from the 11-1 mistrial split — investigating a private citizen who voted guilty. Between the procedural play and the juror investigation, the defense’s post-trial tactics demand scrutiny.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Kouri Richins Is Planning After Her Life Sentence 05.10.2026 15minOn the day Kouri Richins’ defense team was supposed to respond to prosecutors, they didn’t. They filed a sealed motion instead — hidden from public view — asking the judge to pause her entire case. Prosecutors call the reason she gave ‘a misleading pretext.’Richins was convicted of poisoning her husband Eric Richins with five times the lethal dose of fentanyl. She tried it first on Valentine’s Day with a laced sandwich, then two weeks later with a cocktail at their home near Park City. The jury returned guilty verdicts on all counts in under three hours. She’s serving life without parole.Her defense has pushed multiple post-conviction challenges. A new trial motion alleging judicial hostility. A motion to disqualify Judge Richard Mrazik. A separate judge denied the disqualification, finding no extreme behavior or deep-seated antagonism in the trial record. Mrazik returned to the case.The sealed motion the defense filed asks the court to wait for a separate obstruction investigation to play out before ruling on the new trial motion. Prosecutors say the real purpose isn’t to support the existing arguments — it’s to build entirely new ones. The original claim was about the judge’s conduct during the trial. The new claim is about what happened in a closed hearing before trial. Prosecutor Brad Bloodworth wrote that the two complaints don’t connect.At the center of the obstruction investigation is a detective who worked the Richins case, a sheriff running for reelection who allegedly tried to use anonymous allegations against that detective, and a recorded jail call where a man described as Kouri’s admirer explains why he helped that sheriff’s campaign. The explanation goes straight back to the detective who built the case against her.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Christa Pike Did After the State Gave Her Two Lethal Injections 05.10.2026 13minChrista Pike survived two lethal injections on September 30, 2026. The state of Tennessee gave her two doses of pentobarbital — the drug used in its execution protocol — and neither one worked. Witnesses reported Pike breathing on the gurney, saying her arm felt like it was about to burst, and audibly snoring. Corrections officials stopped the execution and called an ambulance. Pike was transported to a hospital. Governor Bill Lee halted all executions statewide and ordered a third-party review. Pike murdered 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer in January 1995 at a Job Corps center in Knoxville. Slemmer’s family has waited more than 31 years for closure. Instead, they watched the state bungle the execution and wheel the killer to a hospital. Tennessee now faces a question it cannot answer: how does this happen with unlimited resources and months to prepare?Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Nancy Guthrie’s Extortionist Knew About a Former FBI Agent 05.10.2026 27minFormer FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer was personally targeted by an extortionist claiming to hold Nancy Guthrie. The ransom demand arrived at a private personnel email address — and used a middle name Coffindaffer doesn’t go by publicly. Those two details suggest access to information that should be impossible to find on someone who spent a career in federal law enforcement. Coffindaffer immediately reported it to the FBI, but local authorities publicly dismissed the notes as fakes while real, sophisticated extortion was actively happening. Nancy’s friend Lauren Serpa received a separate demand for six bitcoin — approximately half a million dollars — with claims Guthrie was alive in Mexico. Crypto wallets masking IP addresses and AI-generated proof-of-life images reveal the level of organization behind these demands. Nancy Guthrie vanished from Catalina Foothills, Arizona on February 1, 2026. She is 84 years old.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Caleb Flynn’s 107,000 Messages Met a Two-Hour Verdict 05.10.2026 44minCaleb Flynn's murder trial gave jurors a digital record few cases ever produce. Prosecutors introduced 107,000 messages between Flynn and Alleigha Botner, organized into thirty-four books. Jurors heard messages about hatred toward Ashley Flynn, talk of killing her, and promises that Flynn would soon be free to start a new life.Investigators also testified about data recovered from Flynn's devices after apps had been removed. The State used phone, Apple Watch, AirPods, surveillance, and other digital evidence to challenge Flynn's claim that an intruder entered the home and killed Ashley while he was elsewhere in the house.The defense argued that the missing murder weapon mattered and that an affair was motive evidence, not proof. It called no witnesses after the prosecution presented forty. On September 29, the jury found Flynn guilty on all nine charges, including aggravated murder. Sentencing is scheduled for October 5.This combined episode then turns to psychotherapist Shavaun Scott for a behavioral analysis of the relationship Flynn maintained with Botner. Scott explains how intermittent reinforcement can keep someone returning after repeated disappointment, how sunk-cost thinking makes leaving harder, and how compartmentalization can support a double life.Scott's analysis did not convict Flynn and was not evidence before the jury. It helps frame the relationship dynamics around evidence the jury did hear.Tony Brueski separates those two questions: what proved the criminal case, and what may explain the long pattern of promises, secrecy, and delay that surrounded it.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Delphi Appeal: What Richard Allen Says His Jury Was Denied 04.10.2026 33minRichard Allen’s direct appeal is not a second trial. It is a challenge to decisions that determined what his 2024 jury could and could not hear before convicting him of the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski to examine two connected parts of that argument: evidence about another man investigated in the case, and evidence the defense says would have undercut the State’s proof against Allen.The alternate-suspect issue centers on Brad Holder, who was investigated in 2017 but has never been charged. Allen’s appellate lawyer Mark Leeman told the Indiana Court of Appeals that Holder later posted a rune-like marking on his hand and social-media material the defense believed had similarities to the scene. Judge Frances Gull excluded the theory at trial because Indiana requires a direct connection between a third party and the charged crime. The State says Holder’s work records placed him at a landfill roughly 25 miles away at the relevant time.The second fight concerns the State’s cartridge evidence and Betsy Blair’s eyewitness account. A State Police examiner testified that an unfired .40-caliber round found near the girls had been cycled through Allen’s handgun. Gull excluded former FBI metallurgist William Tobin, whom the defense wanted to use to challenge that methodology. She also excluded the Blair sketch as hearsay, although Blair testified that the man in Libby German’s Bridge Guy image was the man she had seen.Bob Motta explains how appellate judges evaluate those rulings: not by deciding which theory sounds better, but by asking whether Gull applied the right legal rules and, if not, whether the error was harmless. The panel has not yet ruled.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Alex Murdaugh's Retrial Moved Amid New Weapons Allegations 04.10.2026 29minAlex Murdaugh’s second murder trial is now scheduled for Sumter County, about eighty miles from the courthouse where he was convicted in 2023. Judge Debra McCaslin moved the case after finding that Murdaugh could not receive a fair and impartial retrial in Colleton County or elsewhere in the Fourteenth Judicial Circuit. The first jury-selection process had already disqualified most of the people summoned, and McCaslin said later publicity and the Becky Hill jury-interference case only deepened the problem.The defense had pushed for Charleston and offered to waive any future appeal based on venue if the judge accepted that request. McCaslin instead picked Sumter after reviewing jury-pool size, courthouse capacity, security, transportation, and technology. The retrial is set for April 5, 2027.Meanwhile, state investigators and statewide grand-jury prosecutors are reportedly examining allegations involving the still-missing murder weapons. Recent reports identify Yemassee Police Chief Greg Alexander and another officer as subjects of questions about weapons and bloody clothing allegedly moved after Maggie and Paul Murdaugh were killed. Alexander has not been charged. His attorney says the allegations are unfounded and has called the reporting ridiculous rumors.The new inquiry does not erase the evidence presented in the first trial, and it does not establish who handled the missing guns. But it gives both sides another factual dispute to investigate before the retrial. Tony Brueski looks at how a new venue and an unresolved evidence question could reshape the second prosecution of one of South Carolina’s most scrutinized criminal cases.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

JP Miller Delayed His Trial Again — And the Demon Talk Is Back 04.10.2026 28minJP Miller is headed toward a January 2027 federal trial after his defense obtained a sixth continuance. The former Myrtle Beach pastor has pleaded not guilty to cyberstalking Mica Miller and making false statements to federal investigators, and the allegations in the indictment are concrete: unwanted communications, tracking devices, interference with finances and daily life, vehicle damage, and alleged lies to the FBI.Then there is the much stranger public record. In October 2023, Miller told his Solid Rock Church congregation that he was going through deliverance sessions and that demons were coming out of him. There is no indication that demonic possession has been raised as a defense in his federal case. But the statements matter because of what was happening around the same period and because of how Miller described his own behavior elsewhere.Mica's brother Nate Francis said in a sworn affidavit that JP sent Mica an email acknowledging that when he felt hurt, he would try to hurt back, attack, and cause pain. That language is not mystical. It is personal, direct, and potentially far more relevant to how viewers understand the allegations now before a federal court.The demon-defense comparison has legal history, too. In 1981, Arne Cheyenne Johnson's attorney tried to present demonic possession as an explanation for a fatal stabbing. Judge Robert Callahan barred the argument as irrelevant and unreliable, and Johnson was convicted of manslaughter.Tony Brueski looks at why the Miller case is not really about demons at all. After six delays, the central issue is whether prosecutors can prove the charged conduct beyond a reasonable doubt and whether the defense can undercut the government's digital, documentary, and witness evidence when the case finally reaches trial.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Alleigha Botner's Texts Revealed About Caleb Flynn 04.10.2026 37minAlleigha Botner’s testimony forced the Caleb Flynn trial to confront both halves of the affair. Prosecutors did not only show jurors Flynn’s statements about wanting Ashley Flynn gone. They made Botner claim her own words. In one July 2025 exchange, she acknowledged writing that she wanted Ashley dead. Flynn replied, “that makes two of us.” Botner testified that she did not mean it literally.Jennifer Coffindaffer, a retired FBI special agent, and Robin Dreeke examine how those messages fit into the broader behavioral record. That includes the September 2 conversation after Ashley found evidence of the affair, when Flynn suggested taking Ashley’s phone while she slept and Botner responded “be careful,” asked what excuse he would use, and later wrote “Perfect.” The issue is not whether one ugly message proves a crime. It is how the sequence, repetition, and practical planning were presented to the jury.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines the relationship from the other end of the timeline. Botner was a young church intern when she met Flynn, an older married worship-team volunteer. Scott discusses how age, religious trust, secrecy, Flynn’s claim that Ashley was merely a roommate, matching hidden tattoos, and AI-generated love songs can help create an insulated relationship in which outside objections lose force.The jury ultimately convicted Flynn on September 29, 2026, of aggravated murder and eight other charges. His lawyers had argued that the state never proved he fired the gun, that an intruder killed Ashley, and that the affair evidence was emotionally powerful but not direct proof. Sentencing is scheduled for October 5. Coffindaffer and Scott bring two different expert lenses to the same question: how much of this case lives in what was said, and how much lives in the relationship that made those conversations possible?Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Caleb Flynn’s Mistress Texts and Police Interview Revealed 04.10.2026 47minThe Caleb Flynn case turned on more than one kind of evidence. Jurors heard months of private messages between Caleb and Alleigha Botner, then watched police interviews in which Detective Mike Morgan pressed Caleb on the physical scene inside the Flynn home.Botner’s testimony included a June 2025 exchange that ended with Caleb saying, “I’ve never joked about it.” Other messages included “please take her out” and an August statement about thinking of ways to kill Ashley and not go to jail. Prosecutors argued the messages showed escalating intent. The defense said they showed a dishonest husband telling his girlfriend what she wanted to hear, not a murderer confessing a plan.Morgan’s interview tested a different question: whether Caleb’s account matched the house. He told Caleb the garage entry point did not make sense as a forced break-in and walked him through the bedroom evidence. At one point, Morgan described the edge of the bed where Caleb said he had stood while checking on Ashley, placing him in the area investigators believed the shooter occupied. Caleb agreed.Tony Brueski brings in retired FBI behavioral expert Robin Dreeke and former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer to examine how investigators use incremental disclosures, how jurors may weigh violent language against physical evidence, and what can and cannot be inferred from a suspect’s responses in an interview.On September 29, 2026, the jury convicted Caleb Flynn on all nine counts. His attorneys have indicated an appeal is expected.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Richard Allen Appeal: Did Indiana Protect Him Into Psychosis? 03.10.2026 53minThis Delphi special combines the “Before the Appeal” commentary with a discussion of the appeal hearing featuring defense attorney Bob Motta. That structure matters because the first half explains what Richard Allen’s lawyers said was wrong with his trial, while the second tests those claims against the questions the Indiana Court of Appeals actually asked on September 21, 2026.Allen was convicted in November 2024 of murdering Abby Williams and Libby German and later sentenced to 130 years. His appeal challenges multiple trial rulings, including the admission of incriminating statements made after months at Westville Correctional Facility. The defense argues that Allen’s prolonged restrictive housing contributed to psychosis and that the resulting statements were not voluntary in the constitutional sense.Indiana argued that the placement was for Allen’s protection, not an interrogation strategy, and that several important statements were made when he was coherent. Judge Nancy Vaidik pushed back with the hearing’s most quoted line: “You protected him into psychosis.” The judges also explored excluded defense evidence and repeatedly tested whether any alleged trial errors mattered enough to require a new trial.Tony Brueski and Bob Motta separate courtroom pressure from appellate outcome. A judge’s skeptical question can reveal the issue the panel is wrestling with, but it does not tell us how that judge will vote. The case was taken under advisement without a ruling, meaning the legal question is now whether the panel sees reversible error — not simply whether it disliked how Allen was treated.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lindsay Clancy's Defense Wants the Jury Notes Unsealed 03.10.2026 1h 5minThe Lindsay Clancy case has moved from a deadlocked jury to a fight over what the judge should do with the record that deadlock created. This combined episode includes our discussion before the September 29 hearing with defense attorney Bob Motta, followed by special commentary explaining what happened in the Rule 25 hearing and the defense effort to un-impound juror information.After the September 4 mistrial, jurors publicly described an 11-to-1 split favoring not guilty by reason of lack of criminal responsibility. Foreperson Roni Carlson said the lone holdout acknowledged reasonable doubt but would not join that verdict. Nick Dargie said the holdout could not identify evidence supporting his position. Those reports gave the defense a new question to press: whether the mistrial was necessary at all, and whether more inquiry into the juror should have happened first.At the September 29 hearing, Kevin Reddington renewed a Rule 25 request for a required finding of not guilty. He argued the prosecution's evidence was legally insufficient and sharply criticized the investigation. Prosecutor Shanan Buckingham answered that the Commonwealth had presented enough evidence to support the charges and noted that the defense had accepted key stipulations during trial.A separate fight came from appellate attorney Martin Weinberg, who asked for access to sealed jury notes and sidebar material connected to the deadlock. The defense says those records may support its double-jeopardy argument by showing what the judge knew about the holdout before declaring a mistrial. Prosecutors warned against exposing deliberative material in a way that could chill future juries.Judge William Sullivan left the major questions open and set November 2 for further proceedings. Bob Motta explains the practical difference between Rule 25, double jeopardy, juror misconduct claims, and a motion to unseal - four paths that are now converging on the same unresolved question: can this case be tried again?Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Kohberger Wants His Plea Back Over WHAT His Lawyers Said?! 03.10.2026 29minBryan Kohberger wants to withdraw the guilty plea that spared him a death-penalty trial, and his new challenge reaches back to what his own lawyers privately told the judge weeks before that plea. The now-unsealed filing says Anne Taylor’s team believed Kohberger was struggling to understand adverse rulings and rationally evaluate the case as a whole.That is not the same as a finding that Kohberger was incompetent. His attorneys expressly denied incompetence while asking Judge Steven Hippler for additional time to investigate the problem and obtain expert assistance. Hippler denied the request on June 26, 2025. Six days later, Kohberger admitted the murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin and pleaded guilty to burglary as well. The post-conviction petition tells a different story from the plea hearing. Kohberger now alleges his attorneys pressured him, made promises about prison life, and failed to disclose evidence. At the plea hearing, however, he told Hippler he understood the consequences, was not being forced, and was pleading guilty because he was guilty. His evidence claim involving hair found in Ethan Chapin’s hand also has a pre-plea record. Defense expert Ruth Ballard examined a hair from that location and concluded it was morphologically consistent with Chapin’s own reference hair. Taylor filed that analysis before the plea agreement was signed. Tony Brueski and defense attorney Eric Faddis examine what a court does with those competing records, why the competency distinction matters, and what the October 15 fight over Judge Hippler could mean before the larger evidentiary hearing scheduled for June 2027.

Caleb Flynn’s Texts Contradicted WHAT He Told Police?! 03.10.2026 45minCaleb Flynn told police there were no problems in his marriage. Trial testimony gave jurors a very different record: a long-running affair, repeated promises of divorce, messages about wanting Ashley Flynn gone, and more than 100,000 communications with Alleigha Botner. The contrast is the center of this combined episode. Botner testified that Flynn repeatedly said he would leave Ashley but kept delaying. In one exchange, he described the job, home, income, and family time he said he would sacrifice for Botner, then asked her to prove she was willing to do anything for love. He followed that demand by insisting he was not trying to manipulate her. Other messages turned darker, including statements about hating Ashley, wanting her dead, and thinking through ways to kill her without going to jail. Hours after Ashley was found shot, Detective Mike Morgan interviewed Flynn. His phone contained no messages from his wife. Flynn said he deletes messages to save storage. He volunteered two possible outside suspects and told Morgan his marriage had no problems “whatsoever.” Tony Brueski and former FBI behavioral expert Robin Dreeke examine what investigators hear when a suspect arrives with explanations and alternatives already prepared — while keeping behavior analysis separate from proof. Flynn’s attorneys argued that an unknown intruder killed Ashley and emphasized the absence of a recovered murder weapon or eyewitness to the shooting. They argued the messages showed infidelity and toxic talk, not murder. Prosecutors presented the texts alongside digital and physical evidence. On September 29, 2026, a jury convicted Flynn on all charged counts and firearm specifications. He is scheduled to be sentenced October 5. The interrogation now reads against a verdict — and against the written record jurors had in front of them.

JP Miller Has Delayed His Trial SIX Times — He's Still Free 03.10.2026 14minBetween 2010 and 2020, the federal government filed 412 cyberstalking cases across the entire United States. Roughly 40 a year. The overall federal conviction rate exceeds 90 percent. Prosecutors pick the cases they expect to win.JP Miller is one of those cases. A federal grand jury in South Carolina indicted the Myrtle Beach pastor in December 2025 on two counts — cyberstalking and making false statements to federal investigators. The indictment alleges a course of conduct from November 2022 until the day Mica Miller died on April 27, 2024. The North Carolina medical examiner ruled her death a suicide.JP pleaded not guilty in January 2026. Since then, his defense team has filed six motions for continuance. Prosecutors consented to all six.Judge Joseph Dawson III signed every order. JP voluntarily waived his right to a speedy trial. The trial is now set for January 2027.Prosecutors allege JP tracked Mica's location, sent floods of unwanted messages, posted a private photograph, and tampered with her vehicle. Mica called police seven times. Officers responded every time. When Mica was involuntarily hospitalized in February 2024, JP allegedly showed up and took her purse and car keys.In January 2027, Mica's Law — the coercive control bill her family championed — is expected to be reintroduced. The bill stalled in the South Carolina legislature in 2026.JP Miller is free on $100,000 unsecured bond. He remarried thirteen months after Mica's death. He preaches at pop-up locations around Myrtle Beach. The system moved — and it's still waiting.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Caleb Flynn's Mistress Knew — Plus Lindsay Clancy's Lawyer 03.10.2026 56minCaleb Flynn was convicted of aggravated murder. The jury took under three hours. We're asking whether civil court could reach the woman who spent eighteen months reading Flynn's death texts and said nothing — his mistress Alleigha Botner. This episode also covers two bombshell developments in the Lindsay Clancy case: Kevin Reddington's Rule 25 motion claiming there's no evidence Clancy killed her children, and his demand to investigate the lone holdout juror who prevented an acquittal. Flynn has been convicted. Clancy has pleaded not guilty. All individuals discussed are presumed innocent of any uncharged conduct until proven guilty.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Someone Texted Nancy Guthrie’s Family THIS About Mexico 02.10.2026 14minSomeone sent Nancy Guthrie’s daughter a text on September 28 claiming her mother is alive in Mexico. Bitcoin demanded. The sheriff’s department dismissed it in under 24 hours. A retired FBI agent says it’s a recycled scam — same playbook she saw used against her in April, different target.The Nancy Guthrie case is eight months old. The 84-year-old mother of Savannah Guthrie disappeared from her Catalina Foothills home outside Tucson after being dropped off by family the evening of January 31. By early morning February 1, her blood was on the porch, her doorbell camera was dark, and her pacemaker had stopped communicating with her phone.FBI-recovered footage from Google’s servers shows a masked, armed individual at Nancy’s front door before she was taken. No one has been able to identify the figure. DNA found at the scene in February doesn’t belong to Nancy or her associates. Genetic genealogy analysis has been running since March, but sources say the sample quality is “low-level” and may not yield a usable profile.FBI Director Kash Patel publicly stated his bureau was kept out for the first four critical days. The Pima County deputies’ union president called the early investigation a product of “leadership incompetence.” The crime scene was handed back to the family before federal agents had processed it, and the DNA was sent to a private lab in Florida instead of the FBI’s facility at Quantico.Two ransom notes the FBI considers “potentially legitimate” contained details from inside the home. The first demanded four million dollars in Bitcoin. The second announced Nancy’s death, claiming she was “buried in nature.”More than $1.2 million in rewards. No suspect named. No arrest. The case may hinge on what happens in that DNA lab.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Why Matthew Farwell Deleted Two Searches Five Days After Sandra Birchmore Died 02.10.2026 18minFederal prosecutors put it in a 2026 court filing: at no point was Matthew Farwell seriously considered as a suspect in a homicide. Part 2 of the Sandra Birchmore story is the investigation that produced that sentence, from the hour her body was found to the federal courtroom where jury selection begins October 5, 2026.Canton police found Sandra on February 4, 2021, seated on her bedroom floor with a duffel-bag strap around her neck. A trooper checked the suicide box that day. By February 6 the state had video of Farwell entering her building masked and leaving 29 minutes later, and a caller's report that Sandra's police-officer boyfriend had said he would take care of the problem himself. Detectives met him in a parking lot, unrecorded. He told them it began in 2020; the department's own investigators put it at 2013, when she was 15.On February 9, the FBI says, Farwell used his Stoughton-issued phone to look up whether deleted iMessages can be recovered and whether consent can be revoked, then wiped both searches. In March his lawyer refused a DNA sample and the state didn't seek a warrant. In May the medical examiner ruled suicide. The lieutenant who supervised the case had been a Stoughton officer alongside the deputy chief who ran the Explorers program, and later worked the Karen Read investigation.The Norfolk DA's office declined to prosecute in 2022, citing Sandra's death. The FBI arrested Farwell in August 2024. Prosecutors' 2026 filings say his DNA is the major contributor on the strap; the defense says the strap carries a mixture from at least four people and that Sandra died by suicide. He has pleaded not guilty.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Reddington Did to the Juror After the Clancy Mistrial 02.10.2026 20minEleven jurors voted to acquit Lindsay Clancy by reason of insanity. One man held out. Defense attorney Kevin Reddington demanded the court investigate him, accused him of misconduct and of lying during jury selection, and identified his gender in a press conference. Media reported the man's name and personal background. He now has his own attorney. Judge Sullivan scheduled a hearing on Reddington's investigation motion for November 2 — alongside the defense's motion to dismiss the charges entirely. This segment examines whether a defense attorney targeting a holdout juror is aggressive lawyering or a calculated act of intimidation aimed at future jury pools. Clancy has pleaded not guilty.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
