On the three-year anniversary of 22-year-old Gabby Petito’s murder, Laura interviews Nichole Schmidt, Gabby’s mother.   In this episode, Nichole shares what Gabby was like growing up as well as details about Brian and Gabby’s relationship and what she now knows to be the red flags.   Gabby was reported missing on September 11 2021 after her 23-year-old fiancé, Brian Laundrie, returned from a cross-country road trip without her on September 1 2021. Instead of speaking with Gabby’s family, the Laundrie family chose to lawyer up.   To mark the three-year anniversary and in honour of Gabby, listen to the conversation and share the episodes with family and friends.

In this episode Laura is once more joined by Hetti Nanton, Joanna Simpson’s best friend and chair of the national domestic violence charity, Refuge. In the aftermath of Jo’s brutal death, and following the previous in-depth interview, Hetti had lingering questions she wanted answered including, as Jo’s best friend, why didn’t she know Jo was at risk? Why didn’t she know the risks were escalating? Why didn’t she convince Jo to protect herself? In this authentic and honest conversation Laura answers those questions through the lens of Jo’s case, deconstructing the at-times hard to spot coercively controlling behaviours as well as highlighting what can be done to help a loved one who might be in a similar situation to Jo. Laura is frequently asked how to help someone who is being abused and oftentimes in the wake of a murder, family members who have met Laura say, ‘if only we had met you before.’ This episode is an important listen.

Laura interviews Louise Godbold, a survivor of Harvey Weinstein who came forward in October 2017. By this time, Louise had already been a trauma specialist for nearly a decade and is the executive director of the non-profit Echo. Echo provides trauma and resilience training for families, communities and professionals and organizations.  We discuss the LA trial, which has received little media attention, including the tactics used by Weinstein’s defense team. We also breakdown the defense’s strategy and how it mirrors the perpetrator’s behaviour. We spotlight the tired and worn-out narrative that women who disclose sexual abuse are liars and attention seekers who want fame and fortune and where these tropes come from. We also discuss why the term “accuser” should not be used for victims of sexual and domestic along with defense expert Elizabeth Loftus’ damaging ‘false memory’ narrative regarding trauma victims. There’s a lot at stake with this trial. Join us as we unpack all the latest on this case. Listener discretion is advised. We discuss sexual abuse in graphic detail.  #Survivors #HarveyWeinstein #WomenMatter #Trauma #CrimeAnalyst #Expert #Analysis #Behaviour #TrueCrime #Podcast #Crime #SerialPerpetrator Clips  https://abc7.com/harvey-weinstein-los-angeles-trial-rape-sexual-assault/12523099/ Sources https://www.echotraining.org/ https://www.pacesconnection.com/blog/my-encounter-with-harvey-weinstein-and-what-it-tells-us-about-trauma https://www.thewrap.com/harvey-weinstein-accuser-louise-godbold-trauma-specialist/ https://www.laurarichards.co.uk/harvey-weinstein/ https://www.laurarichards.co.uk/closing-arguments-harvey-weinstein-the-victim-or-serial-sexual-predator/ https://www.laurarichards.co.uk/harvey-weinstein-sentenced-to-23-years/ https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-12-27/ghislaine-maxwell-jeffrey-epstein-false-memories-defence/100724358 https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/09/us/harvey-weinstein-los-angeles-deliberations-friday/index.html https://variety.com/2022/film/news/harvey-weinstein-abnormal-testicles-rape-trial-1235448425/ https://nypost.com/2022/12/06/harvey-weinsteins-deformed-privates-scrutinized-in-la-rape-trial/ Crime Analyst Merch  https://crime-analyst.myshopify.com/ Leave a Review If you want to support my work and Crime Analyst and if you enjoyed this episode, please leave a 5-star review here: https://www.crime-analyst.com/reviews/new/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Laura interviews Diana Parkes, Joanna’s mother and Hetti Nanton, Joanna’s best friend and chair of the national domestic violence charity, Refuge. Joanna Simpson was brutally killed on October 31, 2010, by her ex-husband Robert Brown a British Airways pilot, one week before their divorce would be finalized at the High Court. Brown dropped the two children home. He took a claw hammer with him and bludgeoned Jo to death, hitting her at least 14 times. At Brown’s trial, the court heard how he bundled the children into his car and wrapped Jo’s body in plastic sheeting he had brought with him along with a white overall suit. He placed her in the boot before driving to Windsor Park where he had already dug a grave and put down a makeshift coffin.  After nearly 15 hours of deliberation, the jury cleared Brown of murder. He was convicted for manslaughter by reason of diminished responsibility and sentenced to 26 years, the maximum sentence allowed. He will be released after serving just 13 years in 2023. Listen as we discuss the case, the events leading up to Jo being brutally killed, the details about how Jo was killed and what happened afterwards in terms of Brown’s post offence behaviour and the trial. We discuss the prosecution’s case and how the family were treated both inside and outside court.  Laura also shares critical insight about the case and Brown’s mindset, which she has seen repeatedly amongst men who kill their former or current partners. This insight is essential if we are to prevent murders in slow motion like Jo’s and effectively prosecute men like Brown. Trigger warning: This case is upsetting, and it may be triggering. Listener discretion is advised.

In part 2 of Laura’s interview with award winning investigative journalist Nicki Weisensee Egan, Laura and Nicki discuss Bruce Castor’s decision not to prosecute Bill Cosby in 2005 and the non-prosecution agreement, which none of the prosecutors or police knew about, nor was it written down or signed off by a Judge. Laura and Nicki talk about Cosby’s release from prison on the afternoon of 30th June 2021, following the decision that was made public in the morning and how a journalist had tipped off Cosby’s spokesman one week earlier that he would be released. Laura and Nicki also discuss the civil suits against Cosby.

Laura interviews award winning investigative journalist Nicki Weisensee Egan. For years Nicki was the one reporter who investigated Bill Cosby. Nicki documented her investigation in the book Chasing Cosby, which was the basis for her award winning podcast of the same name. More than sixty women made allegations against Cosby across the years. In December 2015, the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office announced it had filed an aggravated incident assault charge in Andrea Constand’s case. It took nearly three years and two trials to convict Cosby. He was sentenced to 3-10 years. When Cosby was convicted in 2018, many considered the jury’s decision a landmark in the movement to hold alleged sexual predators accountable. However, in July 2021 Cosby’s conviction was vacated and he was discharged from prison. Laura and Nicki discuss how and why this happened and the latest in the case. You won’t want to miss this.

Laura continues her conversation with Tonia Bales, John Meehan’s first wife of 10 years. In part 2, Tonia details the night her world was shattered forever, when she accessed John’s hard drive and read all his emails he had sent to other women - and men. John had feelings for another man, and whilst Tonia was desperately trying to fix her marriage, John was proactively pursuing him and others. We also discuss how John manipulated many people who were taken in by his charm and how they enabled John’s behaviour. Tonia’s case highlights how important it is to challenge the notion that an abuser’s parental right is more important than a child’s right to safety.  Tonia walks us back to her 23-year-old self and we unravel how Tonia was the perfect target for John, the red flags and what to look for to avoid a psychopath like Dirty John.

Laura interviews award winning journalist and creator and host of the True Sunlight and Cup of Justice podcasts, Mandy Matney. Following on from her incredible groundbreaking reporting of the Murdaugh Murders, Mandy has been investigating Mica’s untimely and troubling death.   Laura and Mandy unravel the events leading up to 30-year-old Mica being found dead from a gunshot wound to the head in North Carolina’s Lumber River State Park on April 27 2024. Mica’s death came days after she told a police officer she was ‘scared for her life’ after she found a GPS tracker on her car and a razor blade on her tyre. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.   Listen as Laura and Mandy discuss the disturbing behaviours that have been uncovered and the coercive control red flags that could have saved Mica. Join the conversation on social media and in the Crime Analyst Squad www.patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst #MicaFrancis #MicaMiller #JusticeForMica #CrimeAnalyst #Expert #Analysis #TrueCrime #Podcast #Crime   Clips https://www.tiktok.com/@therobbieharvey/video/7364765211661798702?lang=en https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYOjVP6uS8E     Sources Link to Cross Over episode with Mandy and Laura on Cup of Justice Ep #86: Apple Link:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coj-86-crime-analyst-expert-laura-richards-joins-mandy/id1668668400?i=1000659373717 Spotify Link https://open.spotify.com/episode/10P6t5LmMxF3YHUdgxPcm9?si=e3832e105dc1430d For current & accurate updates: TrueSunlight.com  (https://bit.ly/457ZXY8) facebook.com/TrueSunlightPodcast/  (https://bit.ly/3JpBDIP) Instagram.com/TrueSunlightPod/  (https://bit.ly/3GpV8wS) Twitter.com/mandymatney  (https://bit.ly/3dp3w3B) youtube.com/@LunaSharkMedia (https://youtube.com/@LunaSharkMedia)     Thank you to the wonderful Crime Analyst Sponsor: Shopify: Sign up for a $1 per month trial period at SHOPIFY.com/crimeanalyst     JOIN the Crime Analyst Squad: www.patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst   REGISTER For Laura’s 2024 Masterclasses: https://shoutout.wix.com/so/faP3GVibW?languageTag=en   More Training Info: www.dashriskchecklist.com www.thelaurarichards.com and https://shoutout.wix.com/so/5eP3GUw-t?languageTag=en  YouTube, Socials and Website YouTube @crimeanalyst Instagram @crimeanalyst @laurarichards999 Twitter @thecrimeanalyst @laurarichards99 TikTok @crimeanalystpod Website www.crime-analyst.com Leave a Review https://www.crime-analyst.com/reviews/new/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Laura interviews Tonia Bales, John Meehan’s first wife of 10 years about her life with John. Tonia had two daughter’s, Emily and Abigail, with John. Having listened to the podcast ‘Dirty John’ and watched scripted Bravo show of the same name and the documentary ‘Dirty John the Dirty Truth’ Tonia realized there was so much she did not know – and she and Laura wanted to go back and re-investigate John.  The re-investigation was documented in the eight-part investigative podcast, ‘The First Wife: John Meehan’s Reign of Terror’ (available only on Audible) and in this two-part series, Laura and Tonia go behind the scenes of the re-investigation and candidly debrief some of the astonishing revelations including one bombshell that has changed Tonia and her daughter’s lives forever. Laura and Tonia also discuss how John tried to further control her using the Family Justice System, a system that seemed to back up and enable John at every turn, despite criminal investigations into John’s behaviour and him going to prison. You won’t want to miss this.

Laura continues to analyze the police report filed by Officer Pratt and Officer Robbins and the 99-page Moab City Police Investigative Review of the Police Stop was published on 12th January 2022.  Laura outlines why the predominant aggressor law in Utah has been misunderstood and misapplied including one major detail which Brian disclosed to police. This important detail appears to have been overlooked or ignored.

In this episode, Laura analyses the most significant aspects of the state’s motion report requesting that Adnan Syed’s conviction be vacated. The report was filed on September 14 2022 and it ultimately led to Adnan Syed being freed on Monday 19th September, after 23 years in prison. Adnan Syed was convicted of first-degree murder, kidnapping and false imprisonment of his 18 year old ex-girlfriend, Hae Min Lee, in 1999. Adnan has steadfastly maintained his innocence and denied any involvement in Hae’s murder. The case was subject to the podcast “Serial” which debuted in 2014 and has been downloaded millions of times. Also, props to Undisclosed podcast Season 1 ‘The State v. Adnan Syed’ with Rabia Chaudry, Susan Stimpson and Colin Miller goes through the case in painstaking detail and highlights key information that was omitted by Serial. I also recommend you watch the HBO’s The Case Against Adnan Syed. This is an incredibly quick turnaround which is extremely rare in cases. Hae Min Lee’s family were represented by Hae’s younger brother, Young Lee, after Judge Phinn ordered a 30 minute recess in court to give him an opportunity to speak. Find out what happened in court, what Young Lee told the court, what the state argued and listen to Laura discuss what happens next with the case.

In this episode, Laura interviews survivor and shero Debra Newell from the podcast “Dirty John,” Bravo show of the same name and Oxygen documentary, “Dirty John, the Dirty Truth,” which Laura served as consultant producer on. Now Debra has written a book called “Surviving Dirty John” to set the record straight about what really happened. Laura and Debra discuss how Debra went to four different police stations, desperate for help. Despite Debra’s 319-page report about John’s history, the police told her it was a civil matter and to go home. This is exactly why Laura and Debra have been lobbying for coercive control law reform and a register for serial perpetrators in America.  Laura unravels coercive control including the red flags and her indirect assessment of John Meehan using the Psychopathy Checklist Re-visited. Debra shares her investigation into her sister Cindi’s murder and reads out the message she sent police the day before her daughter, Terra Newell, was attacked by John Meehan.

Laura, Bill, Kristin and Kathryn break down three rapes committed by Walter Jackson. On June 5 1996, just days after Lollie Winans and Julie Williams were sexually assaulted and murdered, Jackson abducted and raped another woman at knifepoint. He was arrested by a proactive detective. However, a prosecutor declined to pursue charges. Days later he raped again. This is unfathomable as are the extraordinary circumstances of Darrel Rice’s death, the FBI’s prime suspect for Lollie and Julie’s murders for many years. Join the conversation and the Crime Analyst Squad for extra videos relating to these updates and attend the August 14 Ringleaders Happy Hour where Kathryn will join Laura to dive deeper into the case www.patreon.con/CrimeAnalyst If you have any information concerning this case, please contact the FBI’s Toll-Free tipline at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324).

In Part 2 Laura discusses the wide-reaching and catastrophic consequences of Roe vs Wade being overturned in June 2022 with attorney, advocate and best-selling New York Times author Rabia Chaudry.  Laura and Rabia highlight how abortions have been banned before AR-15s and in the wake of the Robb Elementary shooting in Uvalde, Texas where 400-armed law enforcement officers stood outside the classroom as 19 children and two teachers were murdered by a teenager armed with an AR-15. Yet the Supreme Court CHOSE to overturn Roe vs Wade turning back the clock 50 years. Rabia explains the greatest threat to America is the Supreme Court and how the country will be divided into safe and unsafe states for women. At a time that feels overwhelming for women, Laura and Rabia highlight that as women we have fought many battles before and we will fight on and prevail. It’s obvious where the true power lies.

Laura discusses a significant update in Gabby Petito’s case. On Monday 8th August 2022, almost a year to the date of the Moab City Police stop of Gabby’s white van, Gabby’s mother, Nichole and step-father Jim Schmidt and Gabby’s father, Joe and step-mother Tara Petito filed a notice of intent to sue Moab City Police in Utah. The lawsuit accuses them of “negligent failure” to first understand the law and enforce it. They also accuse Moab City Police of “wrongful death” saying that Gabby’s “death was caused by their wrongful acts or neglect.” They are seeking $50m in damages. You won’t want to miss this.

With the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard trial back in the news, Laura discusses the case with attorney, advocate and best-selling New York Times author Rabia Chaudry. Laura asks Rabia her legal perspective about the Depp/Heard case and both discuss the Bot Sentinel Report, published after the trial, which found evidence of organized and targeted online attacks on Amber Heard and other women including themselves as well why and how so many got this case completely wrong.  Both Amber Heard and Johnny Depp have notified the court that they plan to appeal their respective verdict. Both parties have until 5th September 2022 to file their official appeals. This case is not over yet but perhaps the tide is slowly turning.  In Part 1 of this interview, Laura asks Rabia about the latest developments in Hae Min Lee and Adnan Syed’s case. Laura and Rabia also share their experiences of male violence and highlight how prevalent male violence is towards women yet ironically women are still not believed when they report or disclose abuse.  You won’t want to miss this. #AmberHeard #JohnnyDepp #JohnnyDeppVsAmberHeard #JohnnyDeppAmberHeardUpdate #CrimeAnalyst #Expert #Analysis #Behaviour #TrueCrime #Podcast #MaleViolence #Misogyny #PowerImbalance Clips https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdeIEpmA7t4 https://ew.com/celebrity/johnny-depp-amber-heard-court-docs-unsealed/ Sources https://botsentinel.com/reports/documents/amber-heard/report-07-18-2022.pdf https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/story/2022-07-19/amber-heard-twitter-abuse-johnny-depp-trial https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/johnny-depp-amber-heard-backfire-1391807/ Thanks to my sponsor Babbel: Start your new language-learning journey today with Babbel.

Laura interviews special guest Brian Entin, senior National Correspondent for NewsNation who covered Gabby’s case from the start.  Brian was posted up outside the Laundrie’s home in Florida. He also went to the location where Gabby’s van was last seen and where Gabby’s body was found, near an undeveloped camping ground along the border of Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. Brian shares important information about the location in relation to Brian’s so-called confession letter.  Laura and Brian also discuss the lawsuit Gabby’s mother, Nichole Schmidt and Joe Petito, Gabby’s father, filed against the Laundrie’s which is now proceeding as well as interesting disclosures from both Steve Bertolino, the Laundrie’s attorney and Pat Reilly, the attorney acting on behalf of Gabby’s parents and so much more.

In this episode, Laura discusses the other police body worn cameras and highlights new key information available from Officer Pratt’s footage, which was released on Friday 1st October. It took Moab City Police Department more than 14 days to release the second video. Laura shares why she believes it took them so long, highlighting three concerning and significant events that happened across that time in Moab City Police Department. This is uncomfortable information to hear – but it’s important if we are to truly learn from Gabby’s brutal murder in slow motion. You won’t want to miss this.

In this episode, Laura continues to break down Gabby and Brian’s behaviour using the police body worn camera footage from the Moab City Police Department. Laura highlights an important statement Brian makes about the relationship and finances which is overlooked by the responding officers and is yet another indicator of coercive control. Laura focuses on evidence that Brian is thinking about himself, whilst an emotional Gabby prioritizes and centres Brian’s needs over her own, as well as how sexism, a gender bias and misogyny played a role in green lighting and reinforcing Brian’s coercively controlling behaviour. This is not easy listening – but it’s important. It might just save a future life. You won’t want to miss this.

Laura has taken the decision to interrupt the Gabby Petito series to share her preliminary analyses and deconstruction of the confession letter written by Brian Laundrie, which was published on Friday 24th June. The publication of Brian Laundrie’s notebook and so-called confession is huge. The timing of it being published and the contents are fascinating. The notebook was found in Brian’s drybag by his father, Christopher Laundrie, on October 20 2021. It was released to the media by Steve Bertolino on behalf of the Laundries on Friday, following a meeting with the FBI at the Tampa Field Office. You won’t want to miss this.

In this episode Laura continues her analysis of one more post on Gabby’s Instagram account, a second post that was published on August 12, as well as analysis of Gabby’s TikiTok account, further highlighting inconsistencies and red flags. Laura shares her expert analysis of the body worn camera footage from the Moab City Police Department. Officer Daniel Robbins was the responding officer who pulled over Gabby Petito and Brian Laundrie in their van in Utah on August 12 2021 following two calls from members of the public.  One caller told despatchers: “A gentleman was slapping the girl. They ran up and down the sidewalk. He proceeded to hit her, hopped in the car, and they drove off.”  You won’t want to miss this.

Meirion takes us behind the scenes of his and Liz’s complex BBC Newsnight investigation, including how the BBC shut down the investigation and the subsequent cover up by the BBC, the health service, the West Yorkshire Police and the Crown Prosecution Service.  Laura and Meirion discuss the scale of Savile’s offending, the ecosystem that supported and enabled him and what the lessons are from this case.  Trigger warning: This case is deeply disturbing, and this episode is a difficult listen but an important conversation.

Laura interviews Meirion Jones, who along with Liz MacKean, investigated Jimmy Savile when they worked for the BBC. Together they lifted the lid on Savile’s prolific and serial sexual offending behaviour, targeting the most vulnerable in society in plain sight. Meirion takes us behind the scenes of his and Liz’s complex BBC Newsnight investigation, including how the BBC shut down the investigation and the subsequent cover up by the BBC and other institutions.  Laura and Meirion discuss the Netflix documentary ‘Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story’ including what didn’t make it into the two-part series as well as Savile’s grooming of individuals, the public and institutions and his psychology and victim preferential type. Savile may be responsible for sexually assaulting between 1000—2000 victims. Trigger warning: This case is deeply disturbing, and this episode is a difficult listen but an important conversation. We discuss sexual abuse, and you will hear a survivor graphically describe how Savile raped her and what happened afterwards. Listener discretion is advised.

What does the news the case has been solved mean for Darrell Rice, the suspect the FBI arrested and charged and then dropped the charges against? Laura and Kathryn discuss this along with other potentially linked offences including Alicia Showalter Reynolds murder and ‘The Anne’s’ who were approached by two men on the trail on June 1 1996 who knew about the double murders at a time when it was only known to the rangers and some FBI agent. Is it possible that Walter “Leo” Jackson Senior was working with another man? Listen and then join the conversation on social media and in the Crime Analyst Squad. Kathryn will join Laura for a Ringleaders Happy on August 14 2024 to dive deeper into the case.

Are you still trying to make sense of the Netflix docuseries Bad Vegan? You are not alone! So many of you asked Laura to deconstruct and analyse the case.
