    Oct 19 2026
    Zoe Watts's husband confessed to drugging and raping her, tying her up and taking intimate photographs and videos without her consent. Yet even after he disclosed what he had done to medical professionals, Zoe still didn't understand that she was being raped. In Part 2, Laura continues her interview with Zoe, unravelling his sadistic and brazen behaviour that shaped their 22-year marriage. Laura examines how Zoe's husband intentionally destabilised her and how professionals who should have recognised the danger. In this episode, Laura and Zoe unravel: Sadistic cruelty, manipulation and psychological abuse and the toll it took on Zoe; Confessions, gaslighting and deliberate confusion; Drug-facilitated rape and image-based sexual abuse; The misuse of mental health explanations to excuse abusive behaviour; Professional failures and missed opportunities to safeguard Zoe’ Coercive control, isolation and psychological undoing; Trauma, dissociation and the long road to recovery; The police becoming involved — and a terrifying break-in Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of domestic abuse, coercive control, stalking, physical violence, suffocation, sexual violence, drug-facilitated rape and image-based sexual abuse.

  • Ep 380 Remastered: The Forgotten Victims, The A1 Linked Offences, Part 3

    Ep 380 Remastered: The Forgotten Victims, The A1 Linked Offences, Part 3
    Oct 15 2026
    For decades, the women murdered and attacked by Peter Sutcliffe (known as PS in this series) were overshadowed by the man who targeted them. In this remastered Crime Analyst series, Laura Richards puts the women back at the centre of the story. Laura deconstructs the pattern of offending, escalating risk and critical opportunities that were missed, including additional attacks she believes are linked to PS and how harmful assumptions about his victims distorted the investigation. The failures in this case were instrumental in why Laura’s specialist unit at New Scotland Yard was later created. It remains one of the most misunderstood serial murder cases of our time - and why Crime Analyst refuses to use the notorious nickname that made the perpetrator famous while the women became the forgotten victims. Join Laura in the intelligence cell as she re-examines the case through behavioural analysis, victimology, risk and prevention. Listen to the complete Forgotten Victims series: https://www.crime-analyst.com/case-001-the-forgotten-victims/ ************************************************************************************* In this episode Laura analyses the A1 linked attacks committed by PS on Emily Jackson, Marcella Claxton, Irene Richardson, Debra Schlesinger, Patricia ‘Tina’ Atkinson and Jayne MacDonald and shares some startling revelations about the crimes and crime scene behaviours and what it reveals about PS.

    Zoe Watts was shocked to discover the man she had been married to for 22-year was drugging and raping her. Laura interviews Zoe and asks her to take us back to the beginning of their relationship- when she was just 17 and he was 28. He was charismatic, well-liked and seemingly the perfect partner.

  • Ep 375 Mica Francis: Profiling John-Paul Miller with Rich McHugh, Part 6

    Ep 375 Mica Francis: Profiling John-Paul Miller with Rich McHugh, Part 6
    Sep 28 2026
    Mica Francis died trying to leave John Paul Miller. She documented what was happening to her, called the Police at least 14 times, retained an attorney and filed for divorce. Less than a day after Mica’s death, John-Paul Miller stood before his congregation and announced her death, while simultaneously shaping a narrative about Mica and her mental health. Serious alarm bells went off for both Laura and award-winning investigative journalist and NewsNation correspondent, Rich McHugh. Former NBC investigative producer Rich McHugh, working with Ronan Farrow, exposed Harvey Weinstein at great personal and professional cost. You will hear more about that in this episode as well as how Rich quickly gained the trust of Mica’s family and ultimately secured an extraordinary sit-down interview with John-Paul Miller in July 2024. In this episode you will learn: How Rich’s previous investigations into Harvey Weinstein and Hillsong influenced his response when Mica’s story first emerged Why victim-centred reporting matters and how Rich approached Mica’s family The starkly different narratives Rich heard from Mica’s family and John-Paul Miller How Rich secured the interview with Miller after months of communication What Miller sent Rich privately before the interview Why Rich decided to let Miller talk rather than begin with confrontational questions What Rich noticed about Miller before he had even asked his first question Why Miller may have wanted to speak publicly and control the narrative Laura’s behavioural analysis of key moments during the interview What happened when Rich asked Miller whether he felt partly responsible The anger Rich believed he detected beneath Miller’s response Miller’s claims about Mica’s mental health and why it matters who controls the narrative when a victim can no longer speak for herself Mica’s efforts to separate, seek help and regain control of her life The failures and gaps in protection surrounding coercive control, stalking and post-separation abuse Why, despite doing so much to try to protect herself, Mica was still left without the safety she was seeking This is Part 1 of Laura’s interview with Rich McHugh.
