    Podcast Investigates Lane Bryant Murders— America's Largest Unsolved Mass Shooting In 21st Century
    May 28 2026
    On a chilly Saturday morning in February 2008, a gunman who police said was masquerading as a delivery man entered a Lane Bryant in Tinley Park, Illinois. About 40 minutes later, six women, a mix of customers and store employees, were shot execution style. Five died and one survived. By the time law enforcement arrived on the scene, the gunman slipped out of the store. Despite police releasing a sketch of the suspect just days after the tragedy, over 18 years later, his identity still eludes authorities— and a community is still looking for answers. Journalist Delia D’Ambra launched an investigation into the unsolved murders in Season 8 of CounterClock, and joins “Forbes True Crime” to discuss. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Who Is Benjaman Kyle? Docuseries Tries To Piece Together The Past Of Man Who Claimed To Have Amnesia

    Who Is Benjaman Kyle? Docuseries Tries To Piece Together The Past Of Man Who Claimed To Have Amnesia
    May 25 2026
    In 2004, a man who appeared to be in his mid-50s was found laying near a Burger King’s dumpster in Richmond Hill, Georgia. He said he suffered from amnesia— he could not remember who he was or how he got there, and claimed to only possess a handful of memories total from his life. He called himself Benjaman Kyle, and in the following years, this story of a man with seemingly no identity was featured on the news, a student documentary, and even on Dr. Phil. A decade later, the founders of Hot Snakes Media heard Benjaman Kyle’s story, and set off to film a documentary that would attempt to find out who he actually was and piece together his forgotten life. Pretty soon after they started shooting the documentary, his true identity was revealed. But the production team realized that things with Benjaman, and his past, weren’t adding up. ‘The Many Lives Of Benjaman Kyle’ co-executive producers Shannon and Eric Evangelista and former FBI special agent and EP Ken Maxwell joined "Forbes True Crime" to discuss.

  • Death Penalty On Table & Defense's 'Alternative Theories': SC Journalist Talks Murdaugh Retrial

    Death Penalty On Table & Defense's 'Alternative Theories': SC Journalist Talks Murdaugh Retrial
    May 20 2026
    In a big win for Alex Murdaugh, South Carolina’s Supreme Court overturned his convictions for the murders of his wife and son, and granted him a retrial. The ruling found that Colleton County Clerk of Court Rebecca Hill’s conduct denied “Murdaugh his right to a fair trial by an impartial jury.” The opinion also argued that during the original double murder trial, the state went “far too long and far too deep into aspects of Murdaugh's financial crimes,” and that during the retrial, the focus on those crimes has to be much shorter and limited. In 2023, months after he was found guilty of killing Maggie and Paul Murdaugh, the disgraced attorney pleaded guilty to dozens of financial crimes over stealing millions from his most vulnerable clients when he practiced law as a personal injury attorney. He is currently serving state and federal sentences concurrently, which are 27 years and 40 years, respectively. In response to the news of a retrial, South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson said that the state is going “back to square one on this case,” and didn’t rule out the death penalty. Mandy Matney is a South Carolina-based journalist whose reporting broke multiple stories central to the Murdaugh saga. Matney, who served as executive producer of the series "Murdaugh: Death in the Family," joins "Forbes True Crime" to discuss this latest development. Learn more about your ad choices.
