  • Primary vs Predominant Aggressor Assessment
    Jan 14 2026

    In this quick informational mini, we discuss the laws in Colorado (and other states) requiring law enforcement to make an arrest in any domestic violence call, as well as the criteria they must use to determine who should be taken in. We talk about the difference between primary aggressor at the scene and predominant aggressor in the relationship, and how these criteria should have been applied in the Petito case and how, if they had, we believe Gabby Petito would still be alive

  • The Puppet Master: Holly Ann Elkins and Her Proxy (with special guest!)
    Jan 9 2026

    What do you do with a killer in your family? Our special guest gives us the inside scoop! In 2020, the murder of 24-year-old Alyssa Burkett shocked Carrollton, Texas. While her ex-boyfriend, Andrew Beard, pulled the trigger, he wasn't acting alone. This episode explores the role of Holly Ann Elkins, the fiancée who spent months meticulously destroying Alyssa’s life. From planting drugs and guns in the victim's car to purchasing the (very offensive!) makeup used in Beard’s disguise, we examine how Elkins acted as the puppet master, goading her partner into committing the unthinkable.
