Let’s discuss one of the most important and uncomfortable subjects in true crime, the path from coercive control to domestic violence homicide. Using the work of forensic criminologist Dr. Jane Monckton Smith, we’re breaking down the eight-stage pattern she identified after reviewing hundreds of domestic homicide cases. This is not about blaming victims. It’s about understanding offender behavior, escalation, and the warning signs people too often miss until it’s too late.

We’ll start with two cases that are making headlines right now. In Ohio, Caleb Flynn has been charged in the shooting death of his wife, Ashley Flynn, and has pleaded not guilty. In Colorado, Barry Morphew has been indicted again in the death of his wife, Suzanne Morphew, has pleaded not guilty, and is awaiting trial. Both men are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court. What matters for this discussion is not pre-judging guilt but understanding why intimate partner homicide so often follows recognizable patterns of control, separation, stalking, fear, and escalation.

We’ll also talk about the difference between immediate fear and chronic fear, why separation can be the most dangerous moment, why strangulation matters so much, and why friends and family need to stop asking, “Why didn’t she just leave?” and start asking, “What was he doing to make leaving so dangerous?” This video provides a practical and behavioral framework that can benefit, investigators, survivors, advocates, and families alike.

Newly unsealed search warrants are giving us a much clearer picture of how investigators built the case after Charlie Kirk was killed at Utah Valley University. We’re learning more about the early confusion over a second possible suspect, the digital evidence investigators tried to pull and the surveillance trail that places Tyler Robinson on the roof above the event. We’ll talk about that alleged letter, and the messages prosecutors say point to planning and admission. Will all this expose why the defense is focused so hard on whether the state can prove which weapon fired the fatal shot?

Five years after Summer Moon-Utah Wells vanished from her home in Hawkins County, Tennessee, this case still remains unsolved. In this episode, we’ll take a fresh look at what the Summer Wells investigation is really about, what has actually happened in the last year, and what the strongest theories look like when you peel back the rumors, focus on the evidence and evaluate search science, child behavior, and investigative protocols. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says the case remains active, the AMBER Alert remains active, and investigators are still working alongside the FBI and the Hawkins County Sheriff’s Office. They have also made clear that there is still no publicly identified evidence of abduction but they are making it clear that they have not ruled out any possibility.

Let’s walk through four major questions. First, what the Summer Wells investigation is really about. Second, what the main theories look like after five years, including abduction, trafficking, murder, accident or even natural causes death. Third, what search and rescue research says about how a five-year-old child can move, hide, become quiet, get disoriented, and remain hard to find even in an aggressive search. Fourth, what we can reasonably learn, and not overclaim, from watching Don Wells and Candus Bly over time, including the pressure of losing their other children to the state, the later reporting that they signed over rights to their boys, and the way grief, public suspicion, and repeated scrutiny can harden a family into a defensive posture.

A stranger shows up at a Fairfield, California home, talks through a doorbell camera while demanding to know where a daughter is. He claims to be “Harry Dresden,” a fictional character and when he doesn’t get his way, he forces his way inside while a pregnant mother and young child are hiding in the house. Let’s discuss the Jason Thomas Nichols case from a criminal behavior and investigative perspective, looking at home selection, proximity, dress, language, escalation. We’ll separate what is known from what is still unknown, and we’ll talk about what cases like this can teach all of us about awareness, boundaries, and reducing our own risk of being victimized by someone like this. Public reporting says Nichols lived behind the family’s home which might make this seem less random, until you look at a map.

Victoria Police are investigating a historical sexual assault allegation tied to a 2010 Melbourne nightclub encounter after Ruby Rose publicly accused Katy Perry of assault. What are the allegations, who are the women involved in this case, and what Australian laws are involved? We’ll also dig into why some disclosures come years after the event and what the chances are that criminal charges will ever be filed in this case.

We’re visiting Echo, Utah, a place that held onto murderous secrets for over one-hundred years. I’m starting in the old cemetery near one of the most historic corridors in the American West, then walking into the strange and still unresolved story that seven human skeletons were discovered under a saloon after Echo’s railroad boom faded. Summit County’s own history page confirms that after the railroad moved on, seven skeletons were found under one saloon, and the surviving Echo Church and School still stands nearby as a witness to that era.

Then we’re coming forward to the present day where prosecutors in Summit County have now charged Reina Chavez-Sandobal and Francisco Santos-Morales with murder in the death of Juan Manuel Sanchez, whose body was found nearby. Investigators say the victim was drugged, beaten, transported, and dumped and the charging documents outline text messages, surveillance video, a hammer, a blood-stained blanket, and a body-disposal effort that looks far more rushed and disorganized than the alleged suspects are suggesting.

What ties these stories together is not just geography. It’s behavior. One case reflects how the dead could vanish in a frontier boomtown and stay hidden for generations. The other shows how hard it is to make a body disappear in the modern world of cameras, license plate readers, forensic pathology, and digital evidence. This case tells us something about offender planning, panic, concealment, and why dump sites are often more revealing than killers think.

Rex Heuermann has now pleaded guilty, and that changes the conversation in a big way. In this episode, I sit down with documentary filmmaker Josh Zeman to break down what happened inside the courtroom, what this plea may reveal, and what questions still hang over the Long Island Serial Killer investigation. We talk about the victims, the plea, the behavioral significance of a confession like this, and the possibility that investigators may still be working toward answers in cases that remain unresolved. We also dig into the geography of the case, why location matters, how dump-site patterns can tell a story, and what mapping can reveal when you start looking at victim recovery sites, travel routes, hunting areas, and offender comfort zones.

Most important, we keep the focus where it belongs, on the victims and the families who have waited years for answers: Maureen Brainard-Barnes, Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman, Amber Lynn Costello, Jessica Taylor, Sandra Costilla, Valerie Mack, and Karen Vergata. This case has never just been about one arrest. It’s been about behavior, victim selection, concealment, geography, and whether this plea closes the door, or opens new ones. If you’re following the Gilgo Beach investigation, the Rex Heuermann case, or the role crime mapping can play in understanding offender movement and body recovery patterns, this is a discussion you won’t want to miss.

Rex Heuermann pleaded guilty on April 8, 2026, in the Gilgo Beach murders, admitting in Suffolk County court to seven charged killings and also acknowledging Karen Vergata as an additional victim during the proceeding. Let’s break down the plea, the charges, the courtroom moment, and the part that really jumped off the page to me, the reported agreement that Heuermann will sit down with the FBI’s Behavioral Science team. Is this finally accountability, or is this one more way for a serial predator to hold onto control and secure the dark legacy he appears to want?

We’ll walk through the victims, the charges, the hearing, and the behavioral side of this case, and we’ll examine why this killer who spent years hiding in plain sight suddenly gets a chance to talk to profilers. Is it humility and accepted defeat or one last example of Heuermann’s ego, image management and attempt to write history in a way he stays relevant over time?
