Real Crime Profile

We continue our step-by-step analysis of Laci Peterson’s victimology, the timeline and Scott Peterson’s behavior leading up to the day of her disappearance on December 24th 2002. When there are competing narratives about what happened and why it happened, Jim and Laura connect the dots and flag what is most important. As a domestic abuse and coercive control expert, Laura highlights that pregnancy and separation are high risk factors for serious harm and femicide and Jim gives us his take on other aspects of staging in this crime. #LaciPeterson #HerNameWasLaciPeterson #HisNameWasConnerPeterson #RealCrimeProfile #TrueCrime #ExpertAnalysis #Victimology #BehaviorMatters #doublehomicide #coercivecontrol #highriskCRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

When you say the name Laci Peterson many of us conjure up the sweet smiling face of a woman, who was eight months pregnant, glowing with excitement for the imminent birth of her son Conner. That image is juxtaposed with the terrible knowledge that before Laci could hold her baby in her arms, she was brutally murdered. Both Laci and Conner's bodies were found in the San Francisco Bay in April 2003. Laci's husband, Scott Peterson was convicted of her and Conner’s murder in 2004. But this case is in the news again as Peterson’s death sentence has been overturned due to problems with his jury trial. With the penalty phase of Peterson's case being re-examined, his entire conviction is being retried in many circles, with certain people claiming there is new evidence exonerating him. But is there? Join us as we breakdown the facts that matter, starting with Laci’s victimology. Laura and Jim will analyze every aspect of the case including Peterson’s behavior pre and post the murders.#LaciPeterson #HerNameWa

We continue our discussion about the case of Emanuela Orlandi, a 15 year old girl who disappeared near her Vatican City home on June 22, 1983. We also discuss the disappearance of Mirella Gregori, another 15 year old girl who went missing about a month before Emanuela.Jim and Laura analyze the cases and explain what they think happened, questioning the lack of response from the Italian police as well as the Vatican. #EmanuelaOrlandi #MirellaGregori #VacticanGirl #Rome #Italy #VictimsMatter #VaticanCity #Abduction #GirlsMatter #WomenMatter #ExpertAnalysis #TrueCrime #RealCrimeProfile #RCP*************** SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS ***************CRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

On June 22 1983, 15 year old Emanuela Orlandi was abducted on her way home from a music lesson in the center of Rome, Italy. Emanuela lived with her parents, three sisters and brother in an apartment in Vatican City, where her father worked in an administrative position for the Pope. One of the few secular families to live on the Vatican grounds, her disappearance sparked international interest, leading her grieving family down a confusing torturous road to find the truth. On today’s Real Crime Profile, Jim and Laura do what the Italian police did not, and focus on the victim, Emanuela, what we know about her life and what may have really happened to her. You can learn more about Emanuela’s story in the four part documentary “Vatican Girl” on Netflix, but beware, much of the series takes you down some very confusing rabbit holes and conspiracy theories that don't help Emanuala’s case.#HerNameWasEmanuelaOrlandi #EmanuelaOrlandi #VaticanGirl #PopeJohnPaul #Rome #Italy #ConspiracyTheories #CatholicChurch #W

We continue our conversation with Kathryn Miles about her book “Trailed: One woman’s quest to solve the Shenandoah murders” about the murders of Lollie Winans and Julie Williams in Shenandoah National Park in May of 1996. We start by talking about the FBI’s response to the case and how they profiled the possible murderer. We discuss Darrell David Rice who was law enforcement’s prime suspect in the case, the lengths they went to find evidence connecting him and if Kathryn agrees based on her research that he should have been the focus at all. #LollieWinans #JulieWilliams #Trailed #KathrynMiles #ShenandoahValley #MurderinNationalParks #WomenAreTargets #Femicide  #FBI #FindtheMurderer *************** SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS ***************CRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

In May 1996, Lollie Winans and Julie Williams were murdered at their campsite in the popular Shenandoah National Park in the middle of rural Virginia, not far from a busy tourist resort called Skyland. Many people, including park and resort staff, had seen the happy, friendly couple in the area and were alarmed when they were reported missing. As experienced outdoorswomen, Lollie and Julie knew how to take care of themselves and each other. When their bodies were discovered, despite evidence that the women had been brutally tortured and killed, law enforcement decided not alert the public that a murderer could be in the park, and in fact diverted attention away from the crime. This and other shocking facts about the case are revealed in Kathryn Miles new book “Trailed: One woman’s quest to solve the Shenandoah murders”.  We interview Kathryn about new details that have emerged about possible suspects. Jim and Laura discuss the victimology of Lollie and Julie, two extraordinary women whose famil

We finish our coverage of the Discovery plus docs-series  “House of Hammer” and re-focus on Armie Hammer’s aunt, Casey as well as on the terrible legacy of her grandfather, Armand Hammer. Jim and Laura explain why Casey Hammer would have remained so attached to her father Julian Hammer, despite his relentless abuse of her and her mother. Laura describes the conflicting nature of complex post traumatic stress.  Lisa shows Jim and Laura a recent clip from Saturday Night Live which attempted to scathingly satirize Armie Hammer’s behavior, but did it inadvertently make his victims the butt of the joke?#houseofhammer #caseyhammer  #armiehammer #domesticviolenceawarenessmonth #discoveryplus #VictimsMatter #GenerationalAbuse *************** SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS ***************CRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

October is Domestic Violence awareness month and Laura updates us on how the term “coercive control” is being used more frequently when describing domestic abuse in the media - but, it is not being correctly nor fully defined. Lisa shares her take away from reading Casey Hammer’s book “Surviving My Birthright” which contains more shocking disclosures about growing up in the wealthy and powerful Hammer family. Laura talks about “emotional dysregulation” and how victims like Casey and Gabby Petito are often misidentified when they are suffering from it. #HouseOfHammer #CaseyHammer #ArmieHammer #DiscoveryPlus #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth #VictimsMatter #CoerciveControl #YesWeWillKeepSayingIt. *************** SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS ***************CRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

We continue analyzing Courtney Vucekovich’s description of her relationship with actor Armie Hammer as documented in Discovery plus’ “House of Hammer”.Laura explains the differences between “macro-grooming” and “micro-grooming” and how she believes Hammer desensitized his intimate partners, slowly pushing their boundaries to get what he wanted. We also discuss the differences between fantasy and reality when it comes to healthy sexual behavior and the importance of consent. #houseofhammer #HerNameIsCourtneyVucekovich #ConsentMatters #Grooming #ExpertAnalysis #HouseofHammer #CaseyHammer #ArmieHammer #lovebombing #WomenMatter #DomesticAbuse #CoerciveControl #SerialAbuser #generationalentitlement #DiscoveryPlus #docuseries *************** SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS ***************CRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

In 2015, Casey Hammer, the only grand-daugher of billionaire businessman Armand Hammer, self published a memoir called "Surviving My Birthright," where she shared shocking secrets of the violence, addiction and abuse growing up in the powerful Hammer family. Despite her compelling story, no-one paid Casey's disclosures much attention until years later when her nephew, actor and Hollywood Golden Boy, Armie Hammer, made headlines with his increasingly bizarre, violent text messages, Tiktok videos and domestic abuse allegations from his former intimate partners -- which led to the new three part docu series on Discovery plus "House of Hammer".Jim and Laura forensically deconstruct Hammer's disturbing behavior and the details revealed by several women who found themselves targeted by him. Note: Armie Hammer has not been charged with a crime and he denies any allegation of abuse or rape and his lawyers have said that “any interactions” with any person were consensual.#HouseofHammer #CaseyHammer #Arm

We continue our analysis of Anthony Templet, the 17 year old boy who shot and killed his father, Burt - some would say in cold blood, others would argue it was manslaughter. Turning to focus on Theresa, his mother, whom Anthony was stolen from when he was five years old, Laura and Jim discuss the massive problems in the family court system.

To the outside world, Burt Templet seemed a devoted husband and father — as well as a successful businessman and generous provider for his family. So when his 17 year old son Anthony shot him in the head, in their Baton Rouge, Louisiana home, the community was shocked.  Many assumed that this was a murder in cold blood by a ruthless entitled teenager who lacked all emotion. But what if the opposite were actually true? What if Anthony was a long suffering victim, who finally defended himself from a serial abuser?  This is the question at the heart of the Netflix three part documentary “I Just Killed My Dad”.  Laura and Jim analyze the red flag behavior in this case, which has some huge twists and turns.

On July 24th, 1984, Brenda Lafferty and her 15 month old daughter Erica were brutally murdered in their American Fork, Utah home. Their deaths shocked this small, tight knit community of largely Latter Day Saints church members who could not imagine such a crime occurring in their town. What shocked them further was the identity of the killers.In the best selling book "Under The Banner of Heaven" investigative journalist Jon Krakaur dug deep into Brenda and Erica's case, and provided the extraordinary historical context that (he believes) led the killers to target an innocent young mother and her child. Now, Academy Award winning screenwriter, Dustin Lance Black has adapted the story for a Hulu series starring Daisy Edgar Jones as Brenda and Andrew Garfield as the detective who is sworn to bring her killers to justice.
