DNA on Trial - Juliana Redding

When 21-year-old aspiring model Juliana Redding was found strangled in her Santa Monica apartment, police uncovered a bizarre crime scene: a lit candle left in a gas-filled room intended to trigger a lethal explosion. Investigators recovered an unprecedented amount of foreign DNA...on the stove, the front door, the victim’s phone, and even her throat. Would they be able to find the source of that DNA. And if they did, would it even matter? -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Wait...That's Weird - Interview with Anna Sonoda

Anna Sonoda, LCSW is a graduate of Emory University, where she double-majored in Anthropology and French Studies, and earned her Master’s in Social Work from the University of Georgia in 2006. She became a licensed clinical social worker in 2009. With a career spanning counseling convicted sexual offenders, working in residential mental health, leading anger management and domestic violence programs, and supporting individuals with dual diagnoses, Anna brings rare, front-line expertise into the realities of predatory behavior. As both a clinician and a mother, she recognized a profound gap: society reacts to child sexual abuse after the fact but rarely teaches families how to stop it before it begins. Buy Anna's Books!

What a duo.! Thank you for the respectful way you treat each case. Heartbreak knows no boundaries and when it comes the impact is gut wrenching. You remind us beneath the surface of devastation often there is a family who is reeling from losing someone who meant the world to them.

Hey guys, my partner and I love your podcast. We listen to your episodes whilst camping in remote regions of the Northern Territory, Australia. We especially love listening at nighttime in the tent, for extra unnerving scariness. Nothing like a rustle in the bushes to make your episodes super dramatic. Well researched and en pointe. We especially love how it’s all meat and no waffle. Love your show, Francesca and Rodney, Darwin, Australia 🇦🇺
