  1. Murder at the U

    Murder at the U

    In 2006, University of Miami football player Bryan Pata was shot outside his apartment coming home from practice. On the ten-year anniversary of the death, police invited ESPN to look into the cold case. The reporters found cops had many viable suspects, including a teammate with a compelling motive and shaky alibi. But the journalists also came to find their law enforcement sources to be unreliable partners, and eventually their story turned into both a quest to find Pata’s killer and an investigation into the investigation. From ESPN’s 30 for 30 Podcasts comes “Murder at the U.” Host Paula Levine takes listeners through her team’s exhaustive multiyear reporting into Pata’s death and its many suspects. With a murder trial about to begin in Florida, the podcast also focuses on the police and prosecutors who started as collaborators on their reporting, but eventually became impediments. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "MURDER AT THE U" BEGIN AT THE TEN MINUTE MARK. For exclusive podcasts and more, sign up at Patreon. Sign up for our newsletter at crimewriterson.com.

  2. The Investigation of Lucy Letby

    The Investigation of Lucy Letby

    In 2016, officials at England’s The Countess of Chester Hospital began an inquest into what was causing a statistically high number of babies in the neonatal unit to die or require resuscitation. They found the cases all had one thing in common: night nurse Lucy Letby was on duty for all of them. Police accused Letby of killing the infants in a number of ways - including tampering with oxygen, feeding tubes, and insulin injections. But her lawyers said the outcomes were the result of poor care from the hospital, and the causes of death were medical, not murder.   The Netflix documentary “The Investigation of Lucy Letby” looks into the largest case of infant homicides in British history. It uses body cam and security footage to show how their probe came together and possible motives for the killings. The film also uses controversial AI technology to change the appearance of some contributors who wanted to remain anonymous. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "THE INVESTIGATION OF LUCY LETBY" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 13 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE. In Crime of the Week: fowl odor.    For exclusive podcasts and more, sign up at Patreon.

    Watching You

    In 2011, Matt Leili told police his wife Nique left their suburban Atlanta home with nothing but her toothbrush a week before her naked body was discovered in the woods. Investigators learned that for years Matt had been surveilling his family in their home through hidden cameras. Through thousands of hours of tape, police pieced together Matt's coercive and abusive marriage with Nique, but the cameras stopped rolling the night she vanished. Investigators were left with the challenge of proving Matt was the killer when they had evidence of everything in their lives - except the murder.   From Sony Music Entertainment and Wavland Media comes “Watching You,” the latest season from The Binge. Host Jonathan Hirsch walks listeners through the murder of Nique Leili. It illustrates the couple’s troubling relationship through recordings from inside their home. It also chronicles the journey of the couple’s children who took opposing sides in the case. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "WATCHING YOU" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

    Secret Mall Apartment

    Combing passages within the newly-built Providence Place mall, a group of local artists located an unused, overlooked space within the building. They sneaked in furniture and construction supplies, and fashioned a small apartment under the noses of management and security guards. Though the confederates used the space like a club house, they considered the project a political and artistic commentary on gentrification and consumerism. They filmed themselves for four years, but they could not avoid detection forever.  The 2024 documentary film “Secret Mall Apartment” is now available on Netflix. It shows Michael Townsend and his crew building and maintaining the space. The film shows how the clandestine project was more than just a plucky urban legend, but also an artistic statement about community and capitalism.

    Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart

    The brazen kidnapping of 14-year-old Elizabeth Smart from her bedroom captivated the nation. And when their main suspect died in custody, police feared they’d never learn her fate. But Elizabeth was still alive, being held in the woods, and facing daily abuse at the hands of her captors. Though investigators thought of it as a cold case, the Smart family continued their search. And a clue from Elizabeth’s younger sister about the kidnapper’s identity led to her dramatic rescue and emotional family reunion.  In the Netflix documentary film “Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart,” we hear from Elizabeth herself about her nine month ordeal, as well as from loved ones and investigators who worked to bring her home. She explains how she survived in captivity, the physical and psychological abuse she suffered, and why she passed on earlier chances to escape.

    What Happened in Nashville

    Sydney McDowell was preparing for the last steps in her fertility journey. But when she went to Nashville’s Center for Reproductive Health for a final check-up, she learned the clinic was abruptly closing, and what would happen to her frozen embryos was unclear. Hundreds of families who’d paid thousands of dollars were left in the lurch, unable to recover their money or their embryos. As the would-be mothers compared notes, they said they missed many red flags that something wasn’t right at this fertility clinic. From School of Humans and iHeartPodcasts comes “What Happened in Nashville.” Host Melissa Jeltsen brings the heartwrenching stories of those whose dreams of conceiving were dashed. She also explores the background of the clinic’s owner-operator, attempts to hold him accountable, and the lingering deficiencies in regulating this kind of medicine. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "WHAT HAPPENED IN NASHVILLE" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE. In Crime of the Week: rolling in the dough. For exclusive podcasts and more, sign up at Patreon.

  7. Collateral Damage

    Collateral Damage

    From no-knock warrants and phony police informants to civil forfeiture and international narcotics interdiction, the US war on drugs has affected more than just traffickers. Its highly provocative methods have caused the deaths of innocent bystanders, often with no consequences for those responsible.  Animated by decades of political cries stoking fear and anger, police departments have gained more power in their tactics, which look more like combat than law enforcement. And the deaths of people caught in the crossfire are now accepted as necessary sacrifices in the quest for a drug-free America.  In each episode of the podcast “Collateral Damage” from The Intercept, investigative reporter Radley Balko covers an unjust or avoidable death as a result of the government’s questionable enforcement policies and practices. The series distills the war on drugs down to the personal stories of bystanders who lost their lives or livelihood as collateral damage to the dangerous and quixotic goal of saving a nation from itself. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "COLLATERAL DAMAGE" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 10 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE. For exclusive podcasts and more, sign up at Patreon. Sign up for our newsletter at crimewriterson.com.
