Convicted on Bite Mark Evidence P1: The Charles McCrory Case

In 1985, Charles McCrory found his wife, Julie Bonds, brutally murdered in their Andalusia, Alabama, home. Just two small marks on her arm—misrepresented in court as a definitive “bite mark”—became the sole forensic evidence used to convict him for her murder. A forensic odontologist, famed for testifying at Ted Bundy’s trial, claimed the impressions matched McCrory’s like a fingerprint. Yet decades later, that same expert fully recanted the testimony, acknowledging the scientific consensus now recognises bite mark evidence as unreliable “junk science”. With no blood, no DNA, and hair in the victim’s hand that didn’t match McCrory’s, his conviction rested entirely on this flawed forensic interpretation. Over 40 years later, even as two independent forensic dentists testified that the so called bite mark was never human, Alabama courts repeatedly denied him a new trial, judging that his lengthy imprisonment still stood, and that procedural hurdles outweighed modern science In July 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to review his case. Justice Sotomayor warned that wrongful convictions like his, based on “faulty science,” are startlingly common and urged state and federal lawmakers to enact stronger safeguards to prevent miscarriages of justice.

Independent Act or Shared Guilt? - Pamela Schrader

The law says that if you play a role in a crime, you can be treated as a principal, even if you never carried out the violence yourself. That’s what happened to Pamela Shrader, a woman struggling with addiction whose words led to a man’s death. But was it an independent act by the killer, Noe Pena, or a crime she must share full responsibility for? While the trigger man took a plea deal and will soon be eligible for parole, Pam faces the very real probability of spending the rest of her life behind bars. Is that justice? As always, it’s your chance to step into the jury box, hear the case, and make up your own mind. EARLY AND AD FREE ACCESS: for as little as $1.69 a week!

The Vanishing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370

On March 8th, 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 departed Kuala Lumpur bound for Beijing with 239 people on board. Less than an hour into the flight, the Boeing 777 vanished from radar screens—and seemingly vanished from the face of the Earth. What followed was the largest and most expensive search operation in aviation history, spanning years and covering vast stretches of the Indian Ocean. But despite cutting-edge technology, international cooperation, and countless theories, the question remains: what happened to MH370? This is the complete story of modern aviation's greatest mystery. From the last routine communication with air traffic control to the bizarre sequence of events that followed—the transponder going dark, the dramatic turn off course, the silent flight for hours into the southern Indian Ocean. We examine the evidence, the satellite data, the debris that washed ashore years later, and the heartbreaking search that consumed nations. Was it mechanical failure? Pilot suicide? Hijacking? A catastrophic decompression? Or something else entirely? We explore every major theory, the facts that support them, and the questions that still have no answers. Over a decade later, MH370 remains one of the most baffling disappearances in history—a modern aircraft with sophisticated tracking systems that simply ceased to exist, leaving behind only fragments, theories, and the anguished families still searching for truth.

Charged with attempted murder, twice - Kimberly Boone Part 1

Welcome back to One Minute Remaining. Today is part one of my chat with Kimberly Boone. Kim was as she puts it a 'normal suburban mum' raising two boys and married to a man she says was her best friend, a man she never argued with. A series of events would lead to the eventual arrest of Kim for pre meditated attempted murder, after a shooting at her home in the early hours of one morning, Kim says she accidently shot her husband thinking he was an intruder. After supplying police with a statement she was instantly arrested and charged with his attempted murder. While in jail awaiting her trial she would be charged with arson and pre meditated attempted murder for a house fire that occurred four months prior to the shooting. Kim has always maintained she is innocent of these crimes and has been fighting for 14 years to clear her name. As always I am not here to try and prove her innocent or guilty, juts give her the opportunity to tell her story, a story I'm sure you will agree is quite incredible.

Killer Doctors P2 - Bruce Sackman

Recently I have been watching the series Dr Death on the streaming service Stan here in Australia. It's a true crime series that is extremally unnerving as both season 1 and 2 tell stories of Dr's who would weave a web of lies, manipulation and utter devastation. Countless patients would have their lives forever changed at the hands of these men, men who they were supposed to be able to trust, with some patients even dying from what was done to them. I wanted to find out more about this world and these Dr's and nurses who go from taking an oath to help people to ultimately destroing lives. So today I sit down with former Special Agent Bruce Sackman for a fascinating and quiet terrifying two part discussion on medical serial killers. When veterans hospital patients who are recovering well all of a sudden start to die in increasing numbers, it’s up to VA Special Agent in Charge Bruce Sackman to find out why. His shocking discovery rips open the hidden world of what goes on behind the bedside curtains when a killer doctor or nurse decides a patient must die, as detailed in his book Behind the Murder Curtain. The true story of Bruce Sackman, Special Agent in Charge of the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Inspector General. Sackman’s main responsibilities had been investigating white-collar crimes such as embezzlement when he is drawn into the macabre world of doctors and nurses who murder their patients. Sackman evolves from an investigator of routine cases to the world’s leading expert on Medical Serial Killers—MSKs—doctors and nurses who ply their evil trade hidden behind the privacy curtain at a patient’s bedside. Behind the Murder Curtain tells how this dedicated investigator brought down four MSKs in Veterans Hospitals while developing the RED FLAGS PROTOCOL, which is now taught to investigators and forensic nurses throughout the world as a tool for stopping an MSK.

A Misdiagnosed Murder P3 - Henry Keogh

Henry Keogh is an Australian convicted of murder. He grew up in Adelaide, South Australia and was educated at Saint Ignatius College and briefly at the School of Dentistry at The University of Adelaide. In 1995 he was sentenced to 26 years in prison for the 1994 murder of his 29-year-old fiancée, Anna-Jane Cheney, then head of Professional Conduct at the Law Society of South Australia: it was alleged that Keogh had planned the murder for over two years. Mr Keogh and his family have always maintained his innocence, and raised their doubts regarding some of the evidence upon which the conviction was based. Mainly that of South Australia's former Chief Forensic Pathologist Dr Manock. Henry admitted to signing five life insurance policies on behalf of Cheney. Whereas the prosecution alleged the combined value of $1.15 million AUD was motive for the murder, Henry says that these were submitted to prevent insurance agencies he had established from lapsing, and that the amount eligible to claim was closer to $400,000. The prosecution would conceded during the trial that Anna-Jane was aware of at least two of these policies. After over 20 years Henry would subsequently be released from prison on appeal, the prosecution would look to take him back to court on the charges but it would never eventuate. This is the story of Henry Keogh as told by him. To join the OMR family and start enjoying the bonus extras click HERE EARLY AND AD FREE ACCESS: for as little as $1.69 a week!

Susan Smith: The 1994 Case That Shocked America

On October 25th, 1994, Susan Smith reported that a Black man had carjacked her vehicle at gunpoint with her two young sons still inside. Three-year-old Michael and fourteen-month-old Alexander were gone, taken by a stranger into the South Carolina night. For nine days, the nation watched as Susan and her husband David made tearful pleas on television for their children's safe return. "America's children," the media called them. Thousands of tips poured in. Law enforcement from across the country joined the search. But investigators were noticing inconsistencies. A traffic light that shouldn't have been red. A friend who wasn't home. Small details that didn't add up. On November 3rd, 1994, Susan Smith confessed to the unthinkable: she had driven to John D. Long Lake, strapped her sons in their car seats, and let the car roll into the water whilst she stood on the shore and watched them drown. Tonight on Crime at Bedtime, we examine the case that shocked the world. ONTENT WARNING: This episode contains detailed descriptions of child murder and maternal filicide.

Murder in Cabin 28: The Keddie Mystery

In April 1981, 36-year-old Glenna “Sue” Sharp and her five children were living in Cabin 28 of the Keddie Resort, a rural and rundown former holiday spot in northern California. On the morning of April 12th, Sue, her 15-year-old son John, and John’s friend Dana Wingate were found brutally murdered in the living room. The bodies had been bound, stabbed, and bludgeoned with what investigators believed was a claw hammer and a knife. Sue’s 12-year-old daughter, Tina, was missing. Despite extensive investigations, no arrests were ever made — and when Tina’s remains were discovered three years later in a remote forest, the mystery deepened further. In this episode, we unravel one of America’s most haunting and frustrating unsolved cases. Become a Patreon or Apple + subscriber now for ealry and ad free access from as little as $1.69 a week.
