True Crime DEADLINE Matt Johnson

NEW INTERVIEW: With Kerri Rawson, daughter of Dennis Rader known as the BTK Serial Killer.  Which stands for “Bind, Torture, Kill” a nickname he gave himself during a cat-and-mouse game with press and police.
Rader is now the “Prime Suspect” in the 1976 disappearance of Cynthia Kinney, a16-year-old cheerleader who was last seen at a laundromat in Pawhuska, Oklahoma.
And the murder of 22-year-old Shawna Beth Garber, whose body was discovered in December 1990 in Mcdonald County, Missouri. An autopsy revealed she had been raped, strangled and bound. The same Modus Operandi as Rader.
Rawson opens up about life at home with Rader and how she recently spoke with him in prison to help investigators solve the cold cases.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: With a witness to the murder of college student Jody LeCornu.

Plus an interview with her twin sister Jenny Carrieri who is on a mission to solve the cold case murder.

Jody was a student at Towson University in Baltimore Maryland when she was murdered in cold blood on March 2, 1996. Today her identical twin sister Jenny Carrieri is ramping up the investigation to find her sisters killer.
On that Saturday morning, the 23-year-old had gotten into a fight with her boyfriend over drinking and going to a local bar without him. 
Jody went to work that day, then went back to the 'Mt. Washington Tavern', her favorite hang out and stayed there till the bar closed. 
An employee asked Jody to take a employee home because it was snowing. Jody drove him home, then bought a six pack, and started drinking in a parking lot where her killer approached her car, shot and killed her. Then he followed her across the street where she crashed, he put her car in park and then stole something from her car, in front of several people watching.
Jody's family is offering a $100,000 cash reward for information leading to the killers arrest.
The suspect in 1996 was described as a black man, between 5'10" to 6'2", 200-220 pounds, 20-30 years old, stocky build, driving a white BMW.
Anyone with information please call Baltimore County Police Department or Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-866-7LOCKUP.

LOST INTERVIEW: Sister of murdered actress Sharon Tate Speaking Out over fear of Manson Followers being released from prison.
Matt Johnson opens the TRUE CRIME VAULT for his interview with Debra Tate. (Note: It’s an older interview but fascinating with lesser known facts. Including: Tate smuggled herself into the L.A. County jail and looked Charles Manson in the eyes after he was arrested.)


In July 2023, Manson Family Cult follower Leslie Van Houten was released from state prison in Corona California. 


The 73 years old was convicted of brutally killing Leno and Rosemary LaBianca in 1969. During a parole hearing she admitted to holding Rosemary down with a pillow case as Leno was murdered in the room next door. Then, Charles “TEX” Watson and Van Houten stabbed Rosemary 16 times.


The Manson Murders remain a life sentence for family and friends of the victim’s. Tate is an outspoken victim’s right’s advocate and runs a website to keep other living Manson Family members from being paroled. 


In 2017 Cult Leader Charles Manson died behind bars of natural causes. He was 83.
