POOL PARTY MASSACRE

In the news Thursday 18 July was a beautiful mid-summer day in rural Alabama. At the vast home of Bill Morrow, extended relations of the Morrow and Kendrick families had gathered to celebrate the birthday of Colton Daniels. Colton was about to turn nine and couldn't have been more excited. Not only was he celebrating all day, playing in the pool with his cousins, aunts and uncles, but the children would be staying the night at their great-grandfather Bill's home. Colton was at the party with his mum, Jessica Morrow, and his little sister Haley, who was just six. The following day, Jessica was due to have a planned surgery, so her niece Kelse Kendrick, who was also at the party, had offered to care for the children. Kelse had…

ACTOR CHARGED OVER ‘SEXUAL ASSAULTS’

CRIME NEWS TOP STORIES FROM AROUND THE GLOBE US actor Gabriel Olds has been charged with seven counts of sexual assault, including rape, sodomy, assault and injuring a partner. US police confirmed the NCIS star, 52, was arrested last month, after a woman alleged he had raped her in her home in January 2023. Two more alleged victims then came for ward, saying their attacks dated back ten years. LAPD Detective Brent Hopkins said in a statement, “ We heard the same story again and again. Mr Olds started off charming, but then used brutal violence to carry out these rapes. Some of these survivors suffered in silence for years before finding the strength to speak up. Now that he's off the streets, we want to make sure everyone has…

ACTOR CHARGED OVER ‘SEXUAL ASSAULTS’

ANCHORAGE KILLER ‘HAS ANOTHER VICTIM’

CRIME NEWS CASES UPDATE Relatives of a missing woman identified on the phone of convicted murderer Brian Smith are demanding an investigation into her death. In July, truck driver Smith was sentenced to 226 years for killing Alaska Native women Kathleen Henry, 30, and Veronica Abouchuk, 52. He was caught when a woman stole his mobile phone, only to find horrifying footage of Smith torturing and killing Kathleen in a hotel room. After his sentencing, photos taken from Smith's phone were revealed and last month, a family claimed an unconscious woman in one image is Cassandra Boskofsky, who disappeared in August 2019. They now say police are neglecting to investigate, and protestors gathered outside the Anchorage Police Department to demand action. Cassandra's cousin Marcella Boskofsky-Grounds told reporters, “It felt like she…

ANCHORAGE KILLER ‘HAS ANOTHER VICTIM’

INMATE GETS FOUR YEARS FOR WHITEY MURDER

A prisoner has been sentenced to an extra four years for his part in the killing of Mobster James “Whitey” Bulger. Massachusetts gangster Paul J. DeCologero originally pleaded not guilty in relation to the 2018 attack, which happened the day after Bulger was transferred to US Penitentiary Hazleton in Bruceton Mills, West Virginia. He was allegedly targeted for “being a snitch”, and it's claimed DeCologero and fellow inmate Fotios “Freddy” Geas used a lock attached to a belt to beat him around the head. Both were charged with murder and conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, but DeCologero pleaded guilty to assault last month. Geas is due in court on 6 September. Bulger was convicted of multiple gangland crimes in 2013, after years on the run.…

R. KELLY ATTEMPTS TO OVERTURN CONVICTION

Disgraced music star R. Kelly is attempting to use a legal technicality to nullify his 2022 convictions for child pornography and sexual abuse. Kelly, 57, groomed three young women during the 1990s and early 2000s, and was sentenced to 20 years for “enticing teenage girls to engage in sexual activity”. He lost an appeal to overturn the convictions in April, but now his legal team have written to the US Supreme Court arguing that, “Congress, when extending the statute of limitations on such offenses in 2003, did not expressly intend to retroactively punish him for conduct going back to the 1990s”. Kelly is also serving 30 years for racketeering and sex trafficking.…

SCAMMED TO SEXWORK

In the news Gina Rita Russell couldn't see the future or predict what might happen. Yet, the 35 year old was able to convince people she was a psychic, which in turn allowed her to coerce two women into sex work to pay for her cleansing them of negative energy, as well as mastermind an extortion scheme that saw one man embezzle more than $4million. In July, she was sentenced to a decade behind bars, with lawyers declaring, “Russell is a dangerous woman dedicated to exploiting others”. But how did she get away with it? CHANCE MEETING In October 2009, Russell encountered Hollie Nadel on a street in Manhattan and offered to give her a psychic reading. Russell told Hollie she was full of negative energy and bad things would…

HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT

In the news W hen 22-yearold Katelyn Markham went missing from her home in Fairfield, Ohio, in August 2011, the case struck a chord so deep that people from all over the US came together to try and find her. Members of the public journeyed hundreds of miles to join one of the many searches for the sunny and joy-filled graphic arts student. On the evening of 13 August, the town had been awash with smiling faces and fun seekers attending the Sacred Heart Festival. The unusually busy period for the town filled it with strangers, which was why Katelyn's fiancé John Carter was so concerned about not being able to reach his partner. In a distressed 911 call on 14 August, he said, “My name is John Carter… I…

‘VIOLENCE AGAINSTWOMEN AND GIRLS ISA HUGE PROBLEM’

In the news The recent tragic deaths of three young girls as they attended a Taylor Swiftthemed holiday club in Southport shocked the nation. Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, Bebe King, six, and seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe were killed by a knifeman on 29 July, with ten others – eight children and two adults – seriously injured in the attack. Axel Rudakubana, 18, has been charged with murder, attempted murder, and possession of a bladed article in a public place. He has been remanded into custody ahead of a plea hearing on 25 October, with his trial provisionally set for January 2025. “Elsie, Bebe and Alice cruelly lost their young lives in such horrific circumstances,” said senior coroner Julie Goulding. “The three young children were full of life and energy,…

SHOULD ‘KIDFLUENCING’ BEILLEGAL?

In the news Sharenting – a mash-up of sharing content and parenting – is a hugely lucrative business. Family vlogs on platforms like YouTube and TikTok can reap six-figure brand deals and sponsored ads. But there is also a sinister side to the phenomenon, with older kids now speaking out about stolen childhoods, trauma and child labour. Because, unlike child actors in the film industry, there is scant regulation around consent, the maximum hours a child can film, financial remuneration, or the “right to be forgotten”. FROM DUBIOUS TO CRIMINAL There has been plenty of dubious behaviour since sharenting became mainstream. In 2017, family vloggers Myka and James Stauffer adopted an autistic toddler from China and every aspect of the process was shared. But after two-and-a-half years – and only…

KIDFLUENCING LAWSAROUND THE WORLD

UK: Under existing UK laws, child influencers have no rights as they are underage. Recently, there has been discussion over laws to prevent child exploitation by parents online. AMERICA: In Illinois, since 1 July this year, parents must compensate their children for video content, putting 50 per cent of profits into a trust fund for access at 18. California and Washington are pushing through similar laws. FRANCE: Since 2020, kid influencing is classed as child labour in a new “exploitation of the image of children on online platforms” law, and earnings made must be given to them at 16. They also have the “right to be forgotten”, whereby platforms must permanently delete childhood posts if requested.…

‘THERE ARE MULTIPLE SERIAL KILLERS ON OUR HIGHWAYS’

After working for the FBI for 25 years, Frank Figliuzzi thought he knew everything about America's criminal underbelly. But a chance conversation with Catherine DeVane, who's led the Highway Serial Killings (HSK) Initiative for 17 years, made him realise there was a breed of predators he didn't know about terrorising the country's roads: serial killer truckers. Among those responsible for hundreds of gruesome murders over the years are Robert Ben Rhoades, known as the Truck Stop Killer, who built a torture chamber in the back of his rig to kidnap, torture, rape and kill as many as 50 suspected victims over an estimated 15 years; Dellmus Colvin –the Interstate Strangler – who confessed to killing around 52 women; and Bruce Mendenhall, aka the Rest Stop Killer, serving life for the…

ANATOMY OF A TRIAL KAREN READ

In January 2022, John O'Keefe, 46, was found lying in deep snow outside a house in Boston, Massachusetts. Suffering from hypothermia, it was thought he had been hit by a car and left to die. Days later, his girlfriend Karen Read, 44, was charged with murder, but she denied being involved, insisting she was being framed. In July, her trial ended in deadlock and she'll be retried next year – but some believe she may be innocent. THE SUSPECT Read – an equity analyst at an investments firm – was charged with second-degree murder, vehicular manslaughter while driving under the influence, and leaving the scene of a collision causing death. She pleaded not guilty and was released on $50,000 bail. She claims she left John just after midnight, but when…

THE GREAT BOY BAND CON

CRIMEMONTHLY Must-See TV The nineties were the heyday of the boy band. Teenagers across the world couldn't get enough of the flood of floppy-haired pretty boys and faux bad boys harmonising and back-flipping their way around the world's biggest stadiums. On this side of the Atlantic, we had Take That, Boyzone and Westlife, while over in the US, it was New Kids On the Block who spearheaded the money-spinning musical craze. Formed in 1984, Donnie Wahlberg and four similarly cute young men achieved mega-stardom with their 1990 breakthrough hit Step By Step, going on to sell over 80million records worldwide. Unsurprisingly, it wasn't long before others tried to jump on the gravy train. One such hopeful was manager Lou Pearlman, who created Backstreet Boys, swiftly followed by Justin Timberlake's NSYNC. But…

THE TRAIL SIDE KILLER

CRIMEMONTHLY SERIAL KILLER SECRETS For many Californians, heading out into the picturesque mountains is the ultimate way to get away from it all. With breathtaking views, blue skies, green forests and stunning scenery, it's a chance to relax and refresh mind and body. But in the late 1970s and ’80s, those trails became a place of true terror as serial killer David Carpenter used them as his own personal hunting grounds. EARLY LIFE Born in San Francisco on 6 May 1930, Carpenter's childhood was marked by abuse and ridicule. His father Elwood was a domineering bully, who would physically abuse his wife Frances and their young son, while Frances was cold and detached. Growing up either abused or ignored, Carpenter would go on to develop a severe stammer and frequently wet…

LYNDA LA PLANTE: ‘YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE IN YOUR SELF’

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW Lynda La Plante CBE is a tour de force. The creative brains behind Widows and Prime Suspect may have just turned 81, but she has no intention of slowing down, with a new book series and TV idea in the works. First, though, comes her memoir, sharing all the highs and lows of her incredible life. Here, she tells us a little about what we can expect… What made you want to write your memoir now? I was asked to write it by my publisher, and I actually took some persuading. But then I thought about it and realised I have lived a long and varied life, both personally and professionally. I've been an actress; have produced, written and cast over 170 hours of television; and published over…

SWAT U NCOVERED

THE BIG READ The police had already set up a perimeter when Larry Phillips Jr. and Emil Mătăsăreanu emerged from the Bank of America in Hollywood on the morning of 28 February 1997. A passing LAPD patrol car had earlier noticed the pair walk in through the front doors of the building, and when automatic gunfire erupted from inside minutes later, the “Shots fired” call was sent out over the radio and reinforcements assembled. The police now had all four corners of the bank covered as they waited for what would later become known as the “Battle of North Hollywood” to begin. It was 9.24 am when Phillips and Mătăsăreanu reappeared. They had locked 30 bank staff and customers into the vault and were clutching their haul of $303,305 in bags…

THE BRITISH SWAT

Although the UK police do not routinely carry firearms, the closest (and largest) equivalent in the country is SCO19, the armed division of the Metropolitan Police in London. The numbers of SCO19 officers fluctuate, but the unit is at various times between 550 and 800 strong. Under the overall control of the Met Commissioner, but run day-to-day by a Chief Superintendent, it is made up of AFOs (Authorised Firearms Officers) who can be split into sub groups. These include three-person ARV (Armed Response Vehicle) teams, CTSFOs (Counter Terrorist Specialist Firearms Officers), TPUs (Trojan Proactive Units), which are mobile, visible deterrents, and SROs (Specialist Rifle Officers). Police shootings across England and Wales are incredibly rare, with just three fatal incidents in 2022-23. The deadliest 12-month period in the last two decades…

STOLEN IN THE NIGHT

HISTORIC CRIME For Polly Klaas and her two friends, Friday 1 October 1993 was meant to be the date of a fun-filled sleepover party at Polly's mum's house in Petaluma, California. Polly's parents were separated and she split her time between her mother's home and her father Marc's. But what would otherwise have been a typical preteen get-together was about to turn into a night of terror for the three 12 year olds. Polly and her friend Gillian Pelham had been waiting outside when their third pal, Kate McLean, arrived at 8.30pm. The three girls went inside and, at 9.45pm, Polly's mum Eve Nichol told the overexcited girls to keep the noise down. She was suffering from a migraine, and soon after, took some medication that would allow her to…

CRIME screen YOUR GUIDE TO THE MONTH'S UNMISSABLE ENTERTAINMENT FIRST LOOK TV Not since the heady days of 24 have we had a thriller series that played out in real-time (although last year's Idris Elba vehicle Hijack gets an honourable mention).

The opener is subtitled “Glasgow To Motherwell” and sees Roag board the train to the capital to visit his son, but early into the journey, a major incident occurs (no spoilers) leaving the driver incapacitated and the speeding train in the…

REAL CRIME Having been released from prison earlier this year after serving seven years for murdering her mother, Gypsy Rose Blanchard has been having her say.

BOLD DRAMA Series one of Sherwood was one of the drama highlights of 2022. It explored tensions within a working-class community riven by conflict dating back to the miners’ strike in the 1980s, while also working as an engrossing crime thriller. Now, here's the second series, and it's very bit as ambitious and powerful as the first. This time, local drug gangs intersect with environmental concerns and the devastating impact of gun violence. Morrissey returns as now-ex cop Ian St Clair, who's working as the leader of a new Violence Intervention Team. The main storyline kicks off with troubled youth Ryan Bottomley (Oliver Huntingdon) and a shocking moment of violence. His adoptive mother Pam (Sharlene Whyte) and her brother Dennis (David Harewood) are soon swept up in the fallout of…

Gary Oldman pulls on his best stained slacks and worn-out blazer to return as schlubby spook Jackson Lamb in a fourth run of the brilliant espionage thriller. Once again, Lamb is the dysfunctional father figure for the shower of MI5 misfits and failures banished to Slough House (actually located near London's Barbican, fact fans). Set six months after the events of series three, River Cartwright (Jack Lowden, who was Emmy nominated for his role) is increasingly worried about his grandfather Sam “OB” (or Old Bastard) Cartwright's worsening senility. Then two things happen in fairly quick succession: a shopping centre blows up, killing multiple people, and a person who looks remarkably like River breaks into OB's home. With all the twists and turns that make this series so addictive, as well…

THE HUNT FOR THE CHAMELEON KILLER

CRIMEscreen ON THE TRAIL OF A MURDERER For most of the late ’90s and early ’00s, Elaine Antoinette Parent was one of the most-wanted women in the world. Born in 1942, police first became aware of her in 1990, after a fisherman discovered the headless body of a woman dumped in a canal on the edge of the Florida Everglades. It was later identified as that of Beverly McGowan, a 34-year-old bank clerk from Miami. The investigation eventually led police to Beverly's roommate, one Elaine Parent. What followed was a two-decades long manhunt for Parent, which revealed her to be a master identity thief who travelled the world under one of her known 150-plus aliases. This documentary speaks to law enforcement from all over the globe who were involved in the…

THE HUNT FOR THE CHAMELEON KILLER

DEADLY BRIDE There are now so many so-called “Black Widows”, we might need to start numbering them to tell the difference. This docuseries explores the case of Dena Thompson, who earned her own deadly moniker via a sustained campaign of fraud, deception, bigamy and murder throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Using lonely-hearts columns, Thompson lured a succession of men into becoming her lovers and husbands, before persuading them to give up their life savings, homes, families and even their freedom, often using bizarre cover stories. For instance, her first husband ended up homeless after she convinced him to go on the run because the Mafia were after him. Dena was finally caught in 2003 and convicted of murder, but after 19 years behind bars, she has been released from prison.…

BEHIND THE HEADLINES

What was the inspiration behind your debut novel? I was inspired to write Isolation Island when I was evacuated from the I'm A Celebrity castle in North Wales during a violent storm. I'd wanted to write a thriller for years and had a character living in my imagination since 2012 – a journalist called Lauren. As I was driven away from Gwrych Castle, I knew I'd found the perfect place to send her – a reality TV show that goes disastrously wrong. What do you enjoy most about crime? Ever since I first read Agatha Christie, I've devoured crime novels. I love the twists and turns, and the brilliant puzzles. I'd dreamed for years of writing one of my own, but I never thought I'd dare, until I interviewed Jeffrey…

A year after Dana went missing, the body of Shauna Garber was discovered, and now Phelps is working with local detectives to discuss the similarities between the two murders. While any podcast surrounding an unsolved case is never going to have a satisfying ending, there is a reason that this mystery has gripped the world for 35 years. This is a winding and compelling listen with a twist every…

She adored her owner so much, she would wait outside her bedroom door every morning until April awoke.
