I can't talk about him because he was 42 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 4: my student, and students have protection content and grades and 43 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 4: that's the way. 44 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: I knew him, understood completely understand, So BTK, I know 45 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: that is something that you've studied so closely. I think 46 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: we all have sort of seen some of your work 47 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: even around that case specifically, and it's one that we've 48 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: touched on a bit in previous episodes, but certainly not 49 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 1: with a benefit of you with us. So, and again, 50 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: if anyone's just joining us right now and wants to 51 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 1: share Live eight and eight three one Crime or you 52 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: could always leave us a talk back on the iHeartRadio 53 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: app So BTK before we even get there, Courtney, do 54 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: you want to set up a little bit of the 55 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: backgrounds of that case in case someone's listening who's not 56 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: as familiar. 57 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: Absolutely so. 58 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 5: Serial killer Dennis Rader also was known as BTK, standing 59 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 5: for Bind Torture Kill so Denis Raider terrorized Wichita and 60 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 5: Park City, Kansas for decades. Radar murdered ten people between 61 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 5: nineteen seventy four and nineteen ninety one, and then he 62 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 5: stopped killing, but continued to sort of relive his crimes 63 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 5: through fantasy. So for years, the serial killer Dennis Rader 64 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 5: blended into the community. He was a church president, a husband, 65 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 5: a father, a cub Scout leader, and this is all 66 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 5: while hiding his secret life. Now Dennis Rader resurfaced in 67 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 5: two thousand and four when he contacted the media again, 68 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 5: ultimately leading to his arrest. So, Catherine, if we can 69 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 5: ask what originally drew you to study Dennis Radar. 70 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 4: There was a woman who decided somehow got him to 71 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 4: agree to write a book with her when he was 72 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 4: first arrested in two thousand and five. In twenty tens, 73 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 4: which is five years later, I saw her on Facebook 74 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 4: and I had not heard that her book came out, 75 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 4: so I asked her, and she told me she didn't 76 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 4: want to write it, and she asked if I wanted to, 77 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 4: So I did and wrote a proposal that had to 78 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 4: pass muster with the victims' families because they really didn't 79 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 4: want a book written about him, but I proposed one 80 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 4: that would be done to benefit criminology, law enforcement, and 81 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 4: forensic psychology. And if they weren't on board with that, 82 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 4: then I didn't want to do it because I wasn't 83 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 4: really interested in just having somebody, you know, glather on 84 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 4: about himself, and they were. They thought that was a 85 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 4: good idea. And that's how it all started, really just 86 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 4: by happenstance. I saw this woman who had started things 87 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 4: up with him and then didn't want to carry it on. 88 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 5: Wow, that's so interesting and also just such a life 89 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 5: lesson on following up in general, Old Carrie where that live. 90 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 4: I have many examples of that from my writing learner. 91 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 6: And I read that book Confessions of a Serial Killer, 92 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 6: The Untold Story of Dennis Rader. It's very very good. 93 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 6: I learned so much. I read that book many many 94 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 6: years ago. It stuck with me, and I think Stephanie 95 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 6: and Courtney can attest to how much I go on 96 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 6: and on and on and on and on about it. 97 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 6: I'm very impressed. But from your extensive time with Denis Raider, 98 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 6: serialciller dennist Rader, what surprised you the most about his 99 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 6: personality or behavior exactly? 100 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 4: Well, I mean by that time I had really studied 101 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 4: a lot of Zerio. 102 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 3: Oh I'm sure you know. 103 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 4: That was twenty ten, and I had been in the 104 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 4: field for some time, and I'd worked with that bi 105 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 4: profilers and detectives, and so it wasn't that it was surprising. 106 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 4: But I had an interesting moment with him in the 107 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 4: prison where he didn't know I was coming, and when 108 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 4: the guards brought and you don't get it's not like 109 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 4: what you see on TV where you have a you know, 110 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 4: a wall like glass petition between two different rooms with 111 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 4: monitors in a maximum security prison, at least in Kansas. 112 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 4: And so I was watching them bring him in, and 113 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 4: he was putting on the what am I Hannibal elector 114 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 4: kind of grouchy thing to them, to the guards. But 115 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 4: he saw me and he did this instant change to 116 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 4: this nice guy. You know, it was pleasant, friendly. It 117 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,239 Speaker 4: was just so amazing to watch how fast he could 118 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 4: make that transition, And that, to me was part of 119 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 4: the secret of his success in having this doubled facade 120 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 4: where he'd be a family man and a churchgoer and 121 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 4: boy scout, you know, volunteer, but at the same time 122 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 4: be harboring these very dark kinds of fantasies and he 123 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 4: could just switch in and out so fast. 124 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 6: Is that the part he called cubing? Yeah, okay, So 125 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 6: doctor Catherine Ramsen explains this very well. Dennis Raider had this. 126 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 6: It was his idea, I think, right well, he. 127 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 4: Called it couping. I thought it was spelled it coe U, 128 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 4: P I N G. And but he kept talking about 129 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 4: it like it was different sides, And I thought, you 130 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 4: mean cubing so you know, he says that I came 131 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 4: up with it, but he came up with it. I 132 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 4: just spelled it correctly. 133 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 6: So for those who don't know, cubing is Dennis Raider's 134 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 6: personal term for the way he identified separate blocks or cubes, 135 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 6: each containing like different versions of himself. No, it's one cube, 136 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 6: like a Rubik's cube, right, yeah, I know. 137 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 4: It's just well, it's like most I wish I could. 138 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 4: I had my I carry around my little cube to 139 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 4: share people. I want cue multiple sides. So if you 140 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 4: can imagine, each side has a label like husband, father, 141 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 4: you know, serial killer, burglar, etc. He can shift those 142 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 4: sides around depending on the circumstances. He can pivot very 143 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 4: quickly from one to another. He has multiple faces, but 144 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 4: he's only got one face out outward at any given time, 145 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 4: depending on the circumstances. He called them life frames. So 146 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 4: the reason it's different and I think better than compartmentalizing 147 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 4: is because compartmentalizing conveys the idea that these are all 148 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 4: and containers blocked off from one another. And that's kind 149 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 4: of the way Ted Bundy described it. He talked about 150 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 4: having a security shield, but with greater is like it's 151 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 4: all integrated and they're just all available for whenever he 152 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 4: needs them. And when I saw the speed at which 153 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 4: he could make that transition, I thought, that really works 154 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 4: a lot better than this notion of compartments. 155 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: And does that mean his like emotional IQ is very 156 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: very high because again, like we're seeing things from different 157 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: perspectives very quickly. Or is that the opposite that his 158 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: IQ would be lower? 159 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 4: No, it would be that it's he's very superficial. He 160 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 4: doesn't have roots in integrity. It's all about what works 161 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 4: for me right now? How can I do people? How 162 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 4: can I get what I need for me? It's very 163 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 4: it's kind of an infantile narcissism, So it's not a 164 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 4: high emotional intelligence by any means. 165 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: It's very nutty when you hear people say that person 166 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: is all things all at once, right, they're just sort 167 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 1: of they're playing the room essentially. 168 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 4: Well, he can be different things. I don't think it's 169 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 4: like playing the room because I don't think it would 170 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 4: be he'll step from one person to the other. I 171 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 4: think it's more the circumstances. So what he needs to 172 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 4: be to pass is normal to be in church, to 173 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 4: pray with his wife. You know, these are things he 174 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 4: has to put on. It's like actors who take on 175 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 4: different roles. I worked with doctor al Carlisle, who was 176 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 4: a prison psychologist who worked with Bundy, and he came 177 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 4: up with this theory about it being like actors, and 178 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 4: we showed that to Rader while I was working with him, 179 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 4: and he thought that describes it pretty well. 180 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 3: Wow. 181 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 5: Wow, you're listening to True Crime tonight on iHeartRadio. I'm 182 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 5: Courtney here with Stephanie Leidecker and Body Move In and Weird. 183 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 5: Are so thrilled and honored to be here with doctor 184 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 5: Catlin Ramsland. If you have any questions, please hit us 185 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 5: on the talkbacks. We'd love to hear from you, Catherine. 186 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 5: Are there any large misconceptions that you feel are still 187 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 5: out there about BTK. 188 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,199 Speaker 4: There are a lot of people who decide that he's 189 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 4: like he killed John, Vinnie Ramsey, Zobeiac. You know, they 190 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 4: attribute a lot of unsolved crimes to him. So that's 191 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 4: one thing, But another is that and I keep being 192 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 4: told that I missed things because there had to have 193 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 4: been sexual abuse in his background, or there had to 194 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 4: have been a head injury, or there had to have 195 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 4: been this and that because they're going with the formulas. 196 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 4: And the reason I wanted to study Dennis Raider is 197 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 4: he was an outlier to the formulas. He shows us 198 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 4: you have to stop thinking in a formulaic way about 199 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 4: these people. Serial killer is not a criminal type. There's 200 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 4: no profile of a serial killer each it's a description 201 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 4: of a behavior, and there are many many different versions 202 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 4: of what these serial killers are. So stop with the 203 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 4: formulas already. But I think that's the one thing that 204 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 4: I find in people who are they just believe I 205 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 4: miss something because they expect some certain things in his 206 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 4: background when I didn't report on them. Then that's I'm 207 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 4: just not doing it right. And that's been annoying because 208 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 4: I spent fifteen years talking to this guy, a lot 209 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 4: more than most other people have, for sure, And I 210 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 4: don't think i'm things. I think they're just using formulas 211 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 4: to set themselves up with expectations that they believe have 212 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 4: to be true. And so we don't have to be true. 213 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 4: These are just ideas that people had, and the more 214 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 4: we've learned, the more we see those ideas just aren't right. 215 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, because we I mean even I do that. 216 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, we talk about it, you know, well. 217 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 6: You guys will ask me, do you think this is 218 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 6: a serial killer? But no, there was no cooling off 219 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 6: the formula, right, so we have to get it out 220 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 6: of our head that it's we don't. 221 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 4: Even talk about cooling off anymore. That's that's that was 222 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 4: one of the quast twenty years. That was when the 223 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 4: guys changed their definition in two thousand and five. Right, 224 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 4: the whole cooling off period was so vague and vacuous 225 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 4: that they finally realized, we can't really use that as 226 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 4: part of a definition. 227 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: It's interesting you say that because even I think for 228 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: myself and anyone maybe listening who follows true crime, we 229 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: ask our this all the time too. 230 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: Why what's our fascination? What its are we scratching? 231 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: And I like to think that sometimes it's compartmentalizing in 232 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: our own worlds, right that, Okay, I understand the formula 233 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: of something clearly not a serial killer, but in general 234 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: and true crime, therefore, I feel safer in the world. 235 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 4: And formulas are about prediction, and I sort. 236 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: Of when I hear you speak, it's like, it's so 237 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: fair because I find myself doing that in the world, 238 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: and generally speaking, we talk about a lot of dark 239 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: things all the time, and it's interesting to hear that perspective. 240 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 4: I think. I think my advantage in doing this work 241 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 4: is not that all the work in psychologists all the 242 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 4: work I did in philosophy, so it lets me float 243 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 4: with ambiguity and with unanswered questions a lot more easily, 244 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 4: I think than many people, because that is a place 245 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 4: that doesn't feel safe, and you have to get used 246 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 4: to it if you're going to be able to do 247 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 4: this work. But people do love their formulas because it 248 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 4: helps us with our expectations and the feeling that we've 249 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 4: got it all figured out, so that we. 250 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 6: Can figure it out with the formula, right, like the 251 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 6: idea we hope almost even like that if we study 252 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 6: it long enough. Maybe I do data analysis profess, you know, 253 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 6: as a profession, and I'm always doing predictive analysis, so 254 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 6: if we can find if we can get enough data, 255 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 6: we can start predicting behavior. 256 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 3: Right. 257 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 4: But that's I think the wonderful thing about human beings 258 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 4: is that there's always a bit of unpredictability. No matter 259 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 4: how much what you have going for you in terms 260 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 4: of all the data and data management, there's always something. 261 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 3: There's always an outlier. 262 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 4: Right, that's why I like the outliers. 263 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 6: Right, And that's why you decided to start working with 264 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 6: Dennis Raider because he was kind of like the outlier. 265 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 4: Yeah. I wanted to understand that, but also use his 266 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 4: case as an example of why we should be careful 267 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 4: about these formulas because it's really hurting our ability to 268 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 4: understand fully a person's life. I studied phenomenology, so of 269 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 4: my master's degrees is phenomenology and the idea of you 270 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 4: have to bracket your expectations so that you can let 271 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 4: what's really there show itself to you, because your expectations 272 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 4: otherwise can prevent you from seeing things. 273 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 3: Almost like a block. Yeah. Yeah, oh my gosh. 274 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 5: Well, please stick with us because after the break, I'd 275 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 5: love to ask you a few more questions about both 276 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 5: philosophy and phenomenology, which I have never heard of till 277 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 5: this moment, So stick around. Doctor Kathlin Ramslin will also 278 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 5: be speaking with us about Eileen Wornos and also how 279 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 5: a fender behavior is potentially changing today. Keep it here 280 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 5: at True Crime Tonight. 281 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: Welcome back to True Crime Tonight and Heart Radio. We've 282 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: been talking true crime all the time. I'm Stephanie Leidecker, 283 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: here with Courtney Armstrong and Body Movin my favorite girls 284 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: in all Things. And we have doctor Catherine Ramslin with 285 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: us tonight. And if you're not familiar with her work, 286 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: she's been in over two hundred documentaries. 287 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 3: You have for sure seen her. I have seen you 288 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 3: in so many that. 289 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: We get a little starstruck almost because not only are 290 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: you an academic, but you have a wide net of 291 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: the many minds that you've studied. We've been talking about BTK, 292 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: bind torture kill, a serial killer who you've spent over 293 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: fifteen years studying. To me, that is the scariest of 294 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: all of the scerial killers, and just in Layman's terms, 295 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: and forgive me if they're too layman, but what always 296 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: struck me about BTK specifically was two things. One his 297 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: ability to be everything to many people, meaning he was 298 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: a beloved father, he was a beloved partner. People liked 299 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: him in the real world mentioned earlier, he would go 300 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: to church and be you know, philanthropic, people liked him. 301 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: In fact, his daughter loves him. And how real that 302 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: world must be. Yet you know he would bind in 303 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: torture and kill people. You know, he infamously had a 304 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: very high first kill count right, that he murdered a 305 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: family the first time out of the gates and then 306 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: went back to his simple world. 307 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 3: And for me personally, the theory of that is just 308 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 3: as scary as scary can be. 309 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: It like touches into every part of human behavior that 310 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: I could see myself walking straight into. Right, you believe 311 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: the facade that sometimes people are putting forward, or how 312 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: they present themselves, they're masking perhaps in some cases. And 313 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: yet the level of violence he bestowed on people was 314 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: frankly unparalleled in many ways. So for you to be 315 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: studying that is that Is there anything that I'm miss 316 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: seeing that? 317 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 3: Really? 318 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 4: Yeah? I actually don't think his level of violence was 319 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 4: on parallel. I've seen much worse than him by far. 320 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 4: He didn't hold people for long periods of time, torturing them, 321 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 4: putting their head in the tub and drowning him and 322 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 4: pulling it back out and then drowning him again. He 323 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 4: didn't do things like that. He was fairly quick. 324 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,640 Speaker 3: His whole idea of torture family at one time, though, 325 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 3: that's pretty intening. 326 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 4: But yeah, he's but he strangled them. He didn't torture. 327 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 4: He didn't the little girl he did he hanged her 328 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 4: from a fright. But I would still say I've seen 329 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 4: much more violence than him. I would also I would 330 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 4: also say everybody liked him. He had a fairly rigid personality, 331 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 4: and there were there were people in his jurisdiction when 332 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 4: he was a compliance officer. I just thought he was 333 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 4: an awful person. So his daughter high. 334 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 3: Had a family who thought very highly of him. 335 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: You know, there were parts of his personal life was 336 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: very from what I've read so well, I. 337 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 4: Mean, his daughter has completely turned on him. Yeah, so 338 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:19,239 Speaker 4: I don't know what I would say about that. Her 339 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 4: book has certainly moments where he scared her made her uneasy. 340 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 4: So you know, everything is has got shades of nuance 341 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 4: to it, and certainly he does. But really, what we're 342 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 4: puzzled to buy with Dennis Rader is his ability to 343 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 4: be normal, to act normally, to go to have a 344 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 4: hold a regular job, be a family man, have kids, 345 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 4: be a father, be you know, volunteer with the boy Scouts, 346 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 4: helping out, being being very invested in his church, and 347 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 4: at the same time be always trolling around looking for 348 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 4: the potential of a victim, and to be breaking into 349 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 4: people's houses for burglary, to be feeling like he needed 350 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 4: to dominate people and control people. So how does somebody 351 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 4: hold all of that kind of fantasy life while also 352 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 4: performing as a normal person. I think that's what really 353 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 4: fascinates us about. 354 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 6: Him performing as a normal person. That's the key right there. 355 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 6: So I have a question, doctor, do you think, and 356 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 6: you know, do you you're very studied? Do you think 357 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 6: that this normal performing as a normal person was that 358 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 6: his like that wasn't his real self? Or do you 359 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:45,360 Speaker 6: think the cube the side of him that was bt K? 360 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 6: Do you think that's his real self? 361 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 4: I think they're all his real self. 362 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 3: You think they're all his real self. 363 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 4: I don't think he's a unified I don't think any 364 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 4: of us are brankly right. Maybe some of us have 365 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 4: more sense of integrity and others, but I think I 366 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 4: think he had. All of these things are real to him, 367 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 4: and the many conversations I've had with him, letters, visits 368 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 4: and whatnot, I see I see different sides to him. 369 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 4: All of them are real, though, and all of them 370 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 4: are meaningful. But he is a spin doctor. He if 371 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 4: you want to do Bible study with him, that's what 372 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 4: he will be to you. If you want him to 373 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 4: be the monster. He will draw his cave monsters for you, 374 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 4: and he'll be the serial killer if you want him to. 375 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 4: You know, he'll he will be what you want him 376 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 4: to be. He has the ability to do that. And 377 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 4: I think all of them are real in that they 378 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 4: are the way he gets along in life. All of 379 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 4: them are, but he but he's definitely an impression manager 380 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 4: for sure. 381 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 5: I had a question when you mentioned him sort of 382 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 5: trolling even in whatever facet of his life he was 383 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,199 Speaker 5: in for victim. Was there anything in particular that Dennis 384 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 5: Radar looked for in general or yes. 385 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:13,360 Speaker 4: I mean it changed over the course of his period, 386 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 4: as initially he didn't expect that they were in befour 387 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 4: people in the Otara house, for example, he thought there 388 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 4: would there would be a mother and the two kids, 389 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 4: and he dispatched the little boy quickly, and then he 390 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 4: was going to kidnap the mother and daughter because he 391 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 4: had a mother daughter fantasy. He's going to take them 392 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 4: to an abandoned bar, and none of that worked out, 393 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 4: and he ended up killing four people Axley, So then 394 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,199 Speaker 4: the next one he's going to be more careful about that. 395 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 4: And also they had a dog, so the next one 396 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 4: he's going to be more careful with. So he does 397 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,719 Speaker 4: have a kind of a type, which would be a 398 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 4: petit woman that he feels that he can dominate more 399 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 4: Taro Julio Taro is dark haired, the next one, so 400 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 4: there were some variations. But he wanted them to eat. 401 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 4: Why was he attracted to that note? It was because 402 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 4: he felt he could dominate them. And that's very typical 403 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 4: of serial kills. Look, they don't want someone who's going 404 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 4: to resist them and fight them off and run away 405 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,199 Speaker 4: and tell the police. They want someone they feel, you know, 406 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 4: pretty quickly bring under their control, which is, you know, 407 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 4: what it's all about for them. 408 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 5: I will not rest until I hear more about phenomenology. 409 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 3: Just what is that? 410 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 5: And also how has that impacted all of your research 411 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 5: and work well. 412 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 4: Phenomenology is a European philosophy. It goes with existentialism, which 413 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 4: is something I taught when I taught at Rutgers University. 414 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 4: It was a philosophy professor first, and I was attracted 415 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 4: to because it's it's a full person philosophy. It allows 416 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:54,159 Speaker 4: individuals to be who they are. So phenomenology in a 417 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 4: nutshell is back to the things themselves, to strip away 418 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 4: theory and expectations and try to just see what a 419 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 4: phenomenon is and let it present itself to you before 420 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 4: you start theorizing about it. So it's really a philosophy 421 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 4: of looking at the world and accepting it for what 422 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 4: it is. And so if you're a therapist, you're going 423 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 4: to be letting people be who they are with that 424 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 4: instead of approaching them with a theory ality intact. So 425 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 4: it was just it was attractive to me. I was 426 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 4: a therapist for a little while. I didn't really like 427 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 4: being a therapist, but that was the philosophy that I 428 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 4: used when I was. 429 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 6: Interesting. It's almost like expectation management, something I need to get. 430 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 4: It's hard to do, too, because you have to bracket 431 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 4: your expectations and there's a certain pract I mean, we 432 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 4: had a master's program in it. We spent every day 433 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 4: learning to do this and to understand how we look 434 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 4: at the world through particular lenses, and those lenses can 435 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 4: make things look different than they actually are. So it's 436 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 4: a skill, it's a practice, and of course it has 437 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,959 Speaker 4: affected much of what I do. Certainly, letting a serial 438 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 4: killer present himself to me in the way he wants 439 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 4: to before I start thinking about theories and formulas and whatnot. 440 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 4: So it really has affected how I think about them, 441 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 4: how I deal with them, ask questions, and then later 442 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 4: write about them. 443 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 6: Very interesting. This is true crime tonight on iHeartRadio. We're 444 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 6: talking true crime all the time. We are lucky enough 445 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,199 Speaker 6: to be joined by doctor Kathlin Ramsland and we're right 446 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 6: in the middle of talking about BTK. If you want 447 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 6: to give us a talk back, just download the iHeartRadio 448 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 6: app and hit the little microphone and boom, you're on 449 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 6: the show. Doctor Catherine Ramslin. I would like to ask 450 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 6: you about education, since we were talking about that and 451 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 6: bt K For those who aren't familiar, His first victims 452 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 6: happened in January nineteen seventy four, and then in nineteen 453 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 6: seventy nine. He attended Wichita State University and he graduated 454 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 6: with a Bachelor of Science degree in administration. Do you 455 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 6: think or does the think that Dennis Rader may have 456 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 6: pursued this degree to understand justice or inoculate himself from it, 457 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 6: or do you think he has anything to do with anything. 458 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 4: I think it was actually earlier than seventy nine. 459 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 3: I thought, well, he graduated in seventy nine. He might 460 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 3: have attended earlier. 461 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 4: No, he was interested. He wanted to be a police officer. 462 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 4: He was interested in law enforcement. He was rejected, I 463 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,959 Speaker 4: think at least twice, if not three times. He was rejected, 464 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 4: but he wanted to be so he pursued degrees that 465 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 4: potentially would get him there. And he did have one 466 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 4: experience where he was in a classroom where a pathologist 467 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:01,959 Speaker 4: was teaching them about one of the victims, one of 468 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 4: his victims, And it was an interesting experience for him 469 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 4: to be talked about, knowing that he's the guy that 470 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 4: did the murder. But I think it was it wasn't 471 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 4: so much to learn how to get away with crimes, 472 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 4: but certainly that that's a byproduct. The more you know 473 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 4: the the more you're going to be thinking about what 474 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 4: do I need to do. But I think he really 475 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 4: just wanted to be in law enforcement because that was 476 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 4: his personality. It was very much black and white, law 477 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 4: and order, good and evil. He thinks of himself as 478 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 4: a good person who did some bad things. 479 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: I guess that's the case with most people who do 480 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: bad things, even right a lot. 481 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 4: I've heard a number of steroy killers describe themselves that way. 482 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 4: They're they're much more. They've spent much more time being 483 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 4: good people than bad people, so that outweighs what they've 484 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 4: done in their mind. 485 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 6: I guess that's true. I mean, in a sense they 486 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 6: do spend. 487 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 4: Much True, it equalizes the all the all the action, 488 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 4: all their behavior. Their behavior is not equal. But they 489 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 4: have done to murder and torture of the people outweighs 490 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 4: shoveling the walk for your neighbor during a snowstorm quite far. 491 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 6: But they're looking at it's black and white, like I've 492 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 6: spent twenty eight years of my life being a good, 493 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 6: good person and one day being a bad person. 494 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 4: So therefore, yeah, because they've dehumanized their victim. 495 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, interesting? 496 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 5: Did BTK Did he come up with his own name, 497 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 5: with his own quote nickname? 498 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 3: Is that correct? 499 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 4: Yeah? Very quickly, because he wanted to be sure not 500 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 4: to leave anything to chance. He wanted to have it. 501 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 4: He didn't want a stupid name. He wanted a name 502 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 4: that would terrify which talk. 503 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 5: Right, And I bring it up because you know earlier 504 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 5: you had touched upon the fact that in your experience 505 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 5: he actually wasn't that torturous in the scope of things. 506 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 5: Do you think he was trying to build himself up 507 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 5: or just have the catchiest name. 508 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 4: Was that his well, for him, the torture was psychological 509 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 4: more than it was. It wasn't physical. And he did 510 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 4: propose other names like the poet Strangler, so not a 511 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 4: very scary one. But I think he had four or 512 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 4: five ideas before he settled on BTK. But it was 513 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 4: really to get that sense of dominance. I mean, he 514 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 4: had studied the serial killers again that was something that 515 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 4: was an outlier. And he had also watched the press. 516 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 4: He watched how media was treating them like Ted Bundy 517 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 4: during the seventies, and so he wanted to be sure 518 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 4: that he had a handle that was going to be memorable. 519 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 6: Certainly was certainly was. And he would write the media 520 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 6: and the police departments, right, he would communicate with both 521 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 6: law enforcement and media and write letters not at. 522 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 4: The same time. He's kind of alternated, and it was 523 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 4: much more toward the media because he had a crush 524 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 4: on one of the news anchors, Oh yes, a caketb 525 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 4: And you also really liked the Witch Da Eagle. That 526 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 4: was the paper he liked to read. So he kind 527 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 4: of did both depending on what he wanted to do. 528 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 4: Or what message he was sending, but more of his 529 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 4: stuff was really aimed toward the media. 530 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,719 Speaker 1: Just to kind of divert from the specific crimes altogether. 531 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: I'm just curious, as as a professor, as a scholar, 532 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: as a woman, what is your tool and how do 533 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: you cope and all these dark corners? You know, we 534 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: do it every night. I find that we talk about 535 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: pretty dark stuff so regularly, and we all have kind 536 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: of our tools. 537 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,479 Speaker 3: But I feel like you, I feel like you really 538 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 3: have the tools. What can you teach us now? 539 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 4: I'm curious about your tools? 540 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 3: But fair question, by the way, fair question. 541 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 4: For the past three years, I've worked on a horse 542 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 4: farm volunteer work. I do a lot of the ride 543 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 4: around a tractor, I take care of the horses, I 544 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,719 Speaker 4: get eggs in from the chickens, et cetera. And that 545 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 4: all came about because I went to visit a horse 546 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 4: farm and the owner broke her foot and she needed 547 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 4: someone to rehab a horse and she couldn't obviously do it. 548 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 4: And his name was Sonny, and so I agreed to 549 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 4: take him on as a project because he needed to 550 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 4: be able to walk or else. And so I just 551 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 4: kept walking him and then soon I was riding him 552 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 4: and now I ride him. In fact, I wrote him today. 553 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 4: I ride him four times a week. 554 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 3: Wow. 555 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 4: And he's my best buddy. And now he has two. 556 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 3: Books and he's an author as well. 557 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: I'm a recent transplant to Nashville, so getting around horses 558 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: is something it's sort of like. 559 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 3: New to my world. 560 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: And it is a real therapy, grounding tool with all things. 561 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, we had another therapist right well. 562 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 4: And the thing about horses is you have to be 563 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 4: very present. You can't be wandering great daydreaming, not paying attention. 564 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 4: Have to be very present because anything could change in 565 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 4: a heartbeat. I've been trampled by a horse. I can 566 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 4: tell you it can be it can be fast. But 567 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 4: with this experience of just it helps me get away 568 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 4: from everything. I'll write maybe four or five hours, and 569 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 4: I'll go out to the farm and you know, shovel stalls, 570 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 4: I'll do whatever it needs to be done at the farm. 571 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 4: It just helps me get all of this stuff out 572 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 4: of my head, pay attention to the horses, and and 573 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 4: then I can come back fresh. 574 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 6: You mentioned that Sonny had two books. What what are 575 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 6: the Can you tell us the titles of the book. 576 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 4: The first one is just called Sonny says, and it's 577 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 4: about his his philosophical ancestors like Son Crates and son 578 00:32:52,840 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 4: Stotle and so and so we were just having fun 579 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 4: at the farm. I took pictures of all the different 580 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 4: animals and made it into a book because I wanted 581 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 4: to learn to self published. And then we decided to 582 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 4: put Sonny in an adventure, so it became the Palomino Pi. 583 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 4: It's a book called Sherlock Horse. 584 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, it just was fun and it has 585 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 3: been fun. 586 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 6: Oh that's good. So you learned how to self published 587 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 6: through I. 588 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 4: Learned how to self publish. I would I would say, 589 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 4: don't do it, don't put pictures. You're going to learn 590 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 4: how to do this. Don't don't have your first book 591 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 4: with pictures, because that was really hard, I'm sure, but 592 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 4: it turned out to be fun and now it's just 593 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 4: sort of a diversion. 594 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 3: That's amazing though. 595 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 5: And yeah, as Buddy mentioned, we just had an equine 596 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 5: therapist on who did talk so much about the need 597 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 5: to be present around horses, and so yeah, second person, 598 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 5: we shall all take a hint and meet a horse. 599 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the connectivity I think also that is just 600 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: sort of there's reciprocity in that connectivity. 601 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 3: So how grounding that must be. 602 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 4: And it takes time. It's it's you have to have 603 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 4: a lot of patience and they don't necessarily choose you 604 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:14,720 Speaker 4: just because you've chosen them. So I spent a lot 605 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 4: of time just working on him and until until he 606 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 4: finally is like now now he waits for me at 607 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 4: the gate two years. 608 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 1: I would imagine even in your work, even with the 609 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: cases that we've just been discussing. 610 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 3: Too, it's a slow, long game. 611 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: You're developing a relationship with somebody who's you know, even 612 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: in VTK and Dennis Raider like they they you know, 613 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: they have it all figured out until it's slow and steady, and. 614 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 4: All the serial killers always ask about Sonny, is that right? 615 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 3: Why do you think that's the case. It's so interesting 616 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 3: to me. 617 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 4: I just think they it's a side of me they 618 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 4: don't get to see, and and it's something that I 619 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 4: love talking about. So I think when when they talk 620 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 4: with me and the phone or something, they want to 621 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 4: know you know that part has a farm snow there? 622 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 4: What's going on? 623 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 7: Gee? 624 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: Can I ask this one very again basic question? But 625 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: I'm just I'd be remiss not to when you are 626 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: in the presence in somebody who has taken lives or 627 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: one life or many lives, in the cases that you 628 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,399 Speaker 1: have in fact worked on. Even just hearing that there's 629 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 1: so many worse than BTK that you've studied, of course 630 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,800 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you a thousand hours about 631 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 1: those as well. 632 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 3: Do you get scared? 633 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,479 Speaker 4: I do not get scared, And I do think there's 634 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 4: something about me because I hitchicked across the country when 635 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 4: I was eighteen and rode a motorcycle across and I 636 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 4: was nineteen, So I think there's something about me that's 637 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 4: probably abnormal that fearless. I don't know if I fear less, 638 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 4: but I think my fear is probably much more tolerant 639 00:35:55,800 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 4: of things and more ready to go into two things 640 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,840 Speaker 4: that maybe other people are afraid of. So I'm not 641 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 4: afraid of working with these these guys. 642 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: I must sense that in you as well, which probably 643 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 1: brings a real level of comfort or authenticity that maybe 644 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: isn't seen elsewhere. 645 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 4: Well, I think the most important thing with them is 646 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 4: a data ont judgment, sure, and that you know all 647 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 4: of them will say that. I think that's that's that 648 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 4: phenomenology thing. You have to be able to bracket your 649 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 4: judgments when someone's telling you horrible things that they've done. 650 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 4: I think that's the most important thing, if if you 651 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 4: want to be able to establish a rapport where they 652 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 4: are going to feel comfortable talking with you. 653 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 6: I wanted to switch subjects real quick and talk about 654 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 6: maybe some modern trends in modern offenders. And you know, 655 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 6: we're you know, the rise of the internet means something 656 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 6: I'm very big into and something I'm fairly well known 657 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 6: for and and whatnot. In I think modern offenders in 658 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 6: today's age might be a little bit more driven by 659 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 6: different things than they were in the past, and I 660 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 6: wanted to talk to you about that. I thought was okay, 661 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 6: what emerging patterns, if any, What emerging patterns in modern 662 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 6: offenders concern you the most? 663 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:20,239 Speaker 3: If any? 664 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 6: Some that come to mind are like in cell driven, 665 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 6: there's now a lot of rage baits on the internet 666 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:33,360 Speaker 6: for political reasons. Are there is there one like stream 667 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 6: in modern offending that concerns you the most? 668 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:41,240 Speaker 4: Yeah? I think I think anger and humiliation don't get 669 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 4: enough attention in terms of as motivators, and in cell 670 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 4: is obviously very anger driven. Yeah, I think we need 671 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 4: to know more about that, because because so many of 672 00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 4: our social media influencers know that anger is a great manipulator. 673 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 4: If you get people angry enough, they you know, you 674 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 4: can twist that emotion and get them to do things 675 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,840 Speaker 4: that maybe they would never think to do on their own. 676 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 4: So yeah, I think there's whole movements that we should 677 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 4: be alarmed about. But I think if you're talking about 678 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 4: lone killers individual serial killers, we're still seeing a lot 679 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 4: of the same things that we used to see. But 680 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 4: maybe they're getting more sophisticated because it's a lot easier 681 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 4: to watch, you know, a show than it is to 682 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 4: read a medical textbook, for example. They're getting more sophisticated 683 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 4: about the kinds of things they need to watch out 684 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 4: for and the kinds of things that cops are using. 685 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 4: They're aware there's more CCTV cameras everywhere, They're now more 686 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 4: aware of the IgG the genetic genealogy investigations. So I 687 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 4: think they're being more careful, but they're still driven by fantasy. 688 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 4: They're still driven, but there's a lot of anger are 689 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 4: threaded in that fantasy. 690 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 5: And I have a question in the same sort of 691 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 5: lane in speaking, we've all been doing a bunch of 692 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,280 Speaker 5: work on the topic of in cells, and in speaking 693 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 5: with sort of some prosecutors, something that they pointed out 694 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 5: was a quicker escalation time, whereas in the past, like 695 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,760 Speaker 5: people instead of simmering for you know, days, weeks, years, 696 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 5: it's it's just very quickly that people seem to escalate 697 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:34,400 Speaker 5: to violence. 698 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 3: And then also. 699 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 5: That a lot of the sort of the lone wolf 700 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 5: they don't seem to care if they're caught. In fact, 701 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 5: they want to go down in a blaze of glory. 702 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 5: And I don't know if that's because they. 703 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 4: If they're mission driven, as some of the in cells 704 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 4: have been. Yeah, they you're right, they want to be 705 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 4: out there because they think they're going to inspire a 706 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 4: lot more of the same. Turns out they're wrong because 707 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 4: they don't do that. They think they're going to be 708 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 4: part of some big revolution and it's mission driven. So 709 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 4: that's why they don't care if they're caught, because they 710 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 4: think it's all part of the package. 711 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 1: Which is so interesting even for law enforcement because even 712 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: speaking of in cells, it's also so hard to monitor 713 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: a lone wolf online, right, so we're not even seeing 714 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:29,400 Speaker 1: big groupings or clusters or protesters or sort of behaviors 715 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,439 Speaker 1: that can be tracked, you know, it becomes a little 716 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: bit more innocuous. 717 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, it's one thing to sit around in 718 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 4: a chat room and grouse about this and that, and 719 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 4: it's another thing to get yourself prepared to go do 720 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,280 Speaker 4: you know, go on some school campus or movie theater 721 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 4: instead of shooting people. 722 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 3: Exactly right. 723 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 6: But if you're the kind of person that we're talking about, 724 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 6: like maybe that gets amped up quickly or has all 725 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 6: this anger built up, those people contributing in those chat 726 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 6: rooms are just kind of like amping that person up. 727 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 4: Right, it's almost honestification, giving them a pication. And this 728 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 4: really does go back into their childhoods quite often. Again, 729 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:13,360 Speaker 4: I go back to humiliation being understudied because they have 730 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 4: felt humiliated and now they have a frame for it, 731 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 4: and they have other people saying, oh, yeah, I know 732 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 4: exactly that feels like, and here's what you should do 733 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 4: about it. And some of them are vulnerable enough to 734 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,760 Speaker 4: think that they should do something and feel absolutely justified 735 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:30,839 Speaker 4: in doing it. 736 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, So it's it's it's so scary. 737 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 1: But again, I think the more we talk about or 738 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:40,879 Speaker 1: learn about it, it really does sort of I don't 739 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 1: want to I don't know what the word is to 740 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 1: use exactly. It's not compartmentalized, but it's sort of I 741 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 1: like your analogy of just being able to let the 742 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: phenomenon take place, or you know, like a wave. You 743 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,839 Speaker 1: can't really predict any of it. You have to kind 744 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: of go with that flow and accept things for how 745 00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: they are. 746 00:41:58,800 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 7: Yeah. 747 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 4: I mean, if you were to look at the interrogation 748 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 4: of Manassian, for example, Alec Mnassian in Canada, who is 749 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 4: following Elliott Roger, you know, Saint Elliott Roger, supreme gentleman, 750 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,880 Speaker 4: and so he takes his this vehicle and rams it 751 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 4: into people and thinking he's justified, and watching his interrogation, 752 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,840 Speaker 4: how confused he is that people don't understand why this 753 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 4: isn't the right thing to have done, and that he's 754 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,479 Speaker 4: sure it's going to be followed with other people doing 755 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,239 Speaker 4: it all over the place. So you can just see 756 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,919 Speaker 4: that this is a vulnerable mind who got filled with 757 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 4: you know, what other people thought he should do, and 758 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 4: then he took it and did something with it, and 759 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 4: now he's going to spend his life in prison wondering 760 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 4: what happened. 761 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 3: What went wrong? I mean, you know, I would even 762 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 3: go so far. 763 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: You know this is a single killing allegedly allegedly alleged 764 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 1: even with Luigi Mangion, for example, you know that was 765 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 1: purpose based, right, if what accused of and if that 766 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 1: manifesto was meaningful, Like, what impact does the purpose actually 767 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 1: have when all is said and done, And what a 768 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,240 Speaker 1: strange feeling that must be today as you're really facing 769 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: the music. Is there any advice or anything just as 770 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:17,200 Speaker 1: a human being. 771 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:17,400 Speaker 3: In the world. 772 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: You know, you mentioned philosophy and your study of and 773 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 1: obviously forensics and criminology. 774 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,280 Speaker 3: Is there any advice you. 775 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 1: Have for us just to kind of navigate the world 776 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 1: in the best way and safest way possible? 777 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:35,959 Speaker 3: Voted question.

That just shows 783 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,320 Speaker 3: that you play all in. I think you. 784 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 4: Watch your back, you careful of who you allow to 785 00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 4: approach you, who you open your door to who. I 786 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 4: don't know. It's hard to generalize it is. I'd have 787 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,840 Speaker 4: to see what your specific situation is like.

If they 795 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,359 Speaker 4: target you, they're going to be very careful to make 796 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,439 Speaker 4: sure you don't suspect until too late. 797 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:39,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's so fair.

We're talking 814 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 1: true crime all the time. I'm Stephanie Leidecker here with 815 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 1: Courtney Armstrong. We have Taha in the control room, and 816 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: Joseph Scott Morgan, our very favorite forensics expert, also the 817 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: host of the hit podcast body Bags, is here to 818 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 1: break down some of the cases that we've been covering 819 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 1: throughout the week from a forensic standpoint. Joseph, there has 820 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 1: been so many times in the last five days that 821 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 1: we've said, why didn't we ask Joseph that? 822 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 3: Why we asked Joseph that? 823 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:05,240 Speaker 1: So we've kind of been stacking in a few different categories. Obviously, 824 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 1: one of the cases that we've been following so closely 825 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 1: has been this Brian Walsh case. He's the accused wife 826 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,760 Speaker 1: killer who is now standing trial of his wife Anna. 827 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 3: Very wild week in court, but at. 828 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 1: Its core, it seems as though he's basically saying, look, 829 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 1: she died of something unexpected, an unexpected death, and I 830 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: knew she was dead because she tipped over when I 831 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 1: touched her and rolled off the bed trigger alert. This 832 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:36,359 Speaker 1: is a little heroin and then I panicked, and I 833 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:40,760 Speaker 1: didn't want my children to have to face the reality 834 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 1: that their mother was gone. So he took it upon himself, 835 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 1: which he's now admitted to, to dismember her body and 836 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: take versions of those body parts and place them all 837 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 1: around his area, including in a dumpster allegedly close to 838 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:56,880 Speaker 1: his mother's house. 839 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 3: That's all I got. 840 00:46:58,200 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 1: Court can give us a little bit more on the 841 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:03,160 Speaker 1: case specifics, but what the we. 842 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 3: Have to talk about this, Joseph. 843 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 5: We do have so many questions and just to get 844 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 5: a lay of the land. So the murder trial of 845 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 5: accused Massachusetts wife killer Brian Walsh has continued this entire 846 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 5: past week. Jurors now have seen gruesome forensic evidence. It's 847 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 5: been pulled from a trash facility as well as the 848 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 5: family volvo. This includes, I mean, it is quite a list. 849 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 5: It includes a blood stained clothing, a tievek suit, tools, 850 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 5: pieces of a rug and all of this while a 851 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,919 Speaker 5: state please crime lab scientists walks them through how each 852 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:43,799 Speaker 5: of those items were documented and what they might say 853 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:48,400 Speaker 5: about the disappearance as well as the presumed killing of 854 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 5: Anna Walsh. Who is of course accused murderer Brian Walsh's 855 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:57,360 Speaker 5: now deceased wife. So alongside that, there's been digital forensic 856 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:02,400 Speaker 5: experts that have laid out Brian's extensive online searches about 857 00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 5: body disposal, decomposition and cleaning DNA. But what do you 858 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 5: think should we start with the physical forensics such as 859 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:16,439 Speaker 5: the bloody cloths? What, Joseph, what are the thoughts about 860 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 5: the tibex suit, the goggles, the cutting tools, bloody rug pieces. 861 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, thanks for having me tonight, guys. We love you 862 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 7: with you. Oh, I love you guys. Y'all are the best. 863 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,840 Speaker 7: You know what it says to me because so many 864 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 7: of these memberment cases that I cover either on my 865 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 7: podcasts or on natural news platforms, they're always so incredibly disorganized. 866 00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 7: This guy had a plan and I cannot tell you. 867 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 7: I think that probably out of all of the cases 868 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 7: that I have covered relative to dismemberment, this is the 869 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 7: first one where taibek suit has been involved. 870 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:54,440 Speaker 3: Wow. 871 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, And you know that's something for those that don't know. 872 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 7: You know, that's something in forensics that we wear and 873 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 7: we kind of a little aside. We refer to them 874 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 7: as bunny suits. And if you've never been in one. 875 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 7: You lose about five pounds of waterway, you know, when 876 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 7: you're working in one of these things. So he's gotten 877 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 7: his hands on one of these things as preparation because 878 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 7: he understands something very from an elemental level about forensics. 879 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 7: You begin to think about transfer, transfer of any kind 880 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 7: of biological evidence, you know, like on either his clothing 881 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 7: that he has, or on his person, you know, just 882 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 7: the bare skin. He was thinking about that also goggles. 883 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:44,720 Speaker 7: I find that interesting because goggles most of the time 884 00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 7: when we work in the lab. I know, just in 885 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 7: my morgue that I have at my university. I and 886 00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 7: my kids wear eye protection. Do you know why, Because 887 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,960 Speaker 7: there's a splash factor involved. Anything can transfer into your eyes. 888 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:03,960 Speaker 7: Had he thought that far ahead, you know, and so 889 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 7: that brings us to whatever tools that they may have recovered, 890 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 7: the utility of those tools, How is he going to 891 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:14,320 Speaker 7: be used in them? Because he's he's obviously thinking about 892 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,520 Speaker 7: this transferring onto his person, not just his clothing, but 893 00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 7: back into his face. That's amazing to me because when 894 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:26,800 Speaker 7: you begin to think about premeditative events, this is a hallmark, 895 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:28,640 Speaker 7: you know, this is a hallmark. 896 00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:31,440 Speaker 1: Here is it possible at this point, once a body 897 00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 1: is dismembered, as he's claiming he did. This is Brian 898 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,440 Speaker 1: Welsh the husband, because there's a couple of exacerbating factors 899 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:40,480 Speaker 1: here when there's nobody right, so you know, to this 900 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 1: moment on his body has not been found. He's admitting 901 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 1: that he dismembered it out of panic. He did not 902 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:50,879 Speaker 1: kill her, in his opinion, but rather disposed of her. 903 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 1: Is there's no universe now if in fact Anna makes 904 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:59,040 Speaker 1: you rest in peace has in fact been dismembered, We're 905 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:03,399 Speaker 1: never getting the body right, so this becomes some kind 906 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 1: of a version of do people believe him or not? 907 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 1: You know, I it's hard to get convictions without a body. 908 00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 1: We thought it was incredible that somebody would have the 909 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 1: nerve to say I had nothing to do with her murder. 910 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 1: Yet I dismembered her body. And then yet even this 911 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 1: week we've heard audio tapes of him leading messages for 912 00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: the person that she was allegedly seeing, and how calm 913 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:29,640 Speaker 1: and cool. 914 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 3: He was in the days thereafter. After an event like this, 915 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 3: it's impossible to believe. 916 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 1: But without a body, is it possible that he might 917 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 1: only get a couple of years Because the partes are 918 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 1: so just different. 919 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,759 Speaker 7: It's very, very difficult. There's a Latin term that I 920 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,840 Speaker 7: love that the courts uses corpus delecti. Many people have 921 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,800 Speaker 7: heard that term, and it means body of the crime. 922 00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 7: Sometimes I will use it in conversation relative to human remains, 923 00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 7: because absent the corpus delecti, the body, and the body 924 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 7: is the evidence here, right. I'm not trying to be 925 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,800 Speaker 7: disrespectful by saying that, but it is the core element 926 00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 7: of this case, because they're in like essential elements. First off, 927 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 7: we have to think about the cod the cause of death. 928 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:18,920 Speaker 7: You know, how exactly did she die? One fascinating aspect 929 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 7: of this and I found this when defense opened. They 930 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 7: actually implied, they implied at least that she had died 931 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,799 Speaker 7: as a result of something that's referred to in some 932 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:35,879 Speaker 7: circles as sudden adult death syndrome or and you've heard 933 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 7: of SIDS. So what they're implying is this healthy, she 934 00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:43,360 Speaker 7: appears to be the picture of health, just suddenly drops 935 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 7: over graveyard debt and he happens to be there, and 936 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 7: he's trying to save his children. The horror of all 937 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 7: of this, so we cannot there's no way to prove 938 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:57,759 Speaker 7: that because we can't examine the remains. You know, we'd 939 00:52:57,760 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 7: look at the brain, we'd look at the lungs, we'd 940 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 7: look at the heart, all of those sorts of little 941 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:06,000 Speaker 7: things there that's gone. And the other part of this 942 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:10,360 Speaker 7: is the evidence that's left behind that connects the tools 943 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:16,960 Speaker 7: that he used on her body. Okay, so again this 944 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 7: is very graphic, and I'll try to be gentle with this, 945 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 7: But when you think about if folks at home will 946 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 7: think about taking a traditional carpenter saw and sawing a 947 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 7: piece of lumber many times, and I know a lot 948 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:32,400 Speaker 7: of people have experienced this. Have you ever started sawing 949 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:33,719 Speaker 7: a piece of wood and all of a sudden it 950 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 7: jumps out of the groove and you have to start 951 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,239 Speaker 7: over again. Did you know that that happens in dismemberment? 952 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:46,520 Speaker 7: And so every time that metallic body touches that surface, 953 00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 7: that firm surface, it leaves a mark, It leads a 954 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 7: mark that is unique to a specific tool. So absence 955 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,319 Speaker 7: the body, we had nothing to compare it to. All 956 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,520 Speaker 7: we have is this memory of this one. We have 957 00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:03,520 Speaker 7: his statement where he says that she was in fact dead, 958 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 7: but scientifically, how did she come to her end? And 959 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 7: that's the crux of this whole thing, you know, was 960 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 7: she strangled? Did she have a massive heart attack? Did 961 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 7: a meteor fall out of the sky and strike her 962 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,960 Speaker 7: in the head? I don't know, But absent the corpus DELECTI, 963 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:25,400 Speaker 7: that'll be a question that will remain unanswered unless you know, 964 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:28,040 Speaker 7: like man from Heaven, knowledge falls in the midst of 965 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:29,279 Speaker 7: us all of a sudden. 966 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:33,440 Speaker 8: Brian, he's claiming that she died of sudden unexplained death, 967 00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 8: which I've never heard that term before. Are you familiar 968 00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:39,400 Speaker 8: with that? And then I think you've answered some of this, 969 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,799 Speaker 8: But is there a world where something like that, like, 970 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:44,759 Speaker 8: is there enough of a body part left where we 971 00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,279 Speaker 8: can figure out whether or not she did die of 972 00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:49,560 Speaker 8: this unusual debth? 973 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:50,399 Speaker 3: No, that's not. 974 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:53,680 Speaker 1: Even a thing like, Joseph, I have to assume. I'm 975 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 1: just going to jump in for one second. There is 976 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:59,680 Speaker 1: no way that that is an actual term. It's literally 977 00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 1: a the equivalent of me saying, oh my goodness, the 978 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:05,800 Speaker 1: person I love they just died of the I don't 979 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: know what disease that's commonly seen in this part of 980 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:10,200 Speaker 1: the land. 981 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:13,440 Speaker 7: No, let me pause you there. I used to work 982 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 7: with an old pathologist and he and there were cases 983 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 7: I worked with him, and he was one of these 984 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 7: kind of country old country docs, and he used to say, 985 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:28,960 Speaker 7: God called, and there are these cases where there's some 986 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 7: kind of pathological process that takes place that you still 987 00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,919 Speaker 7: can't discover, you know, and you're left scratching your head. 988 00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 7: And oh, by the bye. You have to understand that 989 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 7: cardio respiratory arrest is not a cause of death. A 990 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 7: lot of people will sign death certificates that way. That's 991 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 7: not a cause of death. That's a mechanism. There's a 992 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:53,200 Speaker 7: causal factor that underpins all this. But yes, there is 993 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,759 Speaker 7: in fact a world where a sudden adult death syndrome 994 00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 7: does happen and there's no explanation, just like precious little 995 00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:02,239 Speaker 7: babies that Dov SAIDs And. 996 00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 3: By the way, we wouldn't be able to buy the bye. 997 00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:06,239 Speaker 1: You're my favorite when you say that, you're the only 998 00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:08,480 Speaker 1: person that I say bye the bye with. But by 999 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 1: the bye, by the bye, it's unprovable, right, so it 1000 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,239 Speaker 1: just leaving doubt at the bare minimum. This guy's you know, 1001 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 1: this guy's a fraud of an art dealer. He certainly 1002 00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: isn't a medical examiner or a physician to be able 1003 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:22,200 Speaker 1: to make that distinction. 1004 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 3: Why wouldn't he call nine to one one. 1005 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 7: You know, I got to tell you I'm a cynic. 1006 00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,960 Speaker 7: As you guys know, I'll try to be a happy cynic. However, 1007 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 7: I got to tell you somebody did some reading prior 1008 00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 7: to preparing this opening statement. Okay, because now the cat's 1009 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:41,959 Speaker 7: out of the bag. You've n leashed this thing into 1010 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 7: the court. It's in the record now. The people that 1011 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 7: are trying the case have heard it. The people that 1012 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 7: are hearing the case have heard it, so that little 1013 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 7: kernel is planted in their brain. What's going to be 1014 00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:56,799 Speaker 7: very interesting from a defense standpoint. Are they going to 1015 00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 7: put up a cardiopulmonary position that will come in or 1016 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 7: maybe their own pathologists that we'll talk about sudden adult 1017 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:09,080 Speaker 7: death syndrome for instance. Is it possible, doctor, that someone 1018 00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 7: can suddenly die? You see, now you've shifted, You've created 1019 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:17,120 Speaker 7: that doubt, and now you're just Now he becomes a 1020 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:20,680 Speaker 7: sympathetic character. He didn't want to injure his kids. He 1021 00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:24,680 Speaker 7: didn't want to scar them any further, So he dismembers, Mom, 1022 00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 7: I don't know, it's beyond the pail. As far as 1023 00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 7: i'm concerned. 1024 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 5: It's beyond the baill and this has been in my 1025 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:34,440 Speaker 5: crawl all week long, and now I'm. 1026 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:35,560 Speaker 3: So glad we got to speak with you. 1027 00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,840 Speaker 5: We spoke to a legal expert earlier this week because 1028 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 5: it seems so egregious. But listen, this is true crime 1029 00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:43,960 Speaker 5: tonight and we are lucky enough to be here with 1030 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 5: forensic expert Joseph Scott Morgan. We're talking about accused Massachusetts 1031 00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:53,040 Speaker 5: wife killer Brian Walsh. If you have any thoughts, particularly 1032 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:57,000 Speaker 5: about the alleged sudden, unexplained death, let us know, hit 1033 00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:00,720 Speaker 5: us up on the talkbacks and the iHeartRadio app. Joseph, 1034 00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 5: we were talking earlier about not just the fact that 1035 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 5: Brian Walsh purchased goggles, he also went so far as 1036 00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:15,160 Speaker 5: to purchase booties so foot productive wear as well. And 1037 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 5: I just wanted to lay out so we have the information. 1038 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:24,520 Speaker 5: The the tools that he brought include a hammer, a hatchet, 1039 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 5: hack saw, shears, wire, snaps and tape. 1040 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 3: It's like it is, it's just like a Long Island serial. 1041 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:36,240 Speaker 1: Killer list like this is that is a real horrifying 1042 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:36,959 Speaker 1: scary list. 1043 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 3: And according to your point, murder a murder kit, a 1044 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:40,439 Speaker 3: murder kit. 1045 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 1: Seeing it laid out as evidence on the white sheet. 1046 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,720 Speaker 1: And when you see it laid out that way like this, 1047 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 1: this is like what you see in the scariest movie 1048 00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:49,440 Speaker 1: you've ever watched. 1049 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:53,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, it is. And I'm thinking about utility here. I'm 1050 00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 7: wondering what made him Why did he think that he 1051 00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,960 Speaker 7: needed non power tools. I'll put it to you that way, 1052 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:02,560 Speaker 7: because it's far more efficient to use something like a 1053 00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 7: skill saw or saws. All that you see with the 1054 00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,240 Speaker 7: the agitating blade goes back and forth, you know, and 1055 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:11,400 Speaker 7: you'll cut, you know, sheet rock out with it, and 1056 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 7: you use all kinds of things. Ten snips are very interesting, 1057 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:17,920 Speaker 7: sheet metal shears, those sorts of things. He knows that 1058 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 7: there's work to be done, and you know, he doesn't 1059 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:25,480 Speaker 7: occupy the same space that myself and colleagues such as 1060 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 7: myself understand. You go into the morgue and we have 1061 00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 7: a very specific set of tools that we use. I'm 1062 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:35,880 Speaker 7: not channeling Liam Neeson there by the way. There there 1063 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:39,200 Speaker 7: is a specific set of tools that we use that 1064 00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,960 Speaker 7: we've learned to use for you know, a couple of 1065 00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:45,440 Speaker 7: centuries now, and they all have utility and they make 1066 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 7: clean cuts. You're talking about y'all y'all are talking about 1067 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 7: a hacket here. Just let that sink in just for 1068 00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 7: a second. Okay, this, yes, it's a sharp, forced tool, 1069 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 7: but there's also a blunting effect with this, so you've 1070 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:03,439 Speaker 7: got rushing that's going on as well. Does he have 1071 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 7: any kind of history of butchery? That's that's a question 1072 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 7: that's been asked for years and years about cases. Even 1073 01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 7: you know, if you go back to Jack the Ripper, 1074 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,480 Speaker 7: you know that people talk about, well, he may have 1075 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,480 Speaker 7: been a surgeon or a barber, and these sorts of 1076 01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:23,320 Speaker 7: things understanding human anatomy. Again, this circling back, This brings 1077 01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 7: us to this idea of preparation. And if that doesn't 1078 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:31,720 Speaker 7: send a chill up your spine and everyone that's listening 1079 01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:35,520 Speaker 7: and following this case, I really don't know what would. 1080 01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 5: Well, a chill has certainly gone up my spine. Thank 1081 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 5: you very much for breaking that down with your expertise. 1082 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 5: We appreciate it so much. And listen, stick around because 1083 01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:48,760 Speaker 5: forensic expert Joseph Scott Morgan will be with us and 1084 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:50,920 Speaker 5: we're going to be digging into the forensics into the 1085 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 5: David the Pop Star and Selestreevas and Randez case. 1086 01:00:55,080 --> 01:01:02,840 Speaker 3: True crime tonight. 1087 01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:10,280 Speaker 1: Welcome back to true crime tonight on iHeartRadio. We've been 1088 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:13,720 Speaker 1: talking true crime all the time. I'm Stephanie Leidecker here 1089 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:18,120 Speaker 1: with Courtney Armstrong. Listen, we have Taha stepping in to 1090 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:22,120 Speaker 1: the microphone straight from the control room. And as always 1091 01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:25,200 Speaker 1: on Sunday nights, we have our most favorite forensics expert, 1092 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:29,120 Speaker 1: Joseph Scott Morgan hosted the Hit body Bags podcast. If 1093 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:32,520 Speaker 1: you haven't listened, you have to listen. He has three 1094 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:35,960 Speaker 1: episodes a week and again, the way you break down forensics, 1095 01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 1: Joseph is clearly like no other. We've been talking about 1096 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:44,520 Speaker 1: the Brian Walsh accused wife killer case and we've gotten 1097 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,120 Speaker 1: some dms and some questions, and I know Courtney has 1098 01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 1: some burning ones still too, So why don't we just 1099 01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:53,560 Speaker 1: jam through as many forensics questions as we can. 1100 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,680 Speaker 5: So just a little bit more information that came out 1101 01:01:56,680 --> 01:02:00,120 Speaker 5: and trial that we'd love clarity on from you. So 1102 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,240 Speaker 5: things in addition to the tools we talked about and 1103 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:08,960 Speaker 5: the TIEC protective clothing, things such as hydrogen peroxide, sponges, 1104 01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:14,439 Speaker 5: wipes and other cleaning related materials came up. So this 1105 01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 5: is also in addition to some digital forensics which talks 1106 01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:22,160 Speaker 5: about Google search is about not only the best way 1107 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:25,640 Speaker 5: to dispose of a body, but how long DNA lasts, 1108 01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:29,640 Speaker 5: whether you can identify someone from partial remains, and what 1109 01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:34,960 Speaker 5: cleaners will remove DNA from wood floors. What information sticks 1110 01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 5: in your medical mind that we don't know. 1111 01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:39,720 Speaker 7: Well, I'll put it to you this way. We're recovering 1112 01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 7: DNA all human remains that have been dead for a 1113 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:47,160 Speaker 7: thousand years now, So no, no, you can't if you 1114 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:50,760 Speaker 7: find human remains. Now, the question is how viable is it? 1115 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:53,840 Speaker 7: All right? So let's just say that we recover are 1116 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 7: they not? We I don't have to do it anymore. 1117 01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:59,439 Speaker 7: I just get to talk about it. That's the best thing. 1118 01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 7: Let's just say that we recover a dental element like 1119 01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:06,440 Speaker 7: a tooth, I compare teeth. Okay, this is why I 1120 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 7: do it now. This is kind of a little mini 1121 01:03:08,840 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 7: crime lab. If you think about bones, all right, bones 1122 01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:17,880 Speaker 7: are a leather breathcase for carrying and transporting DNA information, 1123 01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:22,000 Speaker 7: and it's beautiful, it works very very well. Okay, However, 1124 01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:27,960 Speaker 7: teeth are like a titanium breathcase for carrying DNA. So 1125 01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,439 Speaker 7: because they're self contained, teeth are not bone. So let's 1126 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:34,440 Speaker 7: just say, for grins and giggles, that we recover a 1127 01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:38,120 Speaker 7: tooth and we're just talking a tooth. That's not necessarily 1128 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:40,360 Speaker 7: going to point you in the direction of a cause 1129 01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:44,680 Speaker 7: of death. However, it is an element that could lead 1130 01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:48,240 Speaker 7: to that could lead to an identification. Okay, not to 1131 01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 7: mention if you had a tooth. If we continue this logic, 1132 01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:54,040 Speaker 7: this train of logic, we think about any kind of 1133 01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:56,400 Speaker 7: restorations that are done on a tooths. What'sh you known 1134 01:03:56,440 --> 01:04:00,280 Speaker 7: to have cavity that was filled or partial, or was 1135 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:04,120 Speaker 7: there crown or anything you know that might end up 1136 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 7: that way. She's been gone sometime now, and i'd actually, 1137 01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:11,880 Speaker 7: I think it leads and forgive me. I don't know 1138 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:14,840 Speaker 7: if I'm completely accurate, but I had heard about this 1139 01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:21,440 Speaker 7: idea of placing remains in trash cans and they may 1140 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:26,680 Speaker 7: have been conveyed somewhere. I'm thinking landfill. Landfills are horror 1141 01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 7: shows for recovery of remains. I've had to do it 1142 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,000 Speaker 7: a couple of times. It's something that it would be 1143 01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:34,120 Speaker 7: on my top ten list of things I would not 1144 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,200 Speaker 7: want to repeat in my life because it's an absolute nightmare. 1145 01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:40,720 Speaker 7: That is what referred to as an aerobic environment. You 1146 01:04:40,800 --> 01:04:44,840 Speaker 7: have anaerobic and aerobic. Think about aerobics doing oxygen I 1147 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:49,880 Speaker 7: mean doing exercise, you're driving oxygen in that oxygenated environment. 1148 01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:54,919 Speaker 7: At a molecular level, everything is in a state of kay. 1149 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:57,960 Speaker 7: So it breaks down very very difficult even if you 1150 01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:01,520 Speaker 7: can find it, and it's compact that the question is 1151 01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:04,440 Speaker 7: where all of her remains disposed of in that manner? 1152 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:06,920 Speaker 7: It seems rather convenient, you know, in order to do it, 1153 01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,040 Speaker 7: and we've covered a lot of cases over the years 1154 01:05:09,440 --> 01:05:12,200 Speaker 7: where that has in fact happened, and remains are not 1155 01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:15,000 Speaker 7: always found because you will have people that will say, yeah, 1156 01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 7: you know, they roll over them and say, yeah, you know, 1157 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 7: I disposed of the remains in a trash can the 1158 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 7: trans trash can was conveyed. We could do an entire 1159 01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:27,480 Speaker 7: dissertation on how landfills work because it's incredible, I mean, 1160 01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:29,720 Speaker 7: the volume that they have to deal with. Then we 1161 01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:32,680 Speaker 7: think about these other elements that are left behind. I 1162 01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:37,919 Speaker 7: think it scenes you know you had mentioned about cleaning supplies. Yeah, 1163 01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:40,680 Speaker 7: they worked to a certain degree, but when you get 1164 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:44,960 Speaker 7: these agents like blue star and of course famously luminol 1165 01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:48,880 Speaker 7: that's reactive with blood and it only lasts for a second, 1166 01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:50,400 Speaker 7: by the way, I think people think that it will 1167 01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 7: just stay there forever and ever and glow. It doesn't. 1168 01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:54,280 Speaker 7: You have to have your camera ready and the lights 1169 01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 7: are off when you snap that image because it fades. 1170 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:03,280 Speaker 1: Hands what you put in like a black and white photo. 1171 01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:07,440 Speaker 1: I'm imagining that it takes the crime scene blood and 1172 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 1: it illuminates it so you can. 1173 01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 3: See a highlighter in a black room. 1174 01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:15,880 Speaker 7: It is, And actually it's got kind of grotesque, I know, 1175 01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:17,840 Speaker 7: but it's got kind of a lovely glow to it. 1176 01:06:17,840 --> 01:06:21,520 Speaker 7: It's it's almost a blue illuminescence, if you will. And 1177 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 7: it's striking when you see it. And dependent upon the 1178 01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 7: dynamics of the deposition, you can see patterns. You can 1179 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:34,160 Speaker 7: see footprints, you can see arterial spray, you can see 1180 01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 7: swipes and wipes, Okay, like if somebody's trying to clean up, 1181 01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,680 Speaker 7: you'll see if you guys have if anyone at home 1182 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 7: has ever had like they've used a mop, like an 1183 01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:47,440 Speaker 7: old string mob that's filthy, okay, And you're trying to 1184 01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:49,880 Speaker 7: clean your floors and you look down the floor and 1185 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:51,840 Speaker 7: it's like, oh my god, it's like a mud hole 1186 01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:55,280 Speaker 7: on my floor. Now because mop is filthy. It actually 1187 01:06:55,760 --> 01:06:58,880 Speaker 7: looks that way many times the mop strings do and 1188 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:00,920 Speaker 7: you'll see that in smears where people have gone over 1189 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:04,520 Speaker 7: and tried to clean it. It doesn't completely eradicate it. However, 1190 01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:08,440 Speaker 7: the more chemicals you apply to it, it degrades it. 1191 01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:11,919 Speaker 7: And the further out in time you go, how much 1192 01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:14,480 Speaker 7: more so. So you're talking about things like potentially bleach, 1193 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:17,760 Speaker 7: hydrogen peroxide, and there are other agents. And on a 1194 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:19,800 Speaker 7: show like this, I'm not going to go into everything 1195 01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:23,760 Speaker 7: I know, okay to talk about eradication of evidence that 1196 01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:27,240 Speaker 7: that wouldn't be cool. But I'm just I'm just saying 1197 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:33,160 Speaker 7: people always miss something. It's such a messy affair, and 1198 01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 7: most people that commit dismemberments don't understand that going in. 1199 01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:39,920 Speaker 7: That's why you wind up with partial dismemberments because they 1200 01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:41,680 Speaker 7: get in the middle of it and they're like they've 1201 01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:43,240 Speaker 7: got one foot in the boat and one foot in 1202 01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:45,120 Speaker 7: the water. They don't know what to do at that 1203 01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:48,000 Speaker 7: point in time because it's an absolute nightmare. 1204 01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 1: It is the absolute last place that a brain should 1205 01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:53,720 Speaker 1: go too. I mean, of all of the options that 1206 01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 1: were on accused wife killer Brian Walsh's list are on 1207 01:07:57,800 --> 01:08:01,240 Speaker 1: his menu if you will, Hey, call authorities. 1208 01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:03,480 Speaker 3: Perhaps she can be saved. And there's a medical reason 1209 01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:04,600 Speaker 3: that something has happened. 1210 01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:07,880 Speaker 1: B call a loved one and then nine one one 1211 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:10,200 Speaker 1: in a medical authority because you're concerned that your wife 1212 01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:12,800 Speaker 1: may have been you know, maybe she had an aneurysm 1213 01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:16,479 Speaker 1: or something sudden has happened. That is petrifying and so scary. 1214 01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:18,880 Speaker 1: The idea that you're now going to say that your 1215 01:08:19,080 --> 01:08:23,439 Speaker 1: wife is never going to be found for your children 1216 01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:27,120 Speaker 1: to put them at rest, the idea in Joseph, you 1217 01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:30,720 Speaker 1: and I talk about this stuff offline so often. The 1218 01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:34,719 Speaker 1: reach to go straight to dismemberment in the human mind, 1219 01:08:35,280 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 1: I think is a really crucial piece of the story. 1220 01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:42,400 Speaker 1: That is a leap that is not that burying somebody 1221 01:08:42,439 --> 01:08:46,400 Speaker 1: in the ground is better, but of all the better 1222 01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:49,559 Speaker 1: things and all the scary, horrendous things at this point, 1223 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:53,920 Speaker 1: going there is even the scariest of all things. 1224 01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:55,320 Speaker 3: And then he's so calm. 1225 01:08:55,040 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 7: After Yeah, and you know, there's multiple there's about five 1226 01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:05,200 Speaker 7: different types of dismemberment that people are profiled on. Most 1227 01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:07,360 Speaker 7: people don't know this, and I can't name all five 1228 01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:09,720 Speaker 7: of them off of the top of my head, but 1229 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:13,000 Speaker 7: one of them primarily is utility, and what you will 1230 01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:19,479 Speaker 7: get is a dissection of all of the limbs. Okay, 1231 01:09:19,560 --> 01:09:22,599 Speaker 7: so if we just think about taking the appendages off 1232 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:25,439 Speaker 7: of the body, and that includes the head, both arms, 1233 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:29,160 Speaker 7: and both legs, and they never touch the torso, and 1234 01:09:29,400 --> 01:09:31,960 Speaker 7: that's that kind of has a utility to it because 1235 01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 7: they're trying to compartmentalize a body in order for purposes 1236 01:09:35,840 --> 01:09:39,040 Speaker 7: of disposal. Then you'll have people that just straight up 1237 01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:43,920 Speaker 7: desecrat or remain and there's a lot of psychopathology that 1238 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:49,000 Speaker 7: goes into that. You know. You'll have people that's another 1239 01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 7: group that are souvenir takers, you know, those sorts of things. 1240 01:09:52,760 --> 01:09:54,960 Speaker 7: And there's a whole litany of these things that people 1241 01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:59,800 Speaker 7: have studied over the years. So you know, you begin 1242 01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:03,960 Speaker 7: to think about this with him, it sounds it doesn't 1243 01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:06,759 Speaker 7: sound like something that was done by an irrational person, 1244 01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,320 Speaker 7: all right, because we have planning, you know that goes 1245 01:10:10,360 --> 01:10:12,760 Speaker 7: on with this, a lot of planning. You know, I 1246 01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:18,160 Speaker 7: don't know, listen, I've been in my share of topicsuits, y'all. 1247 01:10:18,160 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 7: I ain't got one around the house. One around the house. 1248 01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:23,519 Speaker 7: All right. It's something you have to It's an active, 1249 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:25,920 Speaker 7: active event. You have to go track one down. 1250 01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:29,479 Speaker 3: That's crazy one. You know. 1251 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:33,280 Speaker 5: Let's all hope these painous thoughts don't aren't the first 1252 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:34,200 Speaker 5: ones that dawn on us. 1253 01:10:34,240 --> 01:10:38,440 Speaker 3: As she points it out, Stephanie, in any situation. My goodness, 1254 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:39,280 Speaker 3: this is. 1255 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 5: True crime tonight, and we are so happy to be 1256 01:10:42,360 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 5: here with forensic expert Joseph Scott Morgan and he's been 1257 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:48,519 Speaker 5: breaking down all the cases of the week. We just 1258 01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:52,839 Speaker 5: finished up with some information on accused wife killer Brian Walsh. 1259 01:10:52,880 --> 01:10:55,280 Speaker 5: We will stay with this case as it evolves in 1260 01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:58,439 Speaker 5: the coming weeks. But now I was thinking we turn 1261 01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 5: our attention to the David celestivs Hernandez case. 1262 01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:06,360 Speaker 3: If that works. Yeah, we have so many questions. Joseph. 1263 01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:07,760 Speaker 3: Of course, do you want to give us a little 1264 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:11,720 Speaker 3: setup on that? Absolutely so. 1265 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:16,000 Speaker 5: Los Angeles County Criminal Grand Jury has heard evidence and 1266 01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:18,160 Speaker 5: this is in regard to the death of fourteen year 1267 01:11:18,200 --> 01:11:22,400 Speaker 5: old Celestrevus Hernandez. Her remains were found back in September 1268 01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:24,840 Speaker 5: eighth and it was in the front trunk of the 1269 01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:29,080 Speaker 5: tesla that was registered to the pop Star David. While 1270 01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:33,719 Speaker 5: the District Attorney's office continues presenting evidence in what's being 1271 01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 5: described in court filings as a quote investigation into murder. 1272 01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:42,160 Speaker 5: So they're not saying murder yet, but in investigation to murder. 1273 01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:48,040 Speaker 5: The LAPD is now publicly correcting gruesome rumors about both 1274 01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 5: the condition of celest Hernandez's body and stressing that key 1275 01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:58,240 Speaker 5: forensic tests that include toxicology as well as autopsy work 1276 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:06,559 Speaker 5: are still pending. So, Joseph, what what do you make 1277 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:11,320 Speaker 5: of all of this misinformation information? You know, it's been 1278 01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:14,920 Speaker 5: people have said that or police now are saying that 1279 01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:19,880 Speaker 5: seless remains were partially dismembered, that she was not decapitated, 1280 01:12:20,479 --> 01:12:23,960 Speaker 5: and that a lot of the online rumors simply aren't true. 1281 01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:29,120 Speaker 5: So do you learn anything from about intent or planning? 1282 01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:33,720 Speaker 7: Yeah? You can. I mean, there's still utility to this. 1283 01:12:34,439 --> 01:12:36,360 Speaker 7: You know. One of the biggest questions I've had with 1284 01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:40,120 Speaker 7: this case, love these many months now? Has it been months? 1285 01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:47,920 Speaker 7: It has been months? Yeah? Lord, yeah, yeah. So one 1286 01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:54,599 Speaker 7: of my questions has been throughout this thing. First off, 1287 01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:58,080 Speaker 7: where would she if there is a dismemberment? All right, 1288 01:12:58,120 --> 01:13:00,320 Speaker 7: I don't know who to believe at this point, I 1289 01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 7: really don't, you know. I mean, because we've heard so 1290 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:06,519 Speaker 7: much and there have been quote unquote reliable sources all 1291 01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:11,840 Speaker 7: over the place. And remember U said, quote unquote, but 1292 01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 7: let's just run with this and say that she was dismembered. 1293 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:19,719 Speaker 7: Where exactly did this dismemberment take place? I have thought 1294 01:13:20,400 --> 01:13:24,400 Speaker 7: for some time that, because you know, how I was 1295 01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:29,600 Speaker 7: talking about typologies with dismemberments, you do have these individuals 1296 01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:33,800 Speaker 7: that fall into a category of panic dismemberment, like, oh 1297 01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:37,479 Speaker 7: my lord, what do I do? And it's almost like 1298 01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:40,719 Speaker 7: a you know, in law, there's a term called in koheit, 1299 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:43,479 Speaker 7: which means you intend to do something, but you don't 1300 01:13:43,479 --> 01:13:48,320 Speaker 7: complete the deed, and that can happen I think in 1301 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:53,000 Speaker 7: a case of kind of panicked dismemberment. But still we 1302 01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:56,320 Speaker 7: do have the word dismemberment floating around. Something has been 1303 01:13:56,960 --> 01:14:00,679 Speaker 7: separated from the remains. Okay, we don't know which appended. 1304 01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:03,960 Speaker 7: We don't know what degree. Was it a foot? Singly 1305 01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:07,080 Speaker 7: a foot singularly a foot? Was it an entire leg? 1306 01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:09,640 Speaker 7: Was it both legs? Was in an arm? They're saying she 1307 01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:14,880 Speaker 7: was not decapitated. I'm thinking, what she partially dismembered somewhere 1308 01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:20,200 Speaker 7: in a panic and they have her remains stowed somewhere 1309 01:14:20,280 --> 01:14:25,280 Speaker 7: else in the house. And she begins forgive me to 1310 01:14:25,320 --> 01:14:28,960 Speaker 7: become very foul and intolerable that smell. They don't know 1311 01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:30,880 Speaker 7: what to do with her. So is it at that 1312 01:14:30,960 --> 01:14:34,519 Speaker 7: point in time that the remains are then kind of 1313 01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:40,080 Speaker 7: sequestered into the tesla all right and stowed there. Then 1314 01:14:40,120 --> 01:14:43,000 Speaker 7: the tesla's moved around, you know, because of the foul oor. 1315 01:14:43,040 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 7: No one trusts me. Once you've been around it, you 1316 01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:48,960 Speaker 7: don't want to be around it, particularly civilians. It's just 1317 01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:53,800 Speaker 7: not something anyone ever gets used to. And I've had 1318 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:58,240 Speaker 7: those thoughts. There would be with any dismember that there's 1319 01:14:58,320 --> 01:15:00,679 Speaker 7: generally a copious amount of Byloe evident. 1320 01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:03,960 Speaker 1: I have a question about just the idea for being 1321 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:06,080 Speaker 1: frozen trigger alert, going to. 1322 01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 3: Keep it very graphic less as clean as possible. 1323 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:11,599 Speaker 1: But the there have been reports, or at least has 1324 01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:15,639 Speaker 1: been written that David the Pop Star potentially traveled to uh. 1325 01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:20,360 Speaker 3: Uh senom so he traveled. 1326 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:22,080 Speaker 1: You know, there have been reports that David the Pop 1327 01:15:22,080 --> 01:15:25,080 Speaker 1: Star traveled to Santa Barbara, either by himself or with 1328 01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:30,559 Speaker 1: one or two others undisclosed information there. The assertion is 1329 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,880 Speaker 1: that perhaps she was dismembered there and in order to 1330 01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:39,400 Speaker 1: contain the odor that would be months after her you know, 1331 01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:42,400 Speaker 1: this would go so long beyond you know how that 1332 01:15:42,439 --> 01:15:46,080 Speaker 1: would be tolerable to quote you that maybe that's why 1333 01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:50,360 Speaker 1: she was frozen and frozen for as long as could be. 1334 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:54,080 Speaker 1: And then once that seemed like not a good idea, 1335 01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:57,479 Speaker 1: they took her frozen remains and put that in the front, 1336 01:15:58,240 --> 01:16:01,519 Speaker 1: which would kind of check both that's happening between the 1337 01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:04,920 Speaker 1: medical examiner and the LAPD, which is maybe there were 1338 01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:08,280 Speaker 1: in fact some soaked fingerprints. Maybe that did really maybe 1339 01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:10,840 Speaker 1: that was the reason that her body didn't have the 1340 01:16:10,880 --> 01:16:14,880 Speaker 1: same odor that you're describing for as long as as 1341 01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:16,760 Speaker 1: long as she was allegedly in there. I know the 1342 01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:20,400 Speaker 1: timeline is still a work in progress and evolving. Does 1343 01:16:20,400 --> 01:16:24,479 Speaker 1: that track would it freezing a human remain? Actually maybe 1344 01:16:24,520 --> 01:16:28,040 Speaker 1: we answer this right after the break, But with that, here's. 1345 01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 3: What you got to think about, Joseph. 1346 01:16:29,360 --> 01:16:34,719 Speaker 1: The question is would freezing remains actually prevent the odor 1347 01:16:34,800 --> 01:16:38,839 Speaker 1: from being that noticeable? And does that match the potential 1348 01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:40,680 Speaker 1: timeline in celestory? 1349 01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:43,160 Speaker 3: This her name iss case. And by the way, we're 1350 01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:49,280 Speaker 3: going to be right back True Crime tonight. Stay with us. 1351 01:16:56,560 --> 01:16:59,320 Speaker 1: Welcome back to True Crime Tonight on iHeartRadio. We've been 1352 01:16:59,320 --> 01:17:02,120 Speaker 1: talking true crime I'm all the time. I'm Stephanie here 1353 01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 1: with Courtney. We have Taha in the control room and 1354 01:17:05,080 --> 01:17:08,599 Speaker 1: of course are joined by forensics expert Joseph Scott Morgan, 1355 01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:13,120 Speaker 1: our very own and also he's the host of body Bags, 1356 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:15,760 Speaker 1: the hit podcast. Please check it out. We are knee 1357 01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,800 Speaker 1: deep in all things David the pop star and the 1358 01:17:18,800 --> 01:17:23,320 Speaker 1: case of fourteen year old Celeste Revus Hernandez. The question 1359 01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:25,479 Speaker 1: being there's been a lot of back and forth in 1360 01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:30,360 Speaker 1: speculation that perhaps her body was frozen or water logged 1361 01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:33,320 Speaker 1: upon being found. And is it possible that if your 1362 01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:39,160 Speaker 1: body is in fact frozen, that decomp would slow or 1363 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:42,439 Speaker 1: the odor would slow, which would explain why she wasn't 1364 01:17:42,479 --> 01:17:43,880 Speaker 1: identified in the car sooner? 1365 01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:48,280 Speaker 7: Yes, yes, and yes. Okay, however, let's go to the 1366 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:50,920 Speaker 7: water logging thing. I want to dispel this really quickly. 1367 01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:55,280 Speaker 7: There's something that happens. I think fingerprints came up at 1368 01:17:55,280 --> 01:17:59,080 Speaker 7: one point Tom about identification. There's a process that happens 1369 01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:02,920 Speaker 7: with decomposed and remains when we begin to think about fingers. 1370 01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:05,479 Speaker 7: If folks will just think about being in the pool. 1371 01:18:05,560 --> 01:18:07,599 Speaker 7: You remember Mama used to look at you. You'd say, 1372 01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:09,800 Speaker 7: let me see your fingers, and back in the day, 1373 01:18:09,880 --> 01:18:12,120 Speaker 7: that was an indication you've been in the pool too long. 1374 01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 7: So your fingers get pruned up, right, Well, that happens 1375 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,080 Speaker 7: with the decomposing debt. And one of the things that 1376 01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:21,519 Speaker 7: we do in order to lift a print is that 1377 01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:25,000 Speaker 7: we inject fingertips with what's called tissue builder, and it 1378 01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:29,439 Speaker 7: literally makes the fingertips swell. Okay, so we can roll 1379 01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:34,080 Speaker 7: a print that's not indicative of water logging. That's a 1380 01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:37,400 Speaker 7: natural process. So let's just get that off the table 1381 01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:40,519 Speaker 7: from jump Street. Now, if you want to talk about freezing, 1382 01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:43,280 Speaker 7: here's something interesting that we've never talked about on True 1383 01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:47,000 Speaker 7: Crime tonight, and that is histology. And histology is the 1384 01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:52,200 Speaker 7: microscopic study of tissues. Now, let me ask you guys 1385 01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:56,640 Speaker 7: a little Quizlet here heat Heat makes things do what 1386 01:18:57,200 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 7: now span? Right? Hot air expands, you know those sort 1387 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:05,360 Speaker 7: of things. Heat will cost pavement to crack all that. 1388 01:19:06,040 --> 01:19:09,559 Speaker 7: So if heat does that, what does coal do makes 1389 01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:15,280 Speaker 7: it tracked? Right? So if when you look at the tissues, 1390 01:19:15,560 --> 01:19:18,240 Speaker 7: and I'm not going to go too deep into this, 1391 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:22,000 Speaker 7: but when you look at the tissues microscopically, even the 1392 01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:26,280 Speaker 7: decomposing tissues in a body that has been frozen. You'll 1393 01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:30,520 Speaker 7: actually see these little spaces and gaps at a cellular 1394 01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:34,559 Speaker 7: level where the tissue has contracted down and it doesn't 1395 01:19:34,600 --> 01:19:37,679 Speaker 7: go back. There's no elasticity to make it pop back 1396 01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:42,519 Speaker 7: any longer. Isn't that kind of cool? So that's something 1397 01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:48,240 Speaker 7: that can be either debunked or verified microscopically. You know, 1398 01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:52,160 Speaker 7: with La County and if this is on the table, 1399 01:19:52,439 --> 01:19:55,000 Speaker 7: those people are pretty pretty dog on bright out there. 1400 01:19:55,560 --> 01:19:58,720 Speaker 7: I can imagine that the histo service there at La 1401 01:19:58,840 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 7: County corner would have done this. You take samples on 1402 01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:06,680 Speaker 7: every case, all right, but in this particular case they 1403 01:20:06,680 --> 01:20:09,280 Speaker 7: will take them, and that leads us into another area. 1404 01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:14,080 Speaker 7: Because everybody is right now and rightly so it is 1405 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:19,400 Speaker 7: begging to find out about toxicology. Okay. So generally with 1406 01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:23,360 Speaker 7: toxicology on a standard autopsy, what we lean on is 1407 01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:28,639 Speaker 7: what we call aortic blood. We go into the A order, 1408 01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:31,519 Speaker 7: which is the major vessel coming off the heart, and 1409 01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 7: you draw the blood from there. Uh. We take victorous 1410 01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:39,720 Speaker 7: fluid from the eyes, we take urine uh, and we 1411 01:20:39,760 --> 01:20:43,519 Speaker 7: take bile. Okay, But in a case and what were 1412 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:47,040 Speaker 7: the dates again that they've moved us dates further back 1413 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:49,920 Speaker 7: in time? I think April or something like that. Bat 1414 01:20:49,960 --> 01:20:53,760 Speaker 7: in the spring, right, it's so convoluted, it's we know, 1415 01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:55,559 Speaker 7: it's a protracted period of time. 1416 01:20:57,560 --> 01:20:59,240 Speaker 8: I think her remains were found or I know her 1417 01:20:59,280 --> 01:21:01,559 Speaker 8: remains were found in September eighth. Is that what you're 1418 01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:02,080 Speaker 8: referring to. 1419 01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 5: No, I think I think, Joseph, you're referring to should 1420 01:21:06,439 --> 01:21:09,000 Speaker 5: this trip to Santa Barbara, which has been spoken about 1421 01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:12,320 Speaker 5: quite a bit, that much has been made of it. 1422 01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:14,519 Speaker 5: We don't know exactly what, but that happened back in 1423 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:19,360 Speaker 5: the spring. It didn't designate March April May. That backs 1424 01:21:19,360 --> 01:21:25,400 Speaker 5: it up. And then also according to the private investigator 1425 01:21:25,479 --> 01:21:29,479 Speaker 5: Steve Fisher, he helped on the timeline a little bit 1426 01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:32,559 Speaker 5: as well, and what he said was that the tesla 1427 01:21:32,680 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 5: sat in different spots around the Hollywood of Hills before 1428 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:41,040 Speaker 5: being left on Bluebird Bluebird Avenue on July twenty ninth. 1429 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:44,240 Speaker 5: So that, of course is already July twenty ninth to 1430 01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:47,920 Speaker 5: September eighth. That's a long time, and it is. 1431 01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:52,800 Speaker 7: A very long time, particularly in that sweltering Los Angeles heat, right, 1432 01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:55,840 Speaker 7: it was particularly hot. I know I'm preaching the choir, guys, 1433 01:21:56,120 --> 01:21:58,640 Speaker 7: it's particularly hot summer for you guys. 1434 01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:00,439 Speaker 1: And I just think it's impossible that that would have 1435 01:22:00,479 --> 01:22:02,280 Speaker 1: gone so long. Just having worked with you for as 1436 01:22:02,320 --> 01:22:04,599 Speaker 1: long as I have, Joseph, it just seems like that 1437 01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:10,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't fly unless there was another exacerbating condition, maybe like 1438 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:11,280 Speaker 1: freezing or something. 1439 01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:17,120 Speaker 7: Well, that kind of leads me to this idea of 1440 01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:21,599 Speaker 7: how are we going to get talks? Okay, now, okay, 1441 01:22:22,479 --> 01:22:25,400 Speaker 7: let's just give me a little rope here, all right. 1442 01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:28,800 Speaker 7: So there are certain areas with decomposing remains that we 1443 01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:33,799 Speaker 7: go to to try to at least get a quantitative amount, 1444 01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:36,439 Speaker 7: because you can't do it, y'all. You can't apply a 1445 01:22:36,560 --> 01:22:40,000 Speaker 7: number to it, because in our world we work on 1446 01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:43,200 Speaker 7: things that are called therapeutic levels. Even heroin has got 1447 01:22:43,200 --> 01:22:45,839 Speaker 7: a therapeutic level if you look in the text. Okay, 1448 01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:48,519 Speaker 7: that means it's still compatible with life. If you've got 1449 01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:51,360 Speaker 7: this on board, and drugs have half lives and all 1450 01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:53,439 Speaker 7: that stuff. We can get into that another day. If 1451 01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:57,479 Speaker 7: we do a thing on toxicology, however, yeah, we should 1452 01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:02,599 Speaker 7: with this case. If her remains are as compromised as 1453 01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:05,519 Speaker 7: they are saying they are. Here's the regions we're going 1454 01:23:05,600 --> 01:23:08,280 Speaker 7: to go to at the Morgue we're going to go 1455 01:23:08,320 --> 01:23:13,160 Speaker 7: to major muscle groups. Okay, so think by all right, 1456 01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:16,920 Speaker 7: like the quads, you go deep into the quads, you 1457 01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:20,760 Speaker 7: try to retrieve a sample of muscle tissue. From there, 1458 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:25,320 Speaker 7: you go to the brain. Okay again, forgive me what's 1459 01:23:25,439 --> 01:23:28,760 Speaker 7: left of the brain. Now, surprisingly one of the most 1460 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:31,880 Speaker 7: resilient organs and by the way, the filthiest organ in 1461 01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 7: the human body, the liver. You go to the liver, 1462 01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:40,040 Speaker 7: liver holes on the toxins. Okay, we go there, and 1463 01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:42,360 Speaker 7: there are a couple of other areas, but those are 1464 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:44,400 Speaker 7: going to be the primary regions. What do we do 1465 01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:48,639 Speaker 7: with it, Well, we take those samples and we put 1466 01:23:48,640 --> 01:23:51,640 Speaker 7: them in a centrifuge. Everybody knows what a centerge is. 1467 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:54,280 Speaker 7: You've ever been to a fair and you've been in 1468 01:23:54,320 --> 01:23:56,720 Speaker 7: the thing that goes around around the floor falls out. 1469 01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:59,040 Speaker 7: That's a centrifuge, all right. So we put these samples 1470 01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:03,600 Speaker 7: in a centrifuge and literally spin them down until they're liquefied. 1471 01:24:04,280 --> 01:24:08,280 Speaker 7: Then we draw them up and we submit it for toxicology. Now, 1472 01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:10,640 Speaker 7: you can find major drug groups in there. You can 1473 01:24:10,640 --> 01:24:14,880 Speaker 7: find opiates, you can find benzos, you can find cocaine, metabolite, 1474 01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:17,360 Speaker 7: I don't know if you can find THHC. But you 1475 01:24:17,400 --> 01:24:20,240 Speaker 7: can find all of these elements. But still one of 1476 01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:24,720 Speaker 7: the big nagging questions with the shung woman's death. Let 1477 01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:27,519 Speaker 7: me rephrase that and say, girl, is was this a 1478 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:31,080 Speaker 7: drug related thing? Well, y'all, I gotta tell you you'll 1479 01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:33,519 Speaker 7: never have that answer. You're not going to be and 1480 01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 7: I hope I'm wrong. I truly hope I'm proven wrong. 1481 01:24:37,160 --> 01:24:41,080 Speaker 7: I can't imagine you would have a quantitative amount because 1482 01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:44,040 Speaker 7: if we have blood, urine, vitreous, bile, all those things 1483 01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:47,439 Speaker 7: that we do on a regular freshly passed away person, 1484 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:49,960 Speaker 7: we can get those levels. We can nail it, man. 1485 01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:52,960 Speaker 7: But you're talking about y'all. Y'all have talked about months, man, 1486 01:24:54,080 --> 01:24:56,720 Speaker 7: and if it was a poisoning, there's certain things we 1487 01:24:56,760 --> 01:24:58,719 Speaker 7: can look for in the hair. But you know, we're 1488 01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:00,599 Speaker 7: really kind of out on a limb because you're talking 1489 01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:03,120 Speaker 7: about things like heavy metals and all those sorts of things. 1490 01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:08,280 Speaker 7: So I don't have a lot of hope for talks here. 1491 01:25:10,120 --> 01:25:11,840 Speaker 1: I was going to say that was my big question. 1492 01:25:11,920 --> 01:25:14,800 Speaker 1: It was in terms of the timeline. Even with our 1493 01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:17,680 Speaker 1: hair follicles. I know we've done many cases together where 1494 01:25:17,720 --> 01:25:19,519 Speaker 1: it's very simple to be able to find a full 1495 01:25:19,560 --> 01:25:23,559 Speaker 1: toxicology very clearly, regardless of time. In this case, it 1496 01:25:23,640 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 1: seems like it's gone well beyond the scope or timeline 1497 01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:30,280 Speaker 1: that it typically would to get a toxicology back. I 1498 01:25:30,280 --> 01:25:33,160 Speaker 1: think we've theorized theorized by the way, this is a 1499 01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:37,439 Speaker 1: theory theory, theory, not so allegedly. Maybe there was an 1500 01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:40,799 Speaker 1: incident where Celeste odeed in some way or was slipped 1501 01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:43,920 Speaker 1: a drug and odeed from that, and then everybody in 1502 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:46,920 Speaker 1: the house panicked, not so similarly to the last case 1503 01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:49,920 Speaker 1: we covered, and in that moment of panic, this is 1504 01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:54,120 Speaker 1: what the next solution becomes to prevent the music tour 1505 01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:58,719 Speaker 1: from being interrupted or for preventing you know, my buddy 1506 01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:01,600 Speaker 1: David to come down in flames. Maybe had nothing to 1507 01:26:01,640 --> 01:26:05,320 Speaker 1: do with it, but it's is it true that at 1508 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:07,840 Speaker 1: this point, based on sort of what little we know 1509 01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:11,439 Speaker 1: about Celeste's body, that we might actually never know the 1510 01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:13,920 Speaker 1: answer to that? And is that why there may be 1511 01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:15,360 Speaker 1: hasn't been in arrest made. 1512 01:26:15,680 --> 01:26:18,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that that could be be part of 1513 01:26:18,160 --> 01:26:22,160 Speaker 7: the hold up. It's always it almost feels like in 1514 01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:24,960 Speaker 7: my experience, and I'm just talking about my little selicupple, y'all, 1515 01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:27,960 Speaker 7: I don't encompass the entire world. Everybody has different experiences. 1516 01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:30,800 Speaker 7: In the medical legal world. It always kind of felt 1517 01:26:30,840 --> 01:26:33,800 Speaker 7: like fools there. And when I'd get these bodies that 1518 01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:38,280 Speaker 7: are so in an advanced state of decomposition, You're holding 1519 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:40,760 Speaker 7: your breath, You're hoping you're going to get it, and 1520 01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:44,559 Speaker 7: stuff never comes back in a timely fashion. Stuff rarely 1521 01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 7: comes back. And what we think a timely fashion in 1522 01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:50,439 Speaker 7: the fresh did how much more so when you've got 1523 01:26:50,439 --> 01:26:52,840 Speaker 7: somebody that's been down for a protracted period of time. 1524 01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:55,519 Speaker 7: I think I would be very curious if the authorities 1525 01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:58,840 Speaker 7: in LA have not asked Quantico to get involved in 1526 01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:02,559 Speaker 7: this and take advantage of their skill set that they 1527 01:27:02,600 --> 01:27:06,679 Speaker 7: have because they deal with cases from all over the USA, 1528 01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:08,280 Speaker 7: they deal with cases. 1529 01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:08,920 Speaker 3: From all over the world. 1530 01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:13,320 Speaker 7: If the FBI is involved in it, and look the California, 1531 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:17,640 Speaker 7: California has quite the resources out there, I just I 1532 01:27:17,920 --> 01:27:21,439 Speaker 7: just don't know, because first off, we heard peep out 1533 01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:24,880 Speaker 7: of them. I don't anticipate here anything out of them, 1534 01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:29,360 Speaker 7: really anything of substance. You know what I'm saying, This. 1535 01:27:29,400 --> 01:27:30,360 Speaker 3: Is true crime. Today. 1536 01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:34,480 Speaker 5: We are here with Joseph Scott Morgan, forensic expert extraordinaire, 1537 01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:38,559 Speaker 5: and we are discussing the case involving the pop star 1538 01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:43,760 Speaker 5: David and the fourteen year old remains of selest Revas Hernandez. So, 1539 01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:49,559 Speaker 5: speaking back on the Medical Examiner's office, Joseph, there's been 1540 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:55,200 Speaker 5: this kind of interesting and public back and forth between 1541 01:27:56,000 --> 01:28:01,040 Speaker 5: the police and the Medical Examiner's office. So, speaking to 1542 01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:04,920 Speaker 5: a legal expert earlier this week, his take was, we said, 1543 01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:08,200 Speaker 5: is this unusual? He said yes, especially to publicly air 1544 01:28:08,280 --> 01:28:11,320 Speaker 5: this dirty laundry lack of a better word, and he said, 1545 01:28:11,360 --> 01:28:15,960 Speaker 5: kind of the prosecution to stick together. But in your experience, 1546 01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:21,160 Speaker 5: what would make the Medical Examiner's Office appear to want 1547 01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:30,640 Speaker 5: to provide information and officers want it not to be released. 1548 01:28:28,920 --> 01:28:33,439 Speaker 7: Because they're scientists? I think is one of the elements 1549 01:28:33,479 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 7: to this. They you know, we in science, we have 1550 01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:41,519 Speaker 7: this this need to release information and you know, full 1551 01:28:41,880 --> 01:28:45,920 Speaker 7: full kind of things. Let's keep in mind, y'all, maybe 1552 01:28:45,920 --> 01:28:48,679 Speaker 7: they're working this like a homicide. Has anybody been charged 1553 01:28:48,720 --> 01:28:51,400 Speaker 7: with homicide here? No, they still have yet to clear 1554 01:28:51,439 --> 01:28:56,240 Speaker 7: this a homicide. Correct, So the font from which all 1555 01:28:56,280 --> 01:29:00,680 Speaker 7: of the data should spring is actually the corner. You 1556 01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:04,960 Speaker 7: see what I'm saying, because you know it if you 1557 01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:08,439 Speaker 7: don't have enough information to call this a homicide, and 1558 01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:10,760 Speaker 7: I know I'll get pushedback on this, but you just 1559 01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:14,040 Speaker 7: look at it from a reality standpoint. Are the police 1560 01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:16,840 Speaker 7: involved in this? Then just think about it, because the 1561 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:20,479 Speaker 7: police do not make a ruling of a manner of 1562 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:23,519 Speaker 7: death or a manner, you know, one of the five manners. 1563 01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:26,880 Speaker 7: They're the ones that and many times the medical legal 1564 01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:29,960 Speaker 7: world will run contrary to what the police do. You know, 1565 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:32,800 Speaker 7: this happens a lot. I've been in not fights, but 1566 01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:36,120 Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying, you go, it's a conflict model, 1567 01:29:36,680 --> 01:29:39,200 Speaker 7: you know, kind of like court. We have our interests 1568 01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:43,160 Speaker 7: are completely different than those of the cops. You know, 1569 01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:46,240 Speaker 7: the cops have not moved forward with this as a 1570 01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:50,000 Speaker 7: standard homicide investigation. They have to have something to hang 1571 01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:54,160 Speaker 7: their proverbial hats on here and to this point, apparently 1572 01:29:54,200 --> 01:29:59,679 Speaker 7: the slash corner has not provided that. So right now 1573 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:05,240 Speaker 7: all is literally in the court of the corner's office. 1574 01:30:05,360 --> 01:30:10,960 Speaker 7: Unless somebody associated with this young man rolls over and 1575 01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:13,560 Speaker 7: has an epistotal moment, as we say down here in 1576 01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,839 Speaker 7: the South, come to Jesus moment and wants to say 1577 01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:20,760 Speaker 7: you know this is what happened that ain't happening to 1578 01:30:20,800 --> 01:30:23,599 Speaker 7: this point, I haven't seen it. I mean, maybe it'll happen. 1579 01:30:23,600 --> 01:30:25,680 Speaker 3: It's just shocking. It's shocking. 1580 01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 1: It's shocking that either nobody is screaming from the roofstops. 1581 01:30:29,120 --> 01:30:32,600 Speaker 1: Help there's an active killer out there who took my 1582 01:30:33,040 --> 01:30:37,320 Speaker 1: you know, fan or friend Celeste, you know, Revis Fernandez's life. 1583 01:30:37,720 --> 01:30:40,439 Speaker 1: If I'm David the pop star, help help help find 1584 01:30:40,520 --> 01:30:43,760 Speaker 1: the person who did this. Nor has anybody turned on 1585 01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:46,559 Speaker 1: each other. And we've all been in this for way 1586 01:30:46,600 --> 01:30:47,000 Speaker 1: too long. 1587 01:30:47,080 --> 01:30:47,679 Speaker 3: That's rare. 1588 01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:51,160 Speaker 1: Usually a couple of months in somebody's looking at a 1589 01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:52,080 Speaker 1: lot of jail time. 1590 01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:55,840 Speaker 3: They're feeling a little less posey about. 1591 01:30:55,560 --> 01:30:59,200 Speaker 1: Who they're, you know, taking a hit for dare I say, 1592 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:02,040 Speaker 1: and you haven't seen that yet. So this becomes one 1593 01:31:02,040 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 1: of those cases that is so incredibly confusing. 1594 01:31:05,240 --> 01:31:08,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, there's no substance point of leverage here. And may 1595 01:31:08,680 --> 01:31:12,400 Speaker 7: I hearken back to the Pikedon massacre. Yes, we think 1596 01:31:12,400 --> 01:31:12,800 Speaker 7: about that. 1597 01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 3: They were at least related. They were related, which will be. 1598 01:31:17,200 --> 01:31:20,439 Speaker 1: Different than your friends that are you know, your hanger 1599 01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:24,960 Speaker 1: on her crew that are partying at your Hollywood Hills house. 1600 01:31:25,040 --> 01:31:28,280 Speaker 1: For twenty thousand dollars a month. You would think maybe 1601 01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:29,960 Speaker 1: one of them would turn coat. 1602 01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:32,759 Speaker 7: Yeah, but in Pikedin you had a point of pressure 1603 01:31:32,800 --> 01:31:35,800 Speaker 7: there and apparently that doesn't exist at this point. At 1604 01:31:35,880 --> 01:31:38,960 Speaker 7: least they're not showing their cards. I got to tell you, y'all, 1605 01:31:39,040 --> 01:31:42,880 Speaker 7: I have yet cover case like this where there has 1606 01:31:42,920 --> 01:31:47,280 Speaker 7: been like a total shutdown of data that's been released. 1607 01:31:48,760 --> 01:31:50,960 Speaker 3: And listen, we have loved having you. 1608 01:31:51,040 --> 01:31:53,519 Speaker 1: I hate to do the fastest wrap up ever, Joseph, 1609 01:31:53,640 --> 01:31:56,839 Speaker 1: but Body for sure wants to talk about the Luigi 1610 01:31:56,880 --> 01:32:00,000 Speaker 1: mangi Oon ghost gun.
