Crime Wire Weekly 8/21/26 | Morgan Wallen Nightmare, Madison Brooks Trial, Slangin’Turtles Arrest

KJ and Jim open with major developments in the search for missing Baton Rouge teen Ja’Derrius Minniweather, as police recover remains from a landfill they believe belong to the 15-year-old. Then we track the latest delay in the Madison Brooks trial, another unexpected twist in the Alex Murdaugh saga as his retrial gets a change of venue, and the chilling case of a Florida sheriff’s deputy accused of kidnapping and killing his ex-girlfriend.

From there, the stories only get stranger. An Iowa man faces serious federal charges for selling protected Alabama turtles. A Nebraska wedding planner is SA’ed just before the ceremony. A 45-day manhunt for murder suspect Isabelle Johnson finally ends. A man literally smashes a hole through an apartment closet wall to attack a teenager. And a North Carolina man turns a Morgan Wallen concert into a nightmare by urinating on an entire family. We also break down the disturbing case of a couple caught bonding out women… only to traffick them. In Overtime:

• True Crime Time Machine takes us back to the deadly Ruby Ridge standoff
• A New Jersey psychotherapist murder that has gone ice cold
• “Nemo” lands behind bars in this week’s Lustful Lawbreakers
• And a Baton Rouge man is pulled over in Memphis… with a dead body riding shotgun
