56: The First Crime Ever Committed In Space Was...A Lie?

(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) Before 2019, no crimes had been committed in space (that we know of). After poring over records, the New York Times could only come up with three things: (1) damage to a Russian satellite that was allegedly China’s fault; (2) a lawsuit seeking to recover a deposit somebody put down for a space-tourism trip; and (3) a U.S.-government sting operation aimed at recovering a moon rock. Only one of those happened in space, though, and none of them are crimes.

That is, until an ex-wife of a NASA astronaut decided to play petty.


Reb launches us into two cases: (1) a bad break up and (2) a horrific moon-rock-related detention by federal agents of a Granny in a diner parking lot.

This is Summer Heather Worden v. Anne McClain (2019) (2025) and Joann Davis v. United States (2017).
