Ep 145: The Murdaugh Murders: Final Facts and Thoughts, Part 17
Laura shares final key events in the timeline including further federal and state financial charges against Murdaugh and the murder trial whereby Murdaugh admitted under oath that he stole from his clients and firm PMPED. However, after Murdaugh was convicted for murdering Maggie and Paul, curiously Murdaugh pled not guilty to the federal financial charges. Laura also discusses Murdaugh’s statement to Judge Newman “I would never hurt my wife, Maggie, and I would never hurt my son, Paw Paw” as well as highlighting what happened to Murdaugh’s cronies, Russell Laffitte and Cory Fleming, at their sentencing hearings. Laura shares her thoughts on Gloria Satterfield’s so-called ‘trip and fall’ and Murdaugh’s lies regarding Gloria’s death and settlement, as well as latest developments in Stephen Smith’s terrible murder.

Ep 144: The Murdaugh Murders: The Macro Timeline continued Part 16
Laura continues to highlight and analyse key events in the macro timeline including Murdaugh’s public statement which he released via his lawyer, Dick Harpootlian, on September 6th stating that that he was stepping down from PMPED and was entering rehab for his opiate addiction. Laura examines the evidence to support Murdaugh’s claim of being a drug addict and that he lied due to his so-called ‘drug fuelled paranoia.’ Laura also analyses Murdaugh’s second statement that he made to SLED with his lawyers Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin present on September 13th about the September 4 so-called roadside shooting and compares it to Curtis Eddie Smith’s statement. Laura details the mounting financial charges against Murdaugh and his legal teams’ desperate attempts to control the narrative.

Ep 142: The Murdaugh Murders: Analysing the Macro Timeline of Events, Part 14
Laura continues to unravel the timeline including Murdaugh’s significant debt and borrowing, his horrific abuse of power and trust of vulnerable clients and so-called drug addiction. Pamela Pinckney, her son Hakeem Pinckney along with Alania Plyler Spohn and Hannah Plyler turned to Murdaugh at the very worst time in their lives. He used and exploited them, funnelling off money from their legal wins in addition to the money he earned from inflated legal fees and expenses. Laura shares what this behaviour reveals about Murdaugh’s psychology and how it relates to the motive for brutally killing Maggie and Paul and staging their murders as a revenge kill for the boat crash. Laura highlights the recent news in Mallory Beach’s family lawsuit settlement against Murdaugh and the store that sold Paul the alcohol the night he crashed the boat resulting in Mallory’s death.

Ep 141: Profiling Dennis Rader and Rex Heuermann with Kerri Rawson
Laura interviews Kerri Rawson, survivor, advocate, New York Times bestselling author and daughter of serial killer Dennis Rader, who gave himself a horrific moniker due to how he bound, tortured, and killed his victims. On Friday 14th July, 59-year-old husband and father of two, Rex Heuermann, was charged with the murders of Melissa Barthelemy, Amber Costello and Megan Waterman. Their remains were discovered within a quarter of a mile of one another covered in burlap along Ocean Parkway on Long Island’s South Shore in 2010. Heuermann is also suspected of other murders including Maureen Brainard-Barnes. Kerri’s father Dennis Rader was 59, the president of the church, and married with two children when he was arrested in 2005. He was later charged with the murders of 10 people in Wichita and Park City, Kansas between 1974 and 1991. He is suspected of others. Rader centered himself in the Gilgo Beach Murders on Friday 21 July, writing a letter to Fox News Digital laying out similarities between himself and Rex Heuermann. Laura believes men like Rader and Heuermann hide in plain sight and are overlooked for similar reasons. Just like what’s happening with the Heuermann case right now, when Rader was arrested, his family, friends, and co-workers were shocked to discover that the serial killer police were hunting had been among them, going to work, raising his children, and acting ‘normal.’ But Laura doesn’t buy into that. She believes we are asking the wrong questions and that we must use the framework of coercive control and make the invisible visible. Whilst working at the FBI in Quantico, Laura continued her research and analysis into serial perpetrators, which included an in-depth case conference with the FBI profiler who played a pivotal role in Dennis Rader’s capture, interviewing Rader for more than 30 hours. One question Laura asked related to domestic abuse and control related behaviours. Laura was informed there was no abuse at home. Now, in this raw and honest interview, Laura finally gets to the bottom of what was really going on at home – and like with many cases, a very different picture emerges when we ask the right questions of the right people. Join Laura as she unravels the warning signs of how to identify serial killers far earlier. Everyone should listen to this episode – it might just save a life. Listener discretion is advised. #MelissaBarthelemy #AmberCostello #MeganWaterman #MaureenBrainardBarnes #SerialKillers #WomenMatter #Murder #Femicide #MaleViolence #Intervention #Prevention #CoerciveControl #RexHeuermann #DennisRader #CrimeAnalyst #Expert #Analysis #TrueCrime #Podcast #TrueCrimePodcast Watch Crime Analyst YouTube Video, The Case Against Rex Heuermann https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCksfRSwfwFqUCjcxKYju6_Q Buy Kerri Rawson’s Book https://www.amazon.com/Serial-Killers-Daughter-Story-Overcoming/dp/1400201756 Clips https://www.foxnews.com/us/serial-killer-dennis-rader-calls-gilgo-beach-suspect-rex-heuermann-clone-me Sources https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/crime/btk-killer-rex-heuermann-gilgo-beach-murders-b2379925.html The British Podcast Awards – VOTE for Crime Analyst https://www.britishpodcastawards.com/ YouTube, Socials and Website YouTube @crimeanalyst Instagram @crimeanalyst @laurarichards999 Twitter @thecrimeanalyst @laurarichards999 TikTok @crimeanalystpod Website www.crime-analyst.com Crime Analyst Merch https://crime-analyst.myshopify.com/ Leave a Review https://www.crime-analyst.com/reviews/new/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 140: The Murdaugh Murders: Analysing the Macro Timeline of Events, Part 13
Laura continues to unravel the timeline and shares that, in addition to the boat crash case and PMPED’s COO and CFO Jeanne Seckinger’s confrontation with Murdaugh about the missing $792k missing legal fees on June 7th, there was another very serious investigation into Murdaugh’s behaviour and finances, which began before Maggie and Paul’s murders. Laura then details Gloria Satterfield’s troubling case and how a Judge signed off on a $4.3m settlement, which included $1.45m attorney fees and $105,000 prosecution expenses, which went to guess who? Gloria’s family knew nothing about this. One month before signing off on the settlement, that same Judge recused herself from the boat crash case due to her long-standing relationship with Murdaugh. In this episode, Laura also highlights first hand testimony from those who knew Murdaugh the best which helps develop the behavioural profile of Murdaugh and talks to motive.

Ep 139: The Murdaugh Murders: Analysing the Macro Timeline of Events, Part 12
In this episode Laura starts her deep dive into the Murdaugh family's timeline. In the family’s orbit, there are at least five dead bodies in six years, including Stephen Smith, Gloria Satterfield, Mallory Beach, and Maggie and Paul. However, Laura doesn't stop there. She takes a wide-angle lens approach to the case, tracing it back to the beginning of the Murdaugh family's reign of power and influence. This includes business partnerships with convicted drug traffickers and the suspicious death of a key federal witness just before he was due to give evidence. As Laura continues her analysis, she also examines the shifting dynamics between Murdaugh and two significant women in his life. Both women begin questioning him about money, refusing to play by his rules. Additionally, Laura delves into the boat crash that resulted in Mallory Beach's death and a lawyer who was not afraid to hold Murdaugh accountable and ensure justice for the Beach family at all costs. Overall, Laura's deep dive into the Murdaugh family's timeline is a shocking and eye-opening look at the dark side of power, control, and influence. Join Laura as she breaks it down.

Ep 138: The Murdaugh Murders: Analysing the Timeline of Events cont. Part 11
Laura details and shares her thoughts and analysis on the micro timeline, including Murdaugh’s explanation for his sudden burst of activity - of his 283 steps in 4 minutes whilst making many phone calls. Laura discusses the curious missing calls from Murdaugh’s call log, and how, despite the call records showing his many calls to reach Maggie, his behaviour reveals he consciously avoided going to the kennels to speak with Maggie. Laura also gets into the 4820 data points that tracked Murdaugh’s Suburban that night and how he travelled on dark country roads at 80mph, whilst texting his lawyer friend. The data, when paired with Murdaugh’s behaviour, paint a powerful picture of events on June 7. Join Laura as she breaks it down.
