#549: Geo-Forensics 1

Who is killing the indigenous women of Alaska? Spoiler alert, it is not that hard to figure out if proper investigations had been done, yet time and time again, these victims’ deaths are ignored, suspects are not questioned, evidence is not collected, autopsy reports are glossed over, known repeat offenders are not prosecuted, and on the rare occasions when they are prosecuted, judges are letting them go with less than a slap on the wrist. Joining us to discuss two such cases is victims’ advocate Antonia Unaqsiq Commack of Missing and Murdered In Alaska, a group that often focuses on violence against Alaska Natives. Antonia is Inupiaq from the Native Village of Shungnak. Antonia herself has had two close friends murdered by their intimate partners and since 2017 has devoted herself to shouting loudly to make the public aware of the injustices going on in her community. Antonia takes us through the deaths of two women in Kotzebue, Alaska - Jennifer Kirk and Sue Sue Norton -- who died under extremely suspicious circumstances and who need to get much more attention from those in power to deliver justice. Their stories are just the tip of the iceberg.

We conclude our coverage of “American Nightmare” the story of Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn and the secondary trauma they suffered at the hands of law enforcement, the media and the general public at large who refused to believe their story about what happened to them when they were attacked by a sadistic and dangerous offender Matthew Muller. Why did the “Gone Girl” narrative – that Denise staged her own kidnapping -- take hold of everyone’s imaginations at the exclusion of the truth and the evidence? Jim and Laura take us through what law enforcement should have done to investigate this case as well as analyze Muller’s behavior in planning and executing his crimes. #realcrimeprofile #TrueCrime #podcast #ExpertAnalysis #FBI #NewScotlandYard #CriminalBehavior #BehaviorAnalysis #rapist #coercivecontrol #stalker #survivorFollow us and continue the conversationOn Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/realcrimeprofile/?hl=enOn Twitterhttps://twitter.com/realcrimeprofilOn Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/realcrimeprofile/>>>>>>>>> SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS <<<<<<<<<<<<<<CRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

"Did you scream?" is the question Detective Mustard asked Denise Huskins when she described her kidnapping and repeated rapes at the hands of Matthew Muller, the man who terrorized her for two days in his remote cabin in the Lake Tahoe area. Laura and Jim tear apart the victim blaming at the heart of this question and the deeply held bias this detective seemed to have against women who have suffered sexual abuse. Join us as we continue discussing "American Nightmare" the three part docu-series now streaming on Netflix which gives Denise and her now husband Aaron Quinn the chance to tell their side of this terrifying story. #realcrimeprofile #TrueCrime #podcast #ExpertAnalysis #FBI #NewScotlandYard #CriminalBehavior #BehaviorAnalysis #rapist #coercivecontrol #stalker #survivorFollow us and continue the conversationOn Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/realcrimeprofile/?hl=enOn Twitterhttps://twitter.com/realcrimeprofilOn Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/realcrimeprofile/>>>>>>>>> SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS <<<<<<<<<<<<<<CRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

You know them from the current #1 Netflix documentary “American Nightmare” about their harrowing experience after a stranger invaded their home and upended their lives, but before the show, there was their book “Victim F”. Real Crime Profile was one of the first podcasts to interview Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn. They sat down with us in 2021 to go over the many details of what they experienced. Much of their story did not make it into the Netflix series, so join us now for this encore episode to hear what they shared with us.

"American Nightmare" streaming now, has been the #1 show on Netflix for the past few weeks. It is a story the Real Crime Profile team knows well. We interviewed Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn in June 2021 and they shared their incredible and harrowing story of how a predatory serial stalker and rapist upended their world and how they fought back for justice and to reclaim their lives. In 2015, the couple were awakened in the middle of the night by lasers and a man wearing all black with a gun. Aaron and Denise were then bound and drugged. Denise was kidnapped, placed in the trunk of a car and driven to an isolated location. There she was raped twice and terrorized. The kidnapper demanded ransom from a traumatized Aaron who decided to go to the police. What happened next you will not believe. The Real Crime Profile team reviews "American Nightmare" and discusses how well it captures Denise and Aaron’s story as well as how it fits as a companion to their book “Victim F”.Listen to our previous series where we interview Denise and Aaron, Detective Misty Carausu and Nicki Weisensee Egan:https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/victim-f-part-1-denise-huskins-aaron-quinn-interview/id1081244497?i=1000527404551#realcrimeprofile #TrueCrime #podcast #ExpertAnalysis #FBI #NewScotlandYard #CriminalBehavior #BehaviorAnalysis #rapist #coercivecontrol #stalker #survivorFollow us and continue the conversationOn Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/realcrimeprofile/?hl=enOn Twitterhttps://twitter.com/realcrimeprofilOn Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/realcrimeprofile/>>>>>>>>> SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS <<<<<<<<<<<<<<CRIME ANALYST PODCAST - You’re interested in real crime?

We continue our discussion about Natalia Grace, her life as far as we know it and the case built against her by her adoptive parents Michael and Kristine Barnett who claimed Natalia was a manipulative, dangerous, sociopath posing as a child while actually being a full grown adult. Sounds like something out of a bad Hollywood movie, but it is a narrative that has followed Natalia throughout her trauma filled life and has had serious consequences. Laura and Jim analyze Natalia’s behavior as well as the actions and statements of the people around her. Who is telling the truth? Who is abusing and coercively controlling who? Who do you believe?

From the very start of her life, Natalia Grace has been passed around like a human football and exploited. From the moment of her birth in Ukraine when doctors encouraged her mother Anna Volodymyrivna Gava to give her baby up due to her diagnosis of dwarfism, Natalia has been denied a stable, loving home and instead been placed with people who had no business caring for her and had no capacity for loving her. Today we examine Natalia’s complex and convoluted case, made only more confusing by the docu-series “The Curious Case of Natalia Grace”. We examine the many narrators in this story including Michael Barnett who along with his wife Kristine adopted Natalia, appeared to abuse her both physically and mentally, coercively controlled her and then bizarrely sought to prove Natalia was not a child, but an adult woman pretending to be a child, legally "re-aging" her. Jim and Laura analyze the evidence and try to discern who is telling the truth and what actually happened. Can there be any excuse for traumatizing and abandoning a dependent person with a severe disability (be they a child or an adult) to fend for themselves with no means of care?

We have a huge update on the killer just identified as responsible for at least two of the serial killings in the Colonial Parkway murders which occurred in the late 1980s in Virginia. Joining us to discuss the identification of fisherman Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. as the murderer of 20-year-old David Knobling and 14-year-old Robin Edwards are our good friends from Mind Over Murder podcast, Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley. Bill Thomas, whose sister Cathy Thomas’ murder is considered part of the Colonial Parkway killings, has a lot to share about this suspect as well as how the FBI has framed his involvement in other murders. Bill has been dedicated to finding his sister’s killer for over 30 years. Police have confirmed they believe Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. to also be responsible for the 1989 rape and murder of Teresa Lynn Spaw Howell, 29. Will he be linked to more? Laura and Jim share their analyses & thoughts regarding this serial killer and the types of offenses he may well have committed. We also discuss Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. being a prime suspect in the Cassandra Hailey & Keith Call murders. Many family members of these victims are still desperately waiting to hear if Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. is connected to their loved ones’ cases, so any help the public can provide is very important. Please listen closely to the descriptions that Bill gives of Alan Wade Wilmer Sr., his vehicle and boat.
