Dr. Robert Hadden was a trusted OB-GYN at Columbia University. Friendly, caring, unassuming… and behind the closed door of exam rooms, one of the most prolific sexual predators in New York City. During his 25-year career, he assaulted hundreds, perhaps thousands, of patients, under the guise of medical exams. Those who tried to warn Columbia were ignored or not believed. When it appeared that no one — not Hadden, not Columbia — would be held to account, it was the survivors who undertook a decade-long fight for justice. From Wondery, Exposed: Cover-Up at Columbia University is a story about power: who has it, who loses it, and what it takes to get it back.Follow Exposed on Amazon Music or wherever you get your podcasts.

On Feb 15th 2003, Kristi Johnson, a bright 21 year old college student, was approached at a mall in Los Angeles by convicted rapist Victor Paleologus. She had no way of knowing he was not who he said he was, no way of knowing he had seven previous convictions and had just been granted parole. All she knew was this affable, helpful seeming man who said he was a movie producer started talking to her about the entertainment industry and offered her an opportunity to apply for a job. Kristi aspired to be part of the entertainment industry, not as an actress, but maybe in PR, maybe in other capacities, she didn't know yet, she was still learning the landscape of Hollywood but she was eager to work hard. She couldn't have known that he had hunted and attacked many women before. Paleologus targeted Kristi, lured her to an abandoned location in the Hollywood Hills, killed her and disposed of her body in a ravine. Now twenty years later, this killer is up for parole. Today we are joined by Kristi's parents, Terry Hall and Kirk Johnson who tell us of those excruciating days trying to find their missing daughter and how now they are being traumatized all over again as their daughter's murderer is up for an early parole. Join us for this painful but necessary conversation about the inequities of the parole system for families of victims. Find out more about Kristi and how you can help keep this dangerous repeat offender behind bars. https://www.justiceforkristi.org#KristiJohnson #MurderVictim #FamiliesofVictims #ParoleSystem #DangerousOffender #RepeatOffender #RealCrimeProfile #TrueCrime #podcast #ExpertAnalysis #FBI #NewScotlandYard #CriminalBehavior #BehaviorAnalysis #VictimAdvocateFollow 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?

Laura & Jim continue their discussion with Andrea Dunlop, host of “Nobody Should Believe Me” who has strong criticisms about the documentary “Take Care of Maya” based on her own background with medical child abuse. Andrea casts doubts about Beate Kowalski’s behavior toward her daughter Maya, she has doubts about the doctors who treated Maya before her admittance to Johns Hopkins Children’s Hospital…in addition to doubts on Jack Kowalski’s motives for suing the hospital who separated his daughter from her family. Jim and Laura explain what they see as the deep flaws in the investigation into Beate, and the assumptions about the family's behavior. Laura and Jim examine the entire context and highlight the most important aspects of the case in their professional view.We will post on our FB page several sources for our listeners to make up their own minds: (1) the transcript of the interview that Laura mentions that Detective Stephanie Graham conducted with Jack Kowalski about his wife Beate’s behavior and his daughter Maya’s illness; (2) Detective Graham’s deposition in which she admits her suspicion of the Kowalski's was totally based on what she learned from Dr. Sally Smith, the child abuse pediatrician; (3) the court ordered psychological evaluation of Beate Kowalski, which contains crucial written statements by another patient Jessica Stevens (and her mother Sarah Stevens) who was also treated by Dr. Kirkpatrick for CRPS , and who was also put into a medically induced Ketamine coma in the same clinic in Mexico overseen by Dr. Cantu. (He also treated Maya). The Stevens family knew Beate and Maya and have a lot of important observations.Finally, in this episode, Andrea mentions the case of her sister Megan Carter, who was investigated for medical child abuse. It is only fair that we supply the actual opinion of the court, where the judge found no factual basis for child abuse by her sister Megan. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6567384-Megan-Carter-Court-Order.htmlAndrea also mentions the NBC investigative report into her sister's case and about the doctors involved in Megan’s case. Here is that article too. https://www.king5.com/amp/article/news/investigations/mary-bridge-elizabeth-woods-child-abuse-pediatrics/281-d4fc8654-1acb-4906-b900-2034190ef2a9This is a complicated set of cases definitely worth discussion. #RealCrimeProfile #ExpertAnalysis #BehavioralAnalysis #FBI #NewScotlandYard #Podcast #MayaKowalski #BeateKowalski #JackKowalski #KyleKowalski #FalseAccusations #MunchausenbyProxy #FactitiousDisorder #FabricatedIllness #InducedIllness #MedicalChildAbuse #ComplexRegionalPainSyndrome #CRPS #RareIllness #ThePainIsRealYou can find Andrea's "Nobody Should Believe Me" podcast her: https://pod.link/1615637188Andrea's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreadunlop/And Andrea's Munchausen Support group which is the 501 c 3 and has a ton of resources from the APSAC committee: https://www.munchausensupport.com/ Follow 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?

Laura and Jim interview Andrea Dunlop host of "Nobody Should Believe Me" a podcast about Munchausen by Proxy (also now referred to as Factitious Disorder.) In the UK this is known as Fabricated or Induced illness (FII). Andrea is a member of the American Professional Society on the Abuse of Children’s Munchausen by Proxy committee and the co-founder of Munchausen Support, a resource site for victims. Andrea has been outspoken in her criticism of Beate Kowalski, the mom at the heart of the documentary "Take Care of Maya" who fought so hard to find a treatment for her 9 year old daughter Maya’s rare condition of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. Laura and Jim discuss the evidence Andrea claims to support her position that Beate abused Maya. Many experts in CRPS treated Maya and confirmed her diagnosis time and time again, as did her own pediatrician Dr. John Wassenaar who submitted a detailed affidavit and who observed Maya before, during and after her release from Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital. Despite this, Andrea still thinks Beate was most likely guilty of medical child abuse. What do you think?

There is so much more to discuss about the Long Island Serial Killings and the evidence against the suspect who is in custody for the murders of Amber Costello, Megan Waterman and Melissa Barthelemy. In addition to the victims who were brutally murdered, there are other victims in the orbit of this case, if indeed Rex Heuermann is the killer. Asa Ellerup was married to Heuermann for 27 years. She has since filed for divorce but she and their two children are also caught up in his crime and their world has changed forever. Lisa asks Jim and Laura their expert opinions on where they think these victims were actually murdered, if they think the killer used an alternate private location before disposing of their bodies on and around Gilgo Beach Long Island. Laura probes the timelines and wonders if there are other victims far earlier than anyone knows, drawing from learning from other cases including serial killer Dennis Rader.Listen to Laura's Crime Analyst interview with Kerri Rawson, Dennis Rader's daughter who provides key insight in her father's behaviour:https://www.crime-analyst.com/ep-141-profiling-dennis-radar-and-rex-heuermann-with-kerri-rawson/#LISK #GilgoBeachMurders #SerialKiller #HerNameWasAmberCostello #HerNameWasMeganWaterman #HerNameWasMelissa Barthelemy #BreakingNews #TrueCrime #Podcast #FollowTheEvidence #Victimology #ExpertAnalysis #RealCrimeProfile #CriminalBehavior #SuffolkCounty Follow us and continue the conversationOn Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/realcrimeprofile/?hl=enOn Twitterhttps://twitter.com/realcrimeprofilOn Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/realcrimeprofile/SUICIDE PREVENTION LIFELINE - CALL 988If you’re thinking about suicide, are worried about a friend or loved one, or would like emotional support, the Lifeline network is available 24/7 across the United States.988 is now active across the United States.

LONG ISLAND SERIAL KILLINGS PART 2We continue delving into the Long Island Serial Killings cases recently in the news, as the investigations into the murders of many young women, a young man and a toddler have accelerated. There is one main suspect in custody and Jim and Laura weigh in on the significance of the pieces of evidence against him for at least 3 of these killings - that of Amber Costello, Megan Waterman and Melissa Barthelemy. We also discuss the conflicts of interest that certain members of law enforcement may have had involving sex workers in this local area — who may have been connected to some of these victims. #LISK #GilgoBeachMurders #SerialKiller #HerNameWasAmberCostello #HerNameWasMeganWaterman #HerNameWasMelissa Barthelemy #BreakingNews #TrueCrime #Podcast #FollowTheEvidence #Victimology #ExpertAnalysis #RealCrimeProfile #CriminalBehavior #SuffolkCounty Follow us and continue the conversationOn Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/realcrimeprofile/?hl=enOn Twitterhttps://twitter.com/realcrimeprofilOn Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/realcrimeprofile/SUICIDE PREVENTION LIFELINE - CALL 988If you’re thinking about suicide, are worried about a friend or loved one, or would like emotional support, the Lifeline network is available 24/7 across the United States.988 is now active across the United States.

Today we give an update on the newly identified remains of a woman found near the Fire Island Beach area of Long Island, New York. News broke on Friday August 4th when DA Raymond Tierney called a press conference at very short notice to report that this woman, previously known to police as "Fire Island Jane Doe" had been positively identified as Karen Vergata. She is one of at least eighteen other victims murdered in the Gilgo Beach/Jones Beach/Fire Island vicinity. Karen went missing on Valentine’s Day in 1996, last seen in Manhattan which is at least sixty miles away from where some of her remains were discovered. Is she connected to Rex Heuermann, the suspect arrested on July 13th charged with the murders of Amber Costello, Megan Waterman and Melissa Barthelemy, three women who all went missing in 2009 and 2010 before their bodies were found along Gilgo Beach? Join us as we talk it out. Our thoughts go out to Karen's family and friends as they process this new information about their loved one.#HerNameWasKarenVergata #SheWasSomeone #GilgoBeachMurders #SerialKiller #HerNameWasAmberCostello #HerNameWasMeganWaterman #HerNameWasMelissa Barthelemy #BreakingNews #TrueCrime #Podcast #FollowTheEvidence #Victimology #ExpertAnalysis #RealCrimeProfile #CriminalBehavior #SuffolkCounty Follow us and continue the conversationOn Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/realcrimeprofile/?hl=enOn Twitterhttps://twitter.com/realcrimeprofilOn Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/realcrimeprofile/SUICIDE PREVENTION LIFELINE - CALL 988If you’re thinking about suicide, are worried about a friend or loved one, or would like emotional support, the Lifeline network is available 24/7 across the United States.988 is now active across the United States.
