Everyone has an opinion about the 1993 Chandler case. Almost nobody has the full timeline. That changes with this episode.I’m walking through the entire sequence: how Michael Jackson befriended the Chandler family through a car rental encounter. How the sleepovers and international trips began. How a custody dispute between Jordan’s parents turned a friendship into a weapon. How Evan Chandler was recorded threatening to destroy Jackson before his son said a word about abuse. How a psychiatrist’s

Richard Allen’s appellate defense team filed a reply brief and motion for oral arguments before the Indiana Court of Appeals, characterizing the State’s case as “superficial inference stacking” built on “tunnel vision into the wrong man.” Attorneys Stacy Uliana and Mark Leeman wrote that “the State’s case was a paper tiger, and the trial court systematically barred Allen from lighting a match.”The defense’s reply responds to the State’s brief filed in March, which argued Allen’s conviction should

The legal system has a schedule. Grief doesn't. That gap is the story of the Reiner case right now. At his most recent hearing, Nick Reiner said one word, the judge pushed the case to September, and the family that lost Rob and Michele Reiner was told — again — to wait. The autopsy reports aren't finished. The defense needs more discovery. The prosecution needs the Medical Examiner's findings. Nobody's ready. And the preliminary hearing that will determine if this case even goes to trial is still

Greater Grace: The Doctrine That Protected Abusers

2026/05/05

A 172-page independent investigation into Greater Grace World Outreach found something beyond the alleged abuse itself. It found the system that kept it hidden.At the center: two theological teachings that functioned as silencing tools. One took a Christian doctrine about grace and pushed it until confronting a leader about harm was treated as your spiritual deficiency. The other classified anyone who raised concerns as carrying "evil reports" — a label that made you radioactive within the

2026/05/05

The procedural and forensic dispute over the Ka-Bar knife sheath in the Bryan Kohberger case raises evidentiary questions that his guilty plea ensured no judge or jury would ever evaluate. Defense forensic scientist Brent Turvey alleges the chain of custody documentation was retroactive, potentially constituting evidence tampering, false reporting, and professional misconduct.

Eric Richins knew something was wrong. In the fall of 2020, he discovered that his wife had been draining his finances — taking out unauthorized credit lines, accumulating debt in his name, and running a house-flipping business that was hemorrhaging money behind his back. He consulted a divorce attorney. He met with an estate planner. He created a trust to protect his three sons. And he did all of it in silence, because the man she married no longer trusted her with his family’s future. In part one

Michael Jackson Accusations: The Full Evidence Exposed

2026/05/04

There’s a reason this story never goes away. Every few years, a new accuser surfaces, a new lawsuit is filed, a new settlement is paid — and the conversation resets to the same two positions: he did it, or they’re lying. Neither position accounts for the full evidence. Both positions protect someone’s bottom line. And the rest of us are left trying to figure out how to feel about a catalog of music that’s woven into the fabric of our lives.This is True Crime Today, and I’m starting a five-part deep

And yet somehow, the fight over what happened in this case is more intense now than it was before the plea.At the center of it: Brent Turvey, a forensic scientist the defense team hired and now wishes would disappear.

Carl Stevens was an appliance salesman in rural Maine who said God gave him a vision at a pond. From that single claim, he built Greater Grace World Outreach — a network of churches, schools, and missions that spread across more than seventy countries, operated its own Bible college, and ran a daily radio program.For decades, it flew under the radar. Then a group of former members started comparing notes. That led to a Baltimore Banner investigation, a public outcry, and eventually a 172-page

The Indiana Attorney General filed its response to Richard Allen's appeal on March 25, 2026 — a ninety-four-page brief arguing that Allen's conviction for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German should stand. Allen was convicted in November 2024 and sentenced to 130 years.

The eleven-count indictment against Caleb Flynn includes three counts of tampering with evidence — a charge set that, in the context of a case initially reported as a home invasion, points directly to a prosecution theory that the crime scene at the Flynn residence on Cunningham Court in Tipp City, Ohio, was staged. The indictment also includes aggravated murder, three counts of murder, two counts of felonious assault, and two misdemeanor counts of intimidating a witness. Flynn, 39, has pled not

Charlotte Studey's death was classified as self-inflicted for nearly forty years. She reportedly died in Omaha in 1984 from a rifle shot to the head. She was five-foot-two. Nothing was documented at the scene that she could have used to trigger the weapon. The original crime scene and autopsy photographs are missing from Omaha police records. In 2023, a re-autopsy found a possible defensive wound on her arm and reclassified her manner of death as undetermined. Charlotte was one of Don Studey's

Sandra Birchmore's death was classified as something other than homicide by the state medical examiner — a determination that still stands despite a federal indictment charging former Stoughton police detective Matthew Farwell with killing her and causing the death of her unborn son. That contradiction between the state finding and the federal prosecution is the fault line this case will be fought on. And the forensic evidence prosecutors have assembled since Farwell's arrest directly challenges
