I watched the interview Nate Eaton did with Keith M. Keith said that they had sources from the beginning of the case. I think the info was leaked before the gag order was in place. They clearly had video footage and cell phone data before the arrest affidavit was issued and most likely had the Amazon info by then too. I think investigating a violation of the order is going to be a dead end. Everyone will preserve data from the date the order was issued and it will lead to nothing. Anyone catch any evidence that was post order on the show?

Welcome to Boise again, Lauren. Who could known that mormon true crime was gonna be the most interesting thing here? Hey...I'm trying to our message out there instead of O.U.R., a disinfo juggernaut. Wouldn't you love to interview these ladies for your show? www.facebook.com/share/p/1BxYxgwr6d/

PLEASE give us a heads up ahead of time when you plan to go live. Thank You.

I’m crossing my fingers this is the last major crime you have to cover in Boise. 🤣. Poor Idaho.

Is that your Puffer B jacket? 😂

It really bothers me me that they are trying to use autism as a defense

Did they test the cocktail glass for fingerprints, John was drinking beer?

I would like for us to get into the Ellen Greenberg case.

The Karen Read trial is interesting - I can’t decide one way or the other

Amazing, insightful commentary delivered conversationally by a journalist and forensic psychologist couple from their family home. Wonderfully engaging & intimate. Always linking the discussion of the crime at hand to larger truths about the human condition. One of my absolute favorite crime series.

Your podcast effectively weaves a tapestry of facts, knowledge, instinct and research that not only applies to the cases being discussed, but provides an opportunity for the listeners to employ the strategies discussed and enrich their own relationships.

Podcast I didn’t know I needed: I’ve been an avid true crime podcast listener, always seeming as though I walked away missing something. This podcast fills that void. The deep psychological dive this couple takes is both needed in this world of true crime and much appreciated.

I am stunned by your competency- content and presentation- as a team.

You guys need more followers. I watched all the Daybell-Vallow episodes in one day. I have some of the same traits and mental health issues that Lori has. I don’t want to kill anybody, but you explained the problem. Thank you. I wish you were my mental health professional.

This is the best assessment, hands down, I have heard in years with regard to analysis of the criminal mind…thank you for having such integrity and for not talking down to your audience.

I looked forward to listening to your first podcast and thoroughly enjoyed it. Novel, unique, intelligent, insightful and even inspiring. Who would have thought I could listen to an episode about this case and walk away feeling inclined to be more grateful, grounded, mindful, and accepting of my humanity and mortality? Love both of you and can’t wait for the next one.

I listened to all the podcasts. Very valuable, interesting and intriguing information! I love the way John speaks and teaches. I love his references and stories. I LOVE how he explains Chad’s behaviors through psychology, referencing well respected clinical philosophies. John explains what I sensed about him…I plan to listen to these podcasts again because they are just plain educational! And very interesting. Looking forward to dinner next week!

I love hearing a point of view from someone who understands the mind of a criminal. Please put out more podcasts and consider doing one live. I have so many questions!

This is utterly brilliant. The best podcast I have ever heard. Ever.

The most important podcast I’ve ever heard. This has to be some of the most profound content in media today. A must listen for anyone trying to understand dysfunctional people around them.
