I’m standing at a remote rest stop in eastern Nevada, south of Ely where a 1974 stopover became the crime scene of yet another victim of serial killer Paul John Knowles, also known as The Casanova Killer. This episode examines how Knowles used mobility as a weapon, why rest stops and highways became part of his hunting strategy, and how his victim selection evolved as his confidence grew and his mistakes mounted. This isn’t just a story about a serial killer. It’s a story about movement, vulnerability, and how ordinary places can become dangerous when a predator intersects with routine. If you care about true crime as understanding and not a spectacle, this episode is for you.#TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #SerialKiller #SerialKillers #CrimeAnalysis #GIS #ArcGIS #Esri #PaulJohnKnowles #CasanovaKiller #ColdCase #CrimeScene #Victim #Justice #AliceHenriettaCurtis #ImaJeanSanders #LillianAnnetteAnderson #MyletteJosephineAnderson #MarjorieEvelynHowie #KathieSuePierce #WilliamBates #EmmettAlexanderJohnson #LoisMildredJohnson #EbonCharlynnHicks #AnnJeanDawson #KarenWine #DawnMarieWine #DorisHosey #EdwardHillard #DebbieGriffin #CarswellHallCarrSr #AmandaBethCarr #CharlesEugeneCampbell #JamesMeyer #CasanovaKiller========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
I’m continuing my true crime travels through Europe, this time through Baden-Baden, the Black Forest, Triberg and Freiburg. These are some of the most beautiful places you can visit in Germany, but each one carries a darker story beneath the scenery. In Baden-Baden, we look at the witch trials of 1627 to 1631, when fear, religion, politics and forced confessions helped turn accusation into execution. In the Black Forest and Triberg, we talk about Heinrich Pommerenke, the violent West German serial offender known as the “Beast of the Black Forest,” whose 1959 crimes showed how predators can use roads, railways, stations and public spaces to move across a region. Then in Freiburg, we examine the 2016 murder of 19-year-old medical student Maria Ladenburger, a case built through careful police work, DNA, transit surveillance and phone data.We’re talking more than just crime cases. We’ll dig into evidence, fear, geography, victimology and the way beautiful places disguise criminal horror stories. How justice systems can replace proof with panic or how offenders move discretely through ordinary spaces and how good investigations come together one fact at a time.#ProfilingEvil #TrueCrime #BadenBaden #BlackForest #Triberg #Freiburg #GermanyTrueCrime #EuropeanTrueCrime #WitchTrials #BadenBadenWitchTrials #HeinrichPommerenke #BeastOfTheBlackForest #MariaLadenburger #CriminalBehavior #Victimology #BehavioralAnalysis #CrimeHistory #HistoricalCrime #SerialKiller #PredatorBehavior #DigitalForensics #DNAEvidence #ColdCaseMindset #CrimeAndTravel #TravelTrueCrime #MappingEvil #GIS #Esri #Mapping #CrimeMap #Investigation #EvidenceMatters #TrueCrimeCommunity========================================CrimeCon Discount Code: https://crimecon.regfox.com/cctw3ntys1x (In Voucher/Coupon area, enter: PROFILINGEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
When survivors finally begin talking about abuse, especially years later, the truth rarely arrives in one neat statement. It often comes in fragments, sensory flashes, and moments that can leave spouses and families confused, hurt, or unsure what to do next. In this episode, Mike King sits down with psychologist Dr. Patrice Berry to walk through one of the hardest true crime realities behind closed doors, delayed disclosure. They talk about why trauma memories can surface in pieces, why some survivors do not speak until marriage, parenthood, retirement, or a major case in the news, and what loved ones should do in the first hours and days after disclosure. This conversation also looks at criminal justice pressure points, including credibility attacks, investigative contamination concerns, and the damage that can happen when a survivor is doubted, rushed, or forced into details before they are ready. If you care about victims, spouses, memory, and the way trauma ripples through families long after the crime, this episode matters.#TrueCrime #Trauma #ChildAbuse #SexualAbuse #SurvivorVoices #TraumaRecovery #VictimAdvocacy #CoerciveControl #CultAbuse #ComplexTrauma #PTSD #Dissociation #DelayedDisclosure #FamilyTrauma #CriminalJustice #ForensicPsychology #TraumaInformed #CSA #MaleSurvivors #ProfilingEvil #PatriceBerry========================================CrimeCon Discount Code: https://crimecon.regfox.com/cctw3ntys1x (In Voucher/Coupon area, enter: PROFILINGEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
I’m in Europe for the next three weeks, mixing a little vacation time with some true crime. I’m recording parts of this episode in Amsterdam and Cologne, near the place where Peter Kürten was raised, and I’ll also spend two days in Düsseldorf walking the crime scenes tied to one of Germany’s most infamous killers. I’ll start in Amsterdam, a city with more than enough crime, vice and history for a full episode, but after recent King’s Day violence, including a reported shooting in Amsterdam-West and a stabbing near the Kingsland festival at Olympic Stadium, I wanted to step away from the darkness for a moment and find some balance. So I made a quick stop at Keukenhof Gardens, and I’ll share a couple of shots from there before heading to Düsseldorf, Germany, the site of one of the most notorious serial killers in history, the Düsseldorf Vampire, Peter Kürten.#ProfilingEvil #MappingEvil #PeterKurten #VampireOfDusseldorf #Dusseldorf #Cologne #Amsterdam #Keukenhof #MoylandCastle #TrueCrime #SerialKiller #CrimeHistory #CriminalBehavior #Victimology #HauntedDusseldorf #JoshSimkins #GermanyTrueCrime #EuropeanTrueCrime #TravelTrueCrime #CrimeAndTravel #InvestigativeAnalysis #ColdCase #BehavioralAnalysis========================================CrimeCon Discount Code: https://crimecon.regfox.com/cctw3ntys1x (In Voucher/Coupon area, enter: PROFILINGEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Let’s discuss one of the most important and uncomfortable subjects in true crime, the path from coercive control to domestic violence homicide. Using the work of forensic criminologist Dr. Jane Monckton Smith, we’re breaking down the eight-stage pattern she identified after reviewing hundreds of domestic homicide cases. This is not about blaming victims. It’s about understanding offender behavior, escalation, and the warning signs people too often miss until it’s too late.We’ll start with two cases that are making headlines right now. In Ohio, Caleb Flynn has been charged in the shooting death of his wife, Ashley Flynn, and has pleaded not guilty. In Colorado, Barry Morphew has been indicted again in the death of his wife, Suzanne Morphew, has pleaded not guilty, and is awaiting trial. Both men are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court. What matters for this discussion is not pre-judging guilt but understanding why intimate partner homicide so often follows recognizable patterns of control, separation, stalking, fear, and escalation. We’ll also talk about the difference between immediate fear and chronic fear, why separation can be the most dangerous moment, why strangulation matters so much, and why friends and family need to stop asking, “Why didn’t she just leave?” and start asking, “What was he doing to make leaving so dangerous?” This video provides a practical and behavioral framework that can benefit, investigators, survivors, advocates, and families alike. #ProfilingEvil #DomesticViolence #CoerciveControl #JaneMoncktonSmith #AshleyFlynn #SuzanneMorphew #BarryMorphew #CalebFlynn #TrueCrime #IntimatePartnerViolence #Stalking #DVHomicide #CrimeAnalysis #VictimSafety #BehavioralAnalysis #DV #DomesticViolence #GIS #Mapping #CrimeMapping #esri========================================CrimeCon Discount Code: https://crimecon.regfox.com/cctw3ntys1x (In Voucher/Coupon area, enter: PROFILINGEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Newly unsealed search warrants are giving us a much clearer picture of how investigators built the case after Charlie Kirk was killed at Utah Valley University. We’re learning more about the early confusion over a second possible suspect, the digital evidence investigators tried to pull and the surveillance trail that places Tyler Robinson on the roof above the event. We’ll talk about that alleged letter, and the messages prosecutors say point to planning and admission. Will all this expose why the defense is focused so hard on whether the state can prove which weapon fired the fatal shot? #CharlieKirk #TylerRobinson #ErikaKirk #LanceTwiggs #UVU #UtahValleyUniversity #ProfilingEvil #TrueCrime #Crime #profiling #investigation #Forensics #Utah #murder #GIS #Esri #Maps #Mapping #CrimeMap========================================CrimeCon Discount Code: https://crimecon.regfox.com/cctw3ntys1x (In Voucher/Coupon area, enter: PROFILINGEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Five years after Summer Moon-Utah Wells vanished from her home in Hawkins County, Tennessee, this case still remains unsolved. In this episode, we’ll take a fresh look at what the Summer Wells investigation is really about, what has actually happened in the last year, and what the strongest theories look like when you peel back the rumors, focus on the evidence and evaluate search science, child behavior, and investigative protocols. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says the case remains active, the AMBER Alert remains active, and investigators are still working alongside the FBI and the Hawkins County Sheriff’s Office. They have also made clear that there is still no publicly identified evidence of abduction but they are making it clear that they have not ruled out any possibility. Let’s walk through four major questions. First, what the Summer Wells investigation is really about. Second, what the main theories look like after five years, including abduction, trafficking, murder, accident or even natural causes death. Third, what search and rescue research says about how a five-year-old child can move, hide, become quiet, get disoriented, and remain hard to find even in an aggressive search. Fourth, what we can reasonably learn, and not overclaim, from watching Don Wells and Candus Bly over time, including the pressure of losing their other children to the state, the later reporting that they signed over rights to their boys, and the way grief, public suspicion, and repeated scrutiny can harden a family into a defensive posture. #SummerWells #SummerMoonUtahWells #FindSummerWells #DonWells #CandusBly #RonnieLawson #HawkinsCountySheriff #TBI #TennesseeBureauOfInvestigation #FBI #NCMEC #MissingChild #BeechCreek #Rogersville #TrueCrime #ProfilingEvil #GIS #Mapping #CrimeMapping #Esri #SearchandRescue========================================CrimeCon Discount Code: https://crimecon.regfox.com/cctw3ntys1x (In Voucher/Coupon area, enter: PROFILINGEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
A stranger shows up at a Fairfield, California home, talks through a doorbell camera while demanding to know where a daughter is. He claims to be “Harry Dresden,” a fictional character and when he doesn’t get his way, he forces his way inside while a pregnant mother and young child are hiding in the house. Let’s discuss the Jason Thomas Nichols case from a criminal behavior and investigative perspective, looking at home selection, proximity, dress, language, escalation. We’ll separate what is known from what is still unknown, and we’ll talk about what cases like this can teach all of us about awareness, boundaries, and reducing our own risk of being victimized by someone like this. Public reporting says Nichols lived behind the family’s home which might make this seem less random, until you look at a map. #JasonNichols #Fairfield #HomeInvasion #RingCamera #TrueCrime #ProfilingEvil #Law&Crime #CriminalBehavior #SituationalAwareness #PersonalSafety #WolvesInSheepsClothing #HarryDresden #BurbankCourt #CrimeAnalysis #GIS #Esri #JasonThomasNichols========================================CrimeCon Discount Code: https://crimecon.regfox.com/cctw3ntys1x (In Voucher/Coupon area, enter: PROFILINGEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================💳 DONATE: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455S💵 PayPal: https://paypal.me/profilingevil🕵️BECOME A MEMBER: https://www.youtube.com/profilingevil/join🛒SHOP MERCH: https://www.profilingevil.com/profilingevilshop📖SHOP BOOKS: https://www.profilingevil.com/storeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
