First Watch: Daughter Kills Mother After Warnings & Cop Fights For His Innocence
Katie unpacks two cases that expose the cracks in America’s justice system. First, a heartbreaking story from Wisconsin: 29-year-old Lauren Spors, long battling severe mental illness, is accused of murdering her mother after years of pleas for help went unanswered. Her family’s decade-long struggle to get her treatment reveals how systemic failures can turn tragedy into horror. Then, Katie dives into the decades-old Georgia case of former police officer Michael Chapel, convicted of a 1993 murder he swears he didn’t commit. Now, new evidence and a shocking witness confession could finally set him free after thirty years behind bars.

Night Watch: Sandra Birchmore Part 1
In the same Massachusetts town rocked by the Karen Read case, 23-year-old Sandra Birchmore was found hanged in her Canton apartment in 2021. Sandra was pregnant and alone, and her death was quickly ruled a suicide, despite her family’s belief that she’d been groomed for years by Stoughton officer Matthew Farwell, who first “mentored” her in a police youth program when she was just 12. In this episode, Katie unpacks Sandra’s troubled childhood, her secret relationship with Farwell, and the threatening messages that preceded her death, revealing a darker picture of small-town policing: alleged statutory rape, buried complaints, and a department accused of closing ranks around one of its own. With Farwell in federal custody, Katie revisits the night she died, the evidence that never added up, and how her family, a podcast, and viral social posts dragged her “suicide” back into the spotlight… and onto the FBI’s radar.

First Watch: Parents Cover Up Son’s Murder & the Survivor Who Refused to Die
In rural Kentucky, 10-year-old Jayden Spicer was reported missing from his bed and his mother tearfully begged for his safe return, until two YouTubers, livestreaming their search in the woods, uncovered a bag of a little boy’s clothes hidden under plastic, forcing a shattering confession that Jayden was dead and buried miles away. Then, Katie covers a case in Nebraska, where 42-year-old Jesserae Beck slipped out one night to talk with her ex and never came home. The next morning police found only blood and hair in his house. Jesserae woke up in a strange home, beaten, barely able to move, as Christopher Collins waved a knife, opened a gas line, and talked about killing them both. With a neighborhood one spark away from disaster, SWAT had seconds to decide how to breach the house and whether this standoff would end in a rescue…or an explosion.

True Crime This Week: Infamous Inmates
This week on True Crime This Week, host Vanessa Richardson explores the twisted lives of two of history’s most notorious prisoners. First, the story of Charles Manson, the manipulative cult leader whose “Family” turned peace and love into terror. From failed musician to prophet of “Helter Skelter,” Manson’s descent into madness culminated in one of the most chilling murder sprees in American history. Then, meet Robert Stroud, the “Birdman of Alcatraz.” Though immortalized as a gentle animal lover, the real Stroud was a violent killer who spent more than 40 years in solitary confinement. His obsession with canaries and his unlikely fame reveal the strange line between redemption and myth. Two men. Two cells. One shared legacy of infamy.
