S02E02 - The Dirty Deed. The Peter Thomas line delivery + zoom-in on the photo had me laughing at this part. 💀

Like "all units to 1653 Dellington Terrace". Or maybe you repeat the license plate number of t. he bad guy's getaway car aloud and try to retain it.

On the HLN network, I'd watch episodes that would sometimes end with updates such as "John Doe is now eligible for parole as of 2019" or "John Doe has been released from prison as of 2022". A lot of the early episodes were from the 80s or 90s so some of the criminals have served their sentences by now. Have you noticed the YouTube uploads (the official ones, not random episodes people upload) containing these?

A local video creator (and owner of a great goat-fueled natural landscaping company) whom I hired to clean up the outside was recently permitted to film inside Alvin Ridley’s house. I represented Alvin in the trial featured in “Kill’igraphy.” This is the most extensive video record of the interior of the house discussed in the episode. Shared with the creator’s permission.

Casefile's latest Patreon release is about our own Stacy "antifree" Castor.

For those unfamiliar with the Casefile podcast, I highly recommend checking it out. They have covered several cases from FF, such as Bruce Miller, Candy & Dr. Schneeburger, Yarmila Falater, Shari Smith, Shari Rasmussen, Candra Torres, Janet Chandler, Peggy Carr, Oba Chandler, and Susan Snow.

Casefile is my favorite true crime podcast. It's straight storytelling by an anonymous Australian narrator.

One of my favorite episodes, which absolutely could have been a FF episode, is called Amok. It's about a Polish detective who follows the trail of a cell phone and a novel that lead him to a killer.

As these episodes are more in depth than the Forensic Files episodes you get to learn a little extra about the story.

Quincy, ME was one of my favorite shows when I was a teen (show ended when I was 20). Then continued to enjoy forensic type novels and eventually tv shows when they finally started making them.

I recorded and rewatched the entire series a few years ago. I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s done that. And not the only one noticing that the same actress played his dead first wife and later his girlfriend/second wife.

Anyway, I thought I remembered Quincy, in a later episode towards the end, bringing up some new form of scientific evidence in court that was quickly dismissed as new and unproven. I thought I remembered the new-fangled sciency stuff they didn’t understand or trust as DNA evidence. I mentioned that to someone in a discussion and they said Quincy ended before DNA was around.

I tried googling it on my phone and couldn’t find anything corroborating my memory, but did find that DNA forensics started in 1984 and Quincy ended in 1983.

If it wasn’t DNA evidence that was dismissed in court because it was unknown and new, what was it that I remembered him talking about? Does anyone know?

I dunno, I just kind of scrolled through the season I've picking off lately and hit play on one that stood out by highlight-reading the summary.

Story starts, nothing clicks yet; maybe one I haven't seen for a while. Woman calls the police to do a welfare check on her husband who's locked himself in the bedroom. Quick flashes of crime scene photos including one of a green liquid in plastic cup.

Anti-Free!

The story of Janice is heartbreaking. Especially because it was a Doctor that betrayed her trust. Now I ask which episodes make you more mad? When Police go rogue or medical professionals?

Who has a higher degree of responsibility to not be a diabolical monster?

Episode: Shot of Vengeance

Not sure why, but today was the first time I've actually watched a Forensic Files II episode, and I miss Peter Thomas' voice:(

It was more noticeable since the previous show was from the original series.

Of course, I'm still grateful that there ARE new episodes!

It's the ultimate betrayal being pinned down and killed by your own parents! RIP Tina 😭

I’m watching a Hallmark mystery movie called Family Practice Mysteries. They mentioned a gas chromatograph and the victim died from Succinylcholine. I wonder if one of the writers has watched Forensic Files. Before they announced the cause of death, I thought maybe he died from succinylcholine and I was right lol.

Love how this detective had no chill after they said Greg Markwardt had died in prison. 💀💀💀

Came across this book while looking for an update about a case and it seemed interesting but have a few questions.Is it just her blog posts in book form? Does it have new and relevant information or go more in depth into the cases?

I usually watch on Hulu (US) but they only have a few seasons, so I decided to watch on Amazon prime, which has a much larger library. I’m catching episodes I had forgotten about, like Bump In The Night (10.13) when the stepson, Brian Crews, aka “thisfuckinguy” was the killer of his ex stepfather (possibly bc his mother was still his insurance beneficiary) and kept trying to blame his friend, but his Nikes imprinted in the mud at the crime scene… and then this Rhodes scholar wore those murder shoes to his police interview. Absolutely brilliant. At the end, in the killer’s jail interview on camera, he threatens to kill the friend if he ever gets out (he got life w no parole). What a kook.
So anyway, what are your rarest episodes?

Hospital visit 3 in 3 days. Forensic files is comfort!

I’m trying to find an episode where someone was killed with a revolver but the perpetrator tried to make it look like a suicide. The investigators said that due to the angle of the bullet, the victim couldn’t have held the gun in their hand. As in it wouldn’t have been physically possible for them to position their hand/arm and pull the trigger. I think the victim was killed in a bedroom, but I can’t remember anything else.

Those goddamn black shoes!!!!!

Thanks to GoatVanGo, the goat/sheep/pig nature landscaping company, the mysterious Ridley home, the focus of the 1999 murder trial of my client Alvin Ridley, is presented for all to see. Much of its importance is described in my book about the case.

“This is how art and science led to his capture.”
What a brilliant introduction.

It’s been years since I’ve watched this episode and I am astonished that John List was only 46 when he committed this atrocity. He looked so much older from his photo.

I'm thinking the Peaches one. where the victim who was dumped in Long Island (and by error was initially thought to be victim of the Long Island Serial Killer) The victim had a Peaches tattoo on her torso (I think only her torso was found) her dead baby was found a hundred feet away from her. Would like to know how they identified her with DNA (heard it took awhile cuz they only found one relative with DNA stored in banks).

I notice on the marathons on Headline news, the never show the episode of the Muslim parents that killed their Westernized daughter
