A Trial by Podcast
True crimeWhether it's a true crime case or one of history's most unsettling stories, we understand that the devil is in the details. In each episode, we comb through the facts, scrutinize the suspects, and deliver the disturbing stories that keep you on the edge of your seat. If you enjoy evidence-driven storytelling with a dash of gallows humor to make the disturbing (somewhat) tolerable, we suspect this is the pod for you. But this is A Trial by Podcast, so we'll let you be the judge.

- Ep. 083 | The Murder of Martha Moxley [Part 1] (01:06:31)
Story starts at 8:00 mark*****On October 30, 1975, 15-year-old Martha Moxley vanished after a night of teenage Mischief Night pranks in her wealthy Greenwich, Connecticut neighborhood, only to be found brutally beaten beneath a tree in her own yard the next morning. A golf club that was used to beat Moxley so brutally that the end of the club broke off - that golf club was later linked to the home of Rushton Skakel, the brother of Ethel Skakel Kennedy, AKA Robert Kennedy Sr.’s wife. Police learned that Rushton Skakel’s sons, 17-year-old Tommy and 15-year-old Michael, had pretty much been fighting over Martha Summer I Turned Pretty Style; and with that, they felt certain that one of the brothers had to be responsible. But of course, the money, power and privilege that comes with being a cousin of the Kennedy’s didn’t make their investigation easy.It would stretch on for decades, filled with conflicting alibis, changed stories, and shocking admissions, as police, journalists, and prosecutors tried to piece together what happened that night in Belle Haven. Decades later, after a sensational trial, a conviction and the overturning of that conviction, the question still lingers: did the Kennedy family’s privilege shield a murderer from justice?*****Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

- Ep. 082 | Dianna and Kevin Green (01:30:50)
In 1979, in Tustin, California, Dianna Green was brutally beaten and raped in her apartment while pregnant, leaving her in a coma and causing the death of her unborn child. Her husband, Kevin Green, told police the couple had an argument that night so Kevin left to get food and give Dianna some space - but when Dianna regained consciousness weeks later, she accused him of the attack. Despite his insistence that he was innocent, Kevin was convicted in 1979 of attempted murder and assault causing fetal death and sentenced to life in prison. More than sixteen years later, DNA testing on evidence from the crime scene revealed the real perpetrator was Gerald Parker, a serial killer known as “The Bedroom Basher,” who confessed to attacking Dianna and murdering several other women in Orange County around the same time. Kevin was fully exonerated and released in 1996, while Parker was sentenced to death. Dianna later publicly apologized to Kevin for the mistaken accusation that had cost him nearly two decades of his life.Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

- Ep. 081 | Chelsea Bruck: The Halloween Party Murder (01:41:24)
Story starts at 08:55Chelsea Bruck, a 22-year-old woman from Flat Rock, Michigan, disappeared in the early hours of October 26, 2014, after attending a large Halloween party near Newport with hundreds of attendees. Separated from her friends and without her phone, she was last seen wearing a Poison Ivy costume and asking strangers for a ride home. Six months later, her skeletal remains were discovered in a rural area in Ash Township, and the cause of death was determined to be blunt force trauma to the head. The investigation eventually identified Daniel Clay as the perpetrator after his DNA matched evidence found on Bruck’s discarded costume. He was convicted of felony murder.Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

- Ep. 080 | Bernd Brandes, Armin Meiwes & "Consensual" Cannibalism (01:46:05)
Armin Meiwes was a German computer technician whose 2001 crime shocked the world for its voluntary brutality. Living in the small town of Rotenburg, Meiwes posted an online ad seeking a willing participant to be killed and eaten — and astonishingly, a man named Bernd Jürgen Brandes responded. The two met, filmed their encounter, and Meiwes killed and partially consumed Brandes with his full consent. When police discovered the footage and evidence, Meiwes was arrested and initially convicted of manslaughter in 2004, receiving an eight-and-a-half-year sentence. However, after public outrage and a retrial in 2006, he was convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. The case raised complex legal and ethical questions about consent, morality, and the limits of human freedom, and remains one of the most disturbing examples of real-life cannibalism in modern history.Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

- Ep. 079 | Amanda Knox: Behavioral Analysis with Former FBI Profiler Julia Cowley (01:16:17)
Yes, in this one, we focus on Amanda Knox, hence the title. But that's because I was lucky enough to sit down with former FBI Profiler Julia Cowley to get her expert opinion on Amanda's behavior and the three-page written statement she made recanting her confession that pointed at Patrick Lumumba. Alongside three former colleagues, Julia hosts her own post called The Consult: Real FBI Profilers.

- Ep. 078 | The Affair of the Poisons (01:33:36)
The Affair of the Poisons (1677–1682) was a dark and scandalous episode in the court of King Louis XIV of France, where rumors of witchcraft, black masses, and poisonings gripped Parisian high society. Sparked by the arrest of fortune-teller La Voison, the investigation uncovered a vast criminal network of alchemists, midwives, and nobles accused of selling poisons and performing satanic rituals for love, wealth, or inheritance. Among the implicated were members of the aristocracy, including Madame de Montespan, the king’s powerful mistress, who was accused of using love potions and dark magic to maintain his affection. The scandal led to more than 300 arrests and dozens of executions, before Louis XIV, fearing damage to his court’s reputation, abruptly shut down the investigation—leaving behind an enduring legend of lust, greed, and occultism beneath the splendor of Versailles.Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

In 2012, 16-year-old Skylar Neese was brutally stabbed to death by her two best friends. She had been feeling left out of their trio, so she was excited when they invited her to hang out on the evening of July 6th. That night, Skylar snuck out through her bedroom window, but by the next morning her parents discovered her bed empty.

- Ep. 064 | The Murder of Robert Wone [Part 2] (01:51:34)
My interview with Smile Talk with JacobOn the night of August 2, 2006, 32-year-old attorney Robert Wone was found fatally stabbed in the guest room of a friend’s home in Washington, D.C., under circumstances that remain deeply mysterious. Wone had been staying overnight at the home of college friend Joseph Price, who lived there with his partner Victor Zaborsky and their housemate Dylan Ward. The three men claimed an unknown intruder broke in, stabbed Robert, and fled—yet there were no signs of forced entry, and their behavior after the crime raised suspicions. An autopsy revealed precise knife wounds and signs that Robert may have been incapacitated before his death, possibly through chemical restraint, though toxicology was inconclusive. The case garnered national attention due to its eerie details, the unusual domestic arrangement in the house, and the fact that the three men were later charged—not with murder, but with obstruction of justice and conspiracy. They were ultimately acquitted, and to this day, no one has been held criminally responsible for Robert Wone’s death.Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

- Ep. 062 | The Murder of Geetha Angara (01:14:12)
Geetha Angara, a 43-year-old senior chemist at the Passaic Valley Water Commission in Totowa, New Jersey, vanished on the morning of February 8, 2005, while performing routine water-sample calibrations. Her coworkers discovered an access panel ajar above a water tank, along with broken glass from her beaker, later found along with her radio and clipboard underwater. Her body was recovered on February 9 in icy water. The autopsy revealed she was alive when she entered the tank, with bruises on her neck, waist, and elbows—signs of a possible struggle—leading investigators to classify her death a homicide. Given the plant’s tightly controlled access and no external intruders, suspicion fell on her coworkers; though three were identified as potential suspects, no charges were ever filed and the case went cold. An alternative theory, advanced by a Scottish pathologist, noted that cold-water drowning can mimic strangulation injuries, and some investigators later proposed that she may have tragically slipped through the panel during an accidental sample-collection procedure—though her family strongly disputes that scenario.Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Grace Emmie Rose Millane, a 22-year-old British tourist on a gap‑year trip in New Zealand, disappeared on the evening of December 1, 2018, after she left a Tinder date in Auckland—her body was discovered in a suitcase a day later in the Waitākere Ranges The man she met, Jesse Shane Kempson (26 at the time), was arrested on December 8 and later convicted in November 2019 of murdering her by strangulation; he claimed it was consensual “rough sex” that accidentally caused her death—a defense widely condemned as victim-blaming.Kempson received life imprisonment with a minimum of 17 years before parole, his appeal was dismissed in December 2020, and the case continues to spark discussion around violence against women and the problematic “rough sex” defense.Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.
