    On August 24, 2021, 25-year-old Illinois State University graduate student Jelani Day was last seen on campus. Eleven days later, his body was recovered from the Illinois River, sixty miles away from where his concealed car was found without license plates or keys. While a multi-agency task force ultimately ruled his cause of death as undetermined drowning, his family has fought tirelessly from day one to challenge that finding and uncover what happened during his final hours.

    While millions of people across the globe spent the late 1980s and 1990s fitting falling blocks together in Tetris, one of the key figures behind its rise was living a very different reality. In September 1998, Vladimir Pokhilko, his wife Elena, and their 12-year-old son Peter were found dead inside their Palo Alto home in what officials officially ruled a brutal murder-suicide. But the crime scene investigators who walked into that Palo Alto house have spent over twenty years insisting the physical evidence didn't add up.

    On the night of June 9, 1979, thirty-five people boarded the Ghost Train at Sydney’s historic Luna Park for a routine two-and-a-half-minute ride into the dark. Seven of them never came out. While authorities initially blamed a tragic electrical accident or a discarded cigarette, decades of suspicion, ignored fire safety warnings, and explosive claims from former police have pointed toward arson and a massive cover-up.

    In January 1984, a brutal intruder armed with a hammer struck four separate households across Denver in a twelve-day span. The attacks left three adults severely injured and four people dead, including a seven-year-old girl, while a three-year-old survivor was left to be found in a scene investigators would never forget. With no apparent connection between the victims and virtually no physical leads, the cases turned ice-cold for over three decades.

    In March 1950, 25-year-old Timothy Evans was executed for a brutal crime inside his London home. The prosecution's star witness was his soft-spoken downstairs neighbor—a former police constable named John Christie, whose quiet authority seemed above suspicion. But three years later, a terrifying discovery hidden behind the wallpaper at 10 Rillington Place forced the nation to confront a horrific possibility.

    On January 16, 2018, Brittany Smith shot and killed 38-year-old Todd Smith inside her Stevenson, Alabama home. What followed was a complex legal battle that brought national attention to the intersection of sexual violence and "Stand Your Ground" laws. Though a sexual assault exam documented 33 injuries and Brittany had left a frantic note warning a gas station clerk hours before the shooting, a judge denied her immunity, leading to a controversial guilty plea and a split sentence without ever reaching a jury.

In this episode of True Crimecast, Jamie and John trace Luna’s electronic trail, examine the controversial FBI theories, and break down the newly unsealed 2025 autopsy.

    Notas del episodio

    Amber Kaset is a criminal defense investigator and mitigation specialist with more than 20 years of experience and over 1,000 cases. She spent seven years as an investigator with the Public Defender's Office in Nashville before founding AK Investigations in 2010. Today she leads a team of investigators and mitigation specialists working with defense attorneys nationwide on serious felonies, drug cases, complex federal cases, wrongful convictions, death penalty cases, and large civil matters.
    https://www.akinvestigations.com/

    True crime usually follows the investigation that leads to an arrest. But what happens when the defense starts investigating the case all over again? Amber joins True Crimecast to take listeners inside the defense investigation: retracing police work, interviewing witnesses, finding evidence that may have been missed, and, in death penalty cases, investigating a client's life generations back. She also talks about wrongful convictions, mitigation, and what more than two decades on the defense side have taught her about the people we label "bad guys" and about recognizing the humanity of everyone a case touches, victims included, in a system that falls hardest on people who are poor, people of color, and people the other systems failed first.

    Amber consults with public defender leadership on how their offices investigate cases and how their teams work together, and she has taught investigations to innocence projects, law schools, university programs, and at legal conferences. She is also the creator of the Investigative Expert Method, an online training program for people who want to become criminal defense investigators and those already doing the work in private practice and in public defense.
