The G-Man and the Psychic
In the summer of 1998, FBI agent Bob Hilland reluctantly picked up the phone to call the famous psychic John Edward. Bob didn’t expect much from the call, but he was working on an unsolvable cold case and had nowhere else to turn.What Bob never imagined was that the call would lead to a shattering of all his preconceived notions, a huge break in the cold case, and an unlikely crime-solving partnership that spanned twenty-five years.As Bob and John took on more cases together, they slowly learned how to rely on each other and trust their skills, ultimately finding not only justice for the crimes they solved, but resolution and healing in their own lives.Centering on the investigation of the gruesome John Smith murders that rocked the nation, Chasing Evil is a heart-stopping story of murder, justice, and finding help in unexpected places. My guest today is G-Man, Robert Hilland.NOTE: Video version is available on YOUTUBE at: https://youtu.be/xFSA1LkbRvc

Recipe for Murder!
On July 29th, 2023, in Leongatha, a smalltown in rural Victoria, Australia, family and friends of local woman Erin Patterson sit down for Saturday lunch. On the menu, Beef Wellington. The next day, four of the guests are hospitalized. Doctors suspect death- cap mushroom poisoning. Within a week, three of them will be dead. On November 2nd of that same year, Erin Patterson is arrested and charged with three counts of murder and five of attempted murder. Held in custody at Dame Phyllis Frost women's prison until her trial began in April 2025, the case captured media attention around the world. Did Patterson deliberately poison her estranged husband's parents, aunt and uncle? Was the lunch a recipe for murder? Patterson insisted no. She was innocent of any crime. Not guilty, she declared to the court. A jury of her peers have now decided the answer to those two questions. So how did a respected country woman come to find her relationships and behavior dissected by police and prosecutors? Bestselling author, investigative journalist and former detective, Duncan McNab has sifted through the evidence, spoken to witnesses and attended the nine-week trial. And joins me now via ZOOM from "Down Under!"

Who Killed Sandra Birchmore?
On February 4, 2021, 23-year-old Sandra Birchmore was found dead in her Canton, Massachusetts apartment. Her death was initially ruled as a suicide by asphyxia. Federal authorities later determined that her death was a homicide, with local police officer, Michael Farwell, alleged to have killed her. Birchmore's murder has drawn parallels to the death of John O’Keefe, another high-profile investigation in Norfolk County. Both cases involve allegations of law enforcement misconduct and have raised questions about the integrity of local authorities.My guest today is Kevin Lenihan of YELLOW COTTAGE TALES and frequent guest on COURT TV.

The Edge of Innocence
Florence Bennet is found dead in a bathtub of scalding water. Her husband, Casper, claims that he found her like that, but his burned hands tell a different story.Or so the police and almost the entire population of Lorain believe.And as the Bennetts’ marriage with its secrets of alcohol, affairs and abuse is laid bare in the courtroom, it looks like the only possible verdict is murder.Bennett’s sensational trial more than fifty years ago pitted an aggressive, mercurial county prosecutor against a defense team that included Ray Miraldi. In the tradition of John Grisham and Scott Turow, The Edge of Innocence, written by Ray Miraldi’s son, David, recreates the tension and excitement of this true courtroom battle, and also reveals the uncertain edge that often divides guilt from innocence.And there is more than one twist in the case that was revealed long after the case was settled!

THROUGH THE LENS OF A MONSTER
On death row for 42 years at San Quentin, artist and inmate William Noguera formed an unlikely bond with the notorious serial killer Joseph Naso. Over years of disturbing conversations—and at great personal risk—Noguera gained his trust. What he revealed was far worse than anyone imagined.Behind prison walls, Naso described his brutal crimes in chilling detail, disclosing evidence that had eluded investigators for decades and exposing the darkness that drove him. Now, for the first time, Noguera lays bare in his book, Through the Lens of a Monster, those confessions and the psychological games behind them—offering long-overdue answers for grieving families and fresh leads in cases gone cold.Through the Lens of a Monster is both a window into the twisted mind of a predator and a haunting memoir of a man seeking redemption for his own violent past. My guest today on Murder Most Foul is William Noguera.
