    Dec 11 2024

    The Murder Sheet sat down with former Federal Bureau of Investigation special agent Jerri Williams. Jerri is known for her podcast, FBI Retired Case File Review, where she goes over fascinating high profile investigations and equally-intriguing lesser known cases with the FBI agents who investigated them all. Jerri also served as a FBI special agent for 26 years. She spoke to us about what it is really like to investigate cases for the FBI.

  • Anatomy of a Trial: Motions in Limine and Motions to Suppress with Attorney and Author Alexander Silvert
    Dec 10 2024

    We talk about a criminal trial as if it was a single event but of course that’s not entirely true. A trial is made up of multiple parts starting with jury selection and going all the way to the delivery of a verdict. Not all of these stages of a trial always get attention but each of them can be tremendously important. In fact, some attorneys claim that a trial can be won or lost in the jury selection process — and that, of course, happens before any case is made to that jury. That is why we have decided to launch a new occasional series we are calling Anatomy of A Trial. In each segment, we will talk to an experienced trial lawyer who will go in depth with us about a particular piece of a trial.

    Our expert today is Alexander Silvert. We will be talking with Alexander about motions in limine and motions to suppress. What's the difference between these filings, and how should attorneys approach these motions?

    Check out Alexander's terrific book on Amazon.

  • The Murder of Angela Craig: The Case Against James Craig So Far
    Dec 5 2024

    On March 18, 2023, Angela Craig died in a hospital after a mysterious illness. The 43-year-old Aurora, Colorado woman left behind six children and a husband, James.

    Those close to the Craigs were immediately suspicious, and made those concerns known to medical personnel and law enforcement. James Craig was a dentist with a history of personal problems. His colleagues suspected him of doing the unthinkable: poisoning Angela. And detectives uncovered a trove of evidence as they dug into his dealings. In this episode, we will focus on the probable cause affidavit for Craig's arrest, along with a few recent developments.
