    Luka Magnotta: The Butcher of Montreal
    Mar 31 2026
    Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Luka Magnotta, known as the Butcher of Montreal. In the spring of 2012, a shocking video showing the murder of a university student named Jun Lin began circulating across the internet, setting off a chain of events that would horrify an entire nation. What investigators uncovered was a killer unlike any other: a deeply troubled, fame-obsessed man whose lifelong hunger for notoriety would ultimately become both his motive and his undoing. Candice examines how a turbulent childhood, a history of severe mental illness, and an obsessive need to be seen at any cost culminated in one of the most disturbing crimes in Canadian history.

  • Ted Bundy: Part 2

    Ted Bundy: Part 2
    Mar 24 2026
    In the second half of this two-part episode, retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong picks up where the nightmare left off. After escaping custody twice, Ted Bundy fled to Tallahassee, Florida, where his violence escalated to its most savage and frenzied, including a brutal late-night attack on the Chi Omega sorority house left two young women dead and three others savagely beaten, and weeks later, twelve-year-old Kimberly Leach became his youngest known victim. But Bundy's arrogance proved to be his final undoing, and when Florida authorities closed in, there would be no more escapes. Candice examines the trials that followed. They were spectacles unlike anything the American justice system had ever seen, the first to be televised nationally, presided over by a defendant who fired his attorneys, cross-examined witnesses, and proposed marriage on the stand, convinced to the end that his charm could beat the evidence. It couldn't. On January 24, 1989, after years of manipulation, confessions and last-minute attempts to trade victim locations for more time, Ted Bundy was executed in the electric chair at Florida State Prison-- finally, irrevocably stopped by the system he had spent his entire adult life outrunning.

  • Ted Bundy: Part 1

    Ted Bundy: Part 1
    Mar 17 2026
    In the first half of this two-part episode, retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Ted Bundy, one of the most notorious serial killers in American history. In the early 1970s, young women began vanishing from college campuses and sunlit streets across the Pacific Northwest. When the truth finally came to light, it revealed a killer unlike any other: a handsome, charming law student who weaponized trust itself, approaching his victims in broad daylight with a smile and a request for help. By the time investigators across multiple states connected the disappearances, the body count stretched from Washington to Utah to Colorado and beyond. Candice examines how a childhood built on secrets and identity deception, a devastating romantic rejection, and years of escalating paraphilic fantasy converged to create one of history's most organized and methodical predators, and how for Bundy, getting caught was never the end of anything — it was just the beginning.

    Nick Reiner - The Murders of Rob & Michelle Reiner: A Conversation with Josh Ritter
    Mar 10 2026
    Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the shocking murders of legendary Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michelle Singer Reiner. Candice walks through what investigators say happened during the final hours before the couple were found stabbed to death inside their Brentwood home, and why their own son, Nick Reiner, quickly became the prime suspect in the case. She breaks down the timeline of the killings, Nick’s movements after the crime, and the troubling history of addiction and severe mental health struggles that may play a central role in the investigation. Then, Candice is joined by former Los Angeles prosecutor and legal analyst Josh Ritter, who explains the legal process now unfolding, from Nick Reiner’s arraignment to the possibility of an insanity defense and whether prosecutors may seek the death penalty. Together they explore how courts evaluate competency, the difference between mental illness and legal insanity, and what evidence could ultimately determine whether this case ends in prison, a psychiatric institution, or a lengthy jury trial.

  • Mary Ann Cotton: Britain's First Female Serial Killer

    Mary Ann Cotton: Britain's First Female Serial Killer
    Mar 3 2026
    Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the disturbing case of Mary Ann Cotton, the Victorian-era poisoner who used arsenic to systematically eliminate husbands, stepchildren, and even her own children across nearly two decades in Northeast England. Behind the facade of a grieving widow was a calculating killer who collected insurance payouts and cleared the path to her next financial and romantic opportunity with each death. Candice digs into what drove Mary Ann to view her own families as disposable and how her modus operandi and the time period allowed her to stay under the radar for so long -- killing at least 21 people in the process.

  • The Watts Family Murders

    The Watts Family Murders
    Feb 17 2026
    Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the chilling case of Chris Watts, the seemingly devoted husband and father who killed his pregnant wife, Shanann, and their two young daughters in 2018. Beneath the picture-perfect surface of their Colorado home was a troubling combination of financial pressure, marital discord, and a secret affair. And as Chris began envisioning a future unburdened by responsibility, emotional detachment and his own self-interest gave way to an act of irreversible violence. Candice explores the mindset of a family annihilator, the calculated calm Chris maintained as suspicion mounted, and how a desire for reinvention led to the destruction of his entire family.
