True Crime Today | Daily True Crime News & Interviews

Three cases. Three distinct legal landscapes. And one conversation that gets to the procedural questions that matter most.
Rex Heuermann is reportedly expected to plead guilty on April 8 in the Gilgo Beach killings — a plea that has not yet been entered and could still fall apart. If it holds, it would resolve charges connected to seven victims while closing the courtroom before a trial — no testimony under oath, no cross-examination, no public evidentiary record of the kind full proceedings create. Four families tied to uncharged deaths would not be reached by that expected plea.
The Nancy Guthrie abduction is being investigated by a department with a documented institutional crisis. Dr. Richard Carmona — a former U.S. Surgeon General and former Pima County sheriff — went on record stating the crime scene was corrupted, calling it an irreversible error. The deputies' union passed a unanimous no-confidence vote. The Board of Supervisors invoked a rare law requiring the sheriff to submit reports under oath. More than 18,000 tips have been received with no named suspect. Ransom notes demanding cryptocurrency payment arrived and went past their deadlines. The legal integrity of any eventual case will have to be established within this context.
Joseph Duggar faces felony charges in Florida — accused of molesting a then-9-year-old girl during a 2020 family vacation, incidents he allegedly admitted to when confronted by the victim's father and again to law enforcement detectives. He and Kendra face separate Arkansas misdemeanor counts for child endangerment and false imprisonment. Jim Bob Duggar's documented decision to handle Josh's conduct without law enforcement contact raises accountability questions that the existing charges do not address.
Today on True Crime Today, retired FBI Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program Chief Robin Dreeke joins me to go through listener questions on all three cases — examining the legal record, the procedural stakes, and what the documented evidence means for the people still waiting on answers.

By 2014, Nineteen Kids and Counting was TLC's highest-rated program. The Duggar family had become the most famous face of conservative Christian family life in America — wholesome, modest, joyful, and profitable.
Their own children tell a different story.
In Part 2 of this five-part series from Hidden Killers and True Crime Today, Tony Brueski examines the Duggar brand — the financial control structure Derick Dillard has publicly alleged gave Jim Bob unilateral control over his adult children's contracts and payments, the compound Jill Duggar describes needing permission to enter as a married adult, and the network timeline that saw publicly available concerns about this family documented in 2007 while TLC continued broadcasting until 2015.
When the story broke, TLC canceled — and immediately created a spinoff. That spinoff ran eleven more seasons and ended only with Josh Duggar's federal arrest.
Two cancellations. Two network statements. One unbroken revenue stream.
The money generated by a decade of broadcasting this family has never been publicly accounted for. Nobody made these children sign anything. The cameras just made it profitable for someone else.
This is Part 2 of 5.

The legal record surrounding the Duggar family has expanded significantly, and it raises accountability questions that the existing charges do not fully resolve.
Josh Duggar is serving a federal sentence of twelve and a half years for possession of child sexual abuse material. Joseph Duggar has now been arrested and faces felony charges in Florida — accused of molesting a then-9-year-old girl during a 2020 family vacation, incidents he allegedly admitted to when confronted by the victim's father and then confirmed to Tontitown detectives. He and his wife Kendra have also been separately charged in Arkansas with four counts each of child endangerment and false imprisonment in the second degree — charges that reportedly stem from a subsequent investigation of their home, including the reported discovery of exterior locks on their children's bedroom doors. Both have April court dates in Arkansas. Joseph remains in custody awaiting extradition to Florida.
The question that sits at the center of all of this, legally, is Jim Bob Duggar. The documented record shows he was aware of Josh's conduct toward family members years before any law enforcement involvement and chose to manage it internally. The legal question of what obligations exist when a parent has that knowledge — and what accountability follows from the choices that were made — remains largely unresolved in the public record.
Today on True Crime Today, retired FBI Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program Chief Robin Dreeke joins me to work through listener questions on the legal and procedural dimensions. We're examining what the documented admissions mean for Joseph's Florida case. We're looking at what the Arkansas child endangerment and false imprisonment charges specifically allege. We're asking about the four children — and what legal options exist when both parents in a household face charges of this nature. And we're examining whether the documented pattern of internal handling within this family creates any basis for legal accountability beyond the individuals directly charged.
These are consequential legal questions. We're treating them that way.

Indiana's Attorney General just responded to Richard Allen's appeal in the Delphi murders case — and they want the court to let a 130-year conviction stand without a second look.
Richard Allen was convicted in the 2017 killings of 13-year-old Abby Williams and 14-year-old Libby German near the Monon High Bridge trail in Delphi, Indiana. He's been appealing that conviction, and the State just filed their formal rebuttal.
Their argument: everything was done right, the evidence was overwhelming, and even the rulings that may have gone wrong were harmless enough not to matter.
Here's what caught our attention. The defense's brief documents that Allen, during his confessions, told his prison psychiatrist that he shot the girls. Abby and Libby were not shot. The State's response is 94 pages long. It never once addresses that detail.
In this episode, we break down the three pillars of the State's rebuttal — the search warrant, the confessions, and the excluded evidence — and we examine the gaps. The eyewitness sketch that the woman who made it called perfect, depicting someone who looked nothing like Allen, that the jury never saw. The confession from a man who was documented as gravely disabled and who got the cause of death wrong. The van that the State says proves the confession was real — and the footage and data suggesting the timeline may not hold up.
If you've been following this case, this episode connects the dots on where the appeal stands. If you're new to Delphi, this is a clear-eyed breakdown of why serious questions remain.

Every true crime story has a before. In the Lindsay Clancy case, the before is everything.
Lindsay Clancy was a labor and delivery nurse at Massachusetts General Hospital — a woman who worked the room where lives begin and who dedicated her professional life to supporting mothers through their most vulnerable moments. When she became a mother herself, those professional instincts kicked in immediately. She recognized her own symptoms. She sought help almost immediately after each birth. She described exactly what she was experiencing using clinical language, because she had it.
She was prescribed medication. It allegedly made things worse. She went back. More medications were added. She went back again. She admitted herself to hospital programs. She kept journals. Her husband was sounding alarms to friends. Her family drove in from out of state to help with the children.
And according to a civil malpractice lawsuit she filed in January 2026, through all of it — across more than two years and three pregnancies — no one ever correctly identified the underlying condition that may have been driving everything.
Part 2 of our five-part Lindsay Clancy series covers the years before January 24th, 2023. The woman, the mother, the patient, and the pattern of deterioration that her family watched happen while the system allegedly missed it entirely.
