In this episode, seasoned investigator Jerry Lyons, known for his work on the Casey Anthony case, joins forces with experts Eric Zelaya and Dr. Craig Wetterer to dive deep into the Son of Sam law—a legal doctrine that prevents criminals from profiting off the publicity of their crimes. The discussion unpacks the reasons behind the public's fascination with notorious criminal cases and examines how psychological traps like attribution bias, confirmation bias, and the need for control distort our perception of justice. The team also delves into the complexities of double jeopardy, the disturbing obsession with true crime, and the public's fixation on cases like that of Gypsy Rose Blanchard. Don't miss this thought-provoking analysis of the darker side of our collective obsession with the most infamous crimes.
