Crime House 24/7

James Anderson spent years entertaining children as a party clown, bringing laughter wherever he went. But behind the smiles and balloon animals was a man unraveling. In 2023, his wife, Victoria was dead, and their three-year-old son was covered in her blood. Two years after her murder, James slipped something from his pocket, swallowed it, and collapsed in the courtroom…ending his life before the judge could say a word. Then, Katie investigates a case in Michigan, where a McDonald’s manager named Jennifer Harris was finishing another morning shift when one of her employees, 27-year-old Afeni Muhammad, stormed back inside clutching a knife. Minutes later, Jennifer lay dead on the restaurant floor. With a heated Instagram video as evidence and a trial slated for later this month, Afeni could find herself behind bars for her crime.

This week on True Crime This Week, host Vanessa Richardson dives into two of history’s most daring and unforgettable heists.
First, journey to Nazi-occupied France, where art curator Rose Valland risked her life to secretly track thousands of stolen masterpieces — including Nicolas de Largillierre’s Portrait of a Woman, Half Length — and later helped the famed Monuments Men recover Europe’s looted treasures.
Then, ride back to the Wild West for the tale of Black Bart, the gentleman bandit who robbed 28 Wells Fargo stagecoaches without ever firing a shot — and left behind poetry instead of bloodshed.
From stolen art to outlaw artistry, these two crimes prove that not all heists are created equal — but every thief eventually faces the same reckoning.

He asked a victim if she recognized his voice. Years later, DNA answered: he was Grant Hardin, a cop, police chief, and convicted rapist. After pleading to murdering James Appleton in 2017 and being convicted of the 1997 rape of Amy Harrison, Hardin drew 80 years in prison. Yet in 2025 he turned a kitchen apron into a “vest,” a marker-dyed shirt into a “uniform,” and a soup-can lid into a “badge,” then sauntered out of a prison. This Halloween, Katie dives deep into the Ozarks that swallowed him for 14 days, describing the floodwaters and the massive search that pinned him just 1.5 miles from the prison fence. Now in a supermax prison and charged with second-degree escape, Hardin’s due in court next month.

This Halloween, Katie breaks down cases that may sound like nightmares, but are very much real horrors. In Edna, Texas, 16-year-old cheerleader Lizbeth Medina missed her town’s Christmas parade. But then she was found mysteriously stabbed to death at home. Investigators say a stranger, Rafael Romero, had been lurking for weeks. Katie explains the police investigation that caught the killer stalker. Then in Milwaukee, 19-year-old Sade Robinson went on a first date with 33-year-old Maxwell Anderson: a man she thought she knew. After a citywide search for Sade, Anderson was finally arrested. Katie breaks down why he was convicted of first-degree intentional homicide, mutilating a corpse, and arson.

Fifteen years. Twenty stab wounds. One official ruling that left her parents devastated. In 2011, 27-year-old Ellen Greenberg was found in her Philadelphia apartment with a head laceration and 20 stab wounds: ten to the back of her neck, others to her chest and abdomen, and a fatal wound to the heart. Police initially labeled it a suicide at the scene. But the medical examiner ruled it a homicide…before changing it back to suicide after a closed-door meeting. Since then, evidence debates, expert disputes, a controversial scene cleanup, and a recent settlement promising a new review have kept this case in the spotlight. Just weeks ago, a new report again listed Ellen’s death as suicide. Katie shares her thoughts about the day of Ellen’s death and what comes next.

From bottle service to burglary: Miami detectives say Angelina Esty targeted men leaving clubs and high-end hotels, going home with them, drugging them and allegedly walking out with thousands of dollars in luxury items. Then Katie investigates a tragedy in Reading, Pennsylvania, where investigators say Jose Luis Rodriguez confessed to killing Junior Cabrera-Colon and Geraldina Peguero Mancebo…and to drowning their 1-year-old, Jeyden after helping the couple secure housing. With cellphone pings, surveillance hits, and a recovered firearm, prosecutors are now considering capital charges.

It’s the crime that shattered Memphis. 25-year-old Brandon Isabelle didn’t want to be a father…so he murdered his ex-girlfriend, Danielle Hoyle, and their newborn daughter, Kennedy, just two days after her birth. Prosecutors say he shot Danielle five times, dumped her body in a ditch, and then threw baby Kennedy by her leg into the Mississippi River before heading to his other girlfriend’s house like nothing happened. In this Night Watch episode, host Katie details how investigators pieced together the crime through phone data, surveillance footage, and a chilling confession that his team tried to take back.

In Utah, 15-year-old Nick Vetecnik had already faced unimaginable loss after both of his parents passed away. Known as a “gentle giant,” Nick was finally starting to rebuild his life when his best friend, Rowdy Aguilar, betrayed him and took his life.

With 120 criminal counts now against them, the couple’s delusions have shaken their religious community.
