  • Lori Vallow Trial Day 1: Lori Cries in Court, Then Gets Hammered by the State
    Lori Vallow is back in court this time in Arizona, and she’s doing the unthinkable: representing herself in a murder conspiracy trial. Prosecutor Treena Kay opened with a bombshell text about Nephi, possession, and a premeditated plan to kill. Lori shook her head, rolled her eyes, flipped her legal pad, and then took to the podium to argue her own case.

    In this episode, Ashleigh Banfield breaks down the first day of trial.

  • Did She Kill Him? The Karen Read Retrial Begins Ft. Bob Motta Defense Diaries
    Karen Read is once again facing a Massachusetts jury, accused of killing her Boston police officer boyfriend, John O’Keefe, by allegedly backing over him with her SUV after a night of drinking. But from the very beginning, this case hasn’t followed the usual script.

  • Adolescence: The Netflix Series Haunting Every Parent
    A 13-year-old boy. A murdered classmate. A justice system that doesn’t blink. Netflix’s "Adolescence" has shocked viewers with its raw, unflinching look at how far prosecutors will go, and how fast a child can become a criminal in the eyes of the law.

    In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh sits down with clinical psychologist and best-selling author Dr. John Duffy, who’s spent three decades inside the minds of teenagers... and inside the homes where things go quietly wrong. Together, they unpack the most disturbing moments from the series, and Dr. Duffy reveals the hidden warning signs, and why we so often miss the chance to save our boys before it’s too late.
