On September 2nd, 2010, 24 year-old Michelle O’Connell broke up with her boyfriend, St. Johns County Sheriff's Deputy, Jeremy Banks. Minutes later, she was dead.

The St. Johns Sheriff’'s Office quickly ruled the case a suicide, without examining crucial forensic evidence or interviewing any key witnesses. Other official investigations failed to gain traction.

Her boyfriend, Deputy Jeremy Banks was never charged and is still working as a St. Johns County Sheriff'’s Deputy.

Years later, an amateur sleuth named Eli Washtock winds up murdered after investigating Michelle O’Connell’s death. What did he find out?

Criminal Conduct is an investigative true crime podcast series hosted by John Taylor and Javier Leiva. The hosts retrace the footsteps of Eli Washtock, the slain sleuth; picking up the investigation where he left off.

'Criminal Conduct' will be released in the spring of 2020. Subscribe now on all podcast platforms.

With a cold, hard dose of reality, Jules has finally realised that she is in danger. She knows that she needs to get out, fast, from this situation that’s dodgy in more ways than one. She needs to get the car back from Truman. He has taken it, but where? Finally, he returns to the hotel and since he now knows any opportunity to further scam her is impossible, he severs connection from her, and he does it violently.

Truman continues to attempt to extricate money from Jules. He takes her to Liverpool, and tells her about an apartment he is buying, and suggests they could get a mortgage together.

The attempts to squeeze money out of her get more and more desperate, and Truman disappears with the rental car that is under Jules’s name. Finally, she begins to see through the fog… has she been falling for a scam all along?

On the third day of her trip, Jules agrees to help Truman by loaning him some cash so he can retrieve his jewellery from a pawn shop. Once he has the cash, he gets excited and takes his friends out on the town. Truman starts to let his guard down, and the cracks begin to show. Is Truman even his real name? Did he lie about his age?

Jules begins to grapple with the reality she is now beginning to bear witness to, and starts to wonder whether she has been making wise decisions…

Jules boards a flight to Manchester, UK. She meets the man who has crafted a complex identity to hook her into a romantic fantasy, and he immediately pulls her into the first phases of his plans to swindle her out of her money. She is blinded by optimism, and misses the red flags of his blatant manipulation and coercion. A rental car, a pawn shop, and a grand plan for their future together.

The future she is imagining is looking bright. They share the same dreams, values and hopes for their lives together, and Truman is saying all the right things. It’s helpful that she bares her soul in a “getting to know you” questionnaire, which has handed him ammunition to be able to tug on her heartstrings in just the right way. But, is she just another Little Red Riding Hood being led astray by a cunning wolf?

The time for her to fly to Manchester to meet him is getting closer, and her excitement is reaching a fever pitch…

Fake online profiles are easy to set up, but perhaps are less easy to spot. After a string of disappointing dating disasters, Jules is becoming entangled in the web of lies that Truman is spinning. She is starry eyed and excited, and so far unable to see the red flags that have begun to show themselves.
