Pieper Lewis made headlines in November 2022 when she cut off her GPS tracker and fled the Fresh Start Women's Facility in Des Moines, Iowa. Pieper was arrested at the age of 15 for stabbing 37-year-old Zachary Brooks after he allegedly sexually assaulted her multiple times. At the time, Pieper was a runaway and sex trafficking victim. She confessed to killing Zachary and was sentenced to 5 years supervised probation, 1,200 hours of community service, and was ordered to pay $150,000 in restitution to his family. Pieper has pleaded not guilty to the escape charge.

Dr. Phil episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C69Hs8BCbBg
This week, we cover part 2 of the not so perfect crime. The police have continued their investigation into the Easter family. They secured two search warrants, one for Kent's office and one for the Easter home. Unfortunately for them, it is quite challenging to investigate married lawyers. They had to be careful about attorney-client privilege AND spousal privilege.
Meanwhile, the cops discovered Jill had been having an affair with a firefighter who she called her, "sex ninja." Listen now for the full story!

Kelli Peters was a volunteer director for the after school program at Plaza Vista School in Irvine, California. Kelli had chosen Irvine for her family because it was so safe. One day while working at the school, a 911 call came in to the police station reporting a dangerous driver in the Plaza Vista parking lot. The caller identified the driver as Kelli. Upon further investigation, it turned out Kelli was already inside the school at the time of the call. When the cop called to the scene searched her car, he found a large bag of marijuana and smaller bags of assorted pills. Kelli, of course, denied the drugs were hers. Even though this is not an uncommon response when caught with drugs, the cop believed her. But who would have wanted to accuse Kelli, PTA president and respected member of the community, of being a drug dealer? Listen now for part one of this truly stranger than fiction case.

On Friday, February 18th, 2011, six-year-old Jack Adcock was admitted to the hospital by his general practitioner for nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. His doctor, Hadiza Bawa-Garba, started him on fluids and requested tests. At the time she had just returned from 13 months of maternity leave and was brand new to the hospital. Her supervisor was a town away and she was covering the role of two other doctors.
Around 7PM that night, Jack's parents gave him his medication for high blood pressure, just as they would have at home. Jack went into cardiac arrest and a team immediately started to resuscitate him. However, the electronic health records system was down that day, causing Dr. Bawa-Garba to confuse Jack for a different patient that had occupied his room earlier with orders for a DNR. They resumed life saving efforts but it was too late, Jack was pronounced dead at 9:20 PM that evening.
Dr. Bawa-Garba was charged and convicted with manslaughter by gross negligence. She was also banned from practicing medicine. The medical community was shocked and outraged. Dr. Bawa-Garba was able to appeal the decision and reduce the ban to one year, but the manslaughter conviction remained. Listen now for the full story!
