Beneath The Surface

Red Light Murder (The Daniel Murdoch Case)


Listen Later

In this episode, we talk about how three unrelated incidents—running a red light, a welfare check on an elderly man, and a suspicious hospital death—spiraled into major criminal investigations. We break down how a traffic stop uncovered Daniel Murdoch, a felon armed with multiple illegal firearms; how a detective’s visit revealed a serial burglar targeting vulnerable seniors; and how a supposed food poisoning death turned out to be arsenic murder tied to a financial dispute and a past murder plot. We cover the evidence, arrests, and full police investigations that led to convictions, including a six-and-a-half-year sentence for Murdoch and a life sentence for the poisoner.
