Transcribe →Kouri Richins Trial Pt. 2 'If He Could Just Go Away' — The Texts That Destroyed Her
2w ago00:59:09Tap to summarizeIn the conclusion of our "Best of the Trial" series, Tyrella and Nikita dive into the most emotional and bizarre moments from the Kouri Richins courtroom. We start with Robert Grossman, the "boyfriend" whose testimony began with a moment so unusual that Judge Mrazik had to halt proceedings to explain the concept of "the whole truth." We break down the devastating texts, the $25,000 life insurance payment, and the chilling question Kouri asked him just two weeks after her husband's death. Then, we look at the strategic battle over the "Drug Chain." Even with a witness who couldn't remember his own interview, the prosecution had a secret weapon: location data. Highlights: The moment the courtroom went silent during the oath. Why the defense’s cross-examination of the housekeeper might have been their biggest mistake. Tyrella’s "official" review of Judge Richard Mrazik (the man with the voice of an angel). Where sentencing stands Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

2w ago00:45:42Tap to summarizeEpisode Title: Kouri Richins Trial: The PI Who Cracked the Case (Part 1) Kouri Richins was convicted of murdering her husband, Eric, with five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in a Moscow Mule she made for him.

From a Private Investigator with a GoPro and a fused neck who became the defense's worst nightmare, to the heartbreaking testimony of a best friend who realized she was actually a target.

Transcribe →Solved Cold Case: The Murder of Danni Houchins
Apr 1401:00:08Tap to summarizeIn September of 1996, 15-year-old Danielle “Danni” Houchins was found lifeless and face down in a marshy area in Belgrade, Montana. The local sheriff’s department ruled her cause of death as drowning and her manner of death as undetermined. The sheriff told the press that there were no indications of foul play, despite autopsy findings showing the exact opposite.

Transcribe →The Afroman Trial Explained: White Cops Hear Rap for First Time
Apr 701:17:50Tap to summarizeWhat happens when you turn a "bullshit" police raid into a viral rap song? In August 2022, the Adams County Sheriff’s Office raided Afroman’s home looking for a basement dungeon that didn't exist. When no charges were filed, Afroman did what he does best: he made music. Using security and bodycam footage, he released hits like "Lemon Pound Cake" and "Randy Walters," leading seven officers to sue him for defamation and false light. Join Tyrella and Nikita as they break down the March 2026 civil trial, the "actual malice" standard for public officials, and the "diabolically funny" moments in the courtroom—from "reshuffling" seized cash to a witness who didn't know if his own wife had cheated. It’s a masterclass in the First Amendment, parody as criticism, and why you should never mess with Afroman's mom’s pound cake. Want access to our first 45 episodes? Grab em here!

Transcribe →Operation Shattered Shield: The NOPD’s Most Corrupt Era
Mar 3100:52:18Tap to summarizeIn the early 1990s, New Orleans was known as the "Murder Capital of America," but the most dangerous criminals weren't just on the streets—some were wearing badges. Today on This Feels Criminal, Tyrella and Nikita break down Operation Shattered Shield, the massive FBI sting that exposed deep-seated corruption within the NOPD. We follow the story of the Hardy Brothers, a violent drug syndicate protected by the very officers sworn to stop them. At the center of it all is Officer Len Davis, a man so feared he was nicknamed "The Desire Projects Terrorist." When 32-year-old mother Kim Groves filed a brutality complaint against him, she had no idea she was signing her own death warrant. In this episode, we discuss: The Hardy Boys: How Wayne and Paul Hardy built a drug empire with help from inside the police department. The FBI Sting: How an undercover agent posing as a Miami dealer caught NOPD officers guarding shipments of cocaine. The Betrayal of Kim Groves: The heartbreaking story of a mother who stood up for her community and the chilling moment her murder was caught on an FBI wire. The Aftermath: The fallout of the 2012 DOJ consent decree and the quest for reform in New Orleans. Want access to our first 45 episodes? Grab em here!
