MurdHer: Women in Crime

Episode 53: Gypsy Rose Blanchard

On June 14, 2015 a welfare check was called in on DeeDee and Gypsy Rose Blanchard. The police enter to find DeeDee murdered and her severely disabled daughter, Gypsy, missing.

Once Gypsy is found the case is further flipped on its head. Tune in for another Dani Deep Dive and Gabe, who apparently has been living under a rock, get his mind blown.

Episode 52: Joann Curley

Joann Curley and Bobby were just recently married when tragedy struck. Bobby, a construction worker by trade, began getting sick and was diagnosed with a rare nerve disorder. A lucky meeting with a toxicologist, just before Bobby passed, would change everything.

Tune in, and hear both the story and Dani fight off her unhinged anxiety over how hard it was raining.

Episode 51: Casey Anthony

In July 2011, the Casey Anthony case captivated the nation. Accused of murdering her own 2-year-old daughter, Casey Anthony, a woman whose narrative is often punctuated by more falsehoods than truths, was found not guilty by a jury of her peers. Despite the legal verdict many are certain of her guilt.

Our latest episode delves deeper than ever before. Over 2 hours, Dani sifts through prosecution and defense narratives, court records, and interviews to present a comprehensive exploration of the case. Dani and Gabe find themselves facing a question no other case on MurdHer has ever raised: Despite Casey Anthony's very likely guilt in killing her daughter, was the jury correct in declaring her "not guilty"?
