Superb listen, with a unique angle and insight

Laura Richards doesn’t just cover the bare facts of the case, or even the emotional details, but analyzes the meaning behind the actions of perpetrators to uncover what truly happened. In a day where many perpetrators of violence are taken at their word when describing what they did and why, Richards is able to take apart their words, situations and actions and uncover the real, and often more brutal, truth, holding these perpetrators truly accountable. She seamlessly blends her criminal experience and academic knowledge into clear messages that allow listeners to learn and have more insight themselves. If this podcast were required listening for police officers in training, forces all over the world would finally adequately deal with abuse, violence and sexual assault, which many forces don’t deal with well at all. So give it a listen!
