Real Crime Profile

Investigative reporter and co-author of the book “Victim F”, Nicole Weisensee Egan deep dives into the tactics used against Aaron when he was interrogated by police. Jim and Laura are shocked that the detective who handled this case so badly actually received the “Law Enforcement Officer of the Year” Award that year. Jim weighs in with what he thinks was going on with the initial police investigation.  Laura reads a reprehensible quote that Detective Matt Mustard said to Denise’s mother and also points out that the misogynistic attitudes evidenced by some in the Vallejo police should disqualify them from dealing with vulnerable victims.LINK TO VICTIM F BOOKhttps://amzn.to/3fPBbo2You can hear the links used in this episode in their entirety here:https://abc7news.com/gone-girl-kidnapping-case-vallejo-kidnap-hoax-matthew-muller/1335950/https://abcnews.go.com/2020/video/police-cast-doubt-aaron-quinns-story-denise-huskins-78095427We are so thankful for our sponsors

We interview award-winning journalist Nicole Weisensee Egan, who had asked Laura to review the book "Victim F" which she co-authored with Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn. Nicki was intrigued to know Laura and Jim’s opinion on the case. Nicki also tells us how many loose ends and unanswered questions still remain because no one has ever really properly investigated the crime. LINK TO VICTIM F BOOKhttps://amzn.to/3fPBbo2LINK TO CHASING COSBY THE BOOKhttps://amzn.to/3AzekW1LINK TO CHASING COSBY THE PODCASThttps://music.amazon.com/podcasts/dffd76b6-f14b-4ed0-a2d6-c45bad63a0b2/chasing-cosby?refMarker=dm_wcp_af_r&ref=dmm_acq_mrn_d_ds_rh&ref=dmm_acq_mrn_d_ds_rh&You can hear the clips used in this episode in their entirety at this link:https://abcnews.go.com/theview/video/denise-huskins-aaron-quinn-recount-kidnapping-discuss-book-78134213We are so thankful for our sponsors.

We wrap up our follow-up conversation with Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn with Jim and Laura digging deeper into their case. Jim discusses the unusual dichotomy of the offender’s behavior as both sadistic in nature, and also presenting as a power-reassurance rapist — which could also indicate multiple offenders in this crime. Laura talks about how dangerous perpetrators are able to get out of prison due to both the mistakes by law enforcement and also their cunning in gaming the system. You can read Denise and Aaron’s book, co-written with investigative journalist Nicole Weisensee Egan "Victim F" available now on Amazon. https://amzn.to/3dhzvCJ#VictimF#DeniseHuskins#AaronQuinn#NicoleWeisenseeEgan#believevictimsCLIPS PLAYED IN TODAY’S EPISODE CAN BE HEARD IN THEIR ENTIRETY HERE:Denise Huskins, Aaron Quinn Want Vallejo Police to "Make Changes to Be Better" | The Viewhttps://youtu.be/Z0Hc03N9l-E 'Gone Girl' Case: Break in Bizarre Kidnapping – ABC Newshttps://youtu.be/IhZxY4cPOwoPLEASE SUPPORT OUR

Denise and Aaron continue telling us their harrowing story.  They describe the humiliation and callous treatment that law enforcement put them through -- from interrogating Aaron for eighteen hours, to giving Denise the incredibly disrespectful (and FALSE) moniker of "Gone Girl". Aaron and Denise also talk about how they were saved by the determined detective work of Misty Carausu -- who was working in a completely different county on a different case. Yet she managed to connect the dots Vallejo police could not (or would not). Lastly, the couple talks about the healing process of writing the book "Victim F" together.#victimsmatter#denisehuskins#aaronquinn#victimfbook#nicoleweisenseeeganThe clips you hear excerpted in our episode can be heard in their entirety here:ABC - 7: Survivors of Vallejo 'Gone Girl' case respond after police apologize for calling them liarshttps://youtu.be/I_SXgJFxSl4ABC - 7: California police department ap

This episode is our first in a series about an extraordinary case called "Victim F." In March 2015, Denise Huskins and her boyfriend Aaron Quinn awoke at 3am to a nightmare. Armed men bound and drugged them, then abducted Denise, warning Aaron not to call the police or she would be killed. Aaron agonized about what to do. Finally he put his trust in law enforcement and dialed 911. Instead of searching for Denise, the police accused Aaron of her murder. Days later, when Denise was let go, instead of pursuing her abductors, they turned on her, accusing her of faking her own kidnapping. In their book, "Victim F" Aaron and Denise recount the horrific ordeal that followed. It is an unbelievable story that is all too true. You can read their book, co-written with investigative journalist Nicole Weisensee Egan "Victim F" available now on Amazon. https://amzn.to/3dhzvCJ#VictimF#DeniseHuskins#AaronQuinn#NicoleWeisenseeEgan#believevictimsThe clips used in this episode are from ABC's 20/20 : Taken.

We continue pointing out the many contradictions in the Quillette podcast episode covering the HBO Docu-series "Allen v Farrow". Their take could not be more different than our analysis, and we want to set the record straight. It is important to note that Woody Allen has always denied any wrongdoing and has never been charged nor convicted of any crime. The original podcast we are referring to if you want to hear it and judge for yourself can be found at: https://quillette.com/2021/04/04/podcast-143-daphne-merkin-on-the-baseless-abuse-claims-against-woody-allen-and-why-the-media-refuses-to-let-them-die/#webelieveDylan#victimsmatter#dylanfarrow#miafarrow#woodyallen#janedoefilms#allenvfarrowThe full Kathy Griffin clip can be seen here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j74_TSnuN9o We are so grateful to our sponsors, please check out their special offers for our Real Crime Profile listeners.CONTEXT LEARNING - If you love travel and learning you’re going to love

Laura brings to our attention a podcast that was "associated" with RCP on Spotify. They too covered the HBO Docu-series "Allen v Farrow", but their take could not be more different than our analysis, and we want to set the record straight. It is important to note that Woody Allen has always denied any wrongdoing and has never been charged nor convicted of any crime. The original podcast we are referring to if you want to hear it and judge for yourself can be found at: https://quillette.com/2021/04/04/podcast-143-daphne-merkin-on-the-baseless-abuse-claims-against-woody-allen-and-why-the-media-refuses-to-let-them-die/#webelieveDylan#victimsmatter#dylanfarrow#miafarrow#woodyallen#janedoefilms#allenvfarrow We are so grateful to our sponsors, please check out their special offers for our Real Crime Profile listeners.ID TECH CAMPS- Get your child excited for the future—and equip them with the tools to thrive when they get there.

We continue our talk with Professor Joan Meier who appeared in the HBO Docuseries "Allen v Farrow". She explains how "Parental Alienation" was used in the custody case against Mia Farrow and how common that tactic is in Family Court. It is important to note that Woody Allen has denied all allegations against him and he has never been charged nor convicted of any crime. Trigger warning: This episode will contain clips from the PBS docuseries "Breaking the Silence: Children's Stories" which Prof. Meier also appeared in. There are explicit descriptions of child sex abuse that are very disturbing. Please be warned.

Professor Meier created the Domestic Violence Legal Empowerment and Appeals Project (DV LEAP). She is an expert when it comes to the bias against women in Family Court and the lack of understanding in Family Court when it comes to the connection between reported child sexual abuse and domestic violence. She talks about the challenge of debunking the "Parental Alienation" narratives so prevalent in the Dylan Farrow case. You can also watch Prof. Meier in the PBS documentary: Breaking the Silence: Children's Stories. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rShllw2gMkWe are so grateful to our sponsors for this week's episode:PURPLE MATTRESS - Purple really is comfort for an uncomfortable world!

We continue our analysis of the case of Dylan Farrow. Jim explains how to understand Moses Farrow's recent change of heart and his defense of Woody Allen against the allegations of child sexual abuse by his sister Dylan. Laura gives us some shocking statistics about how family courts deal with allegations of child sexual abuse and the dire need for education and training. It is important to note that Woody Allen has always denied any wrongdoing and has never been charged nor convicted of any crime. #victimsmatter#dylanfarrow#miafarrow#woodyallen#janedoefilms#allenvfarrowYou can hear all of the clips used in our episode in their entirety here:CBS news reporting on Moses Farrowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHfBzQqe5ms&t=130sLifetime Intimate Portrait of Mia Farrowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5FRd99oSpk&t=1694sReport regarding Alec Baldwin's defense of Woody Allen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJQ5dO5egMQWe are so grateful to our sponsors for supporting our show:ANCIENT NUTRI

We continue our coverage of the case of Dylan Farrow. Jim talks about the limited choices the Connecticut prosecutor Frank Maco had when deciding whether or not to bring charges against Woody Allen for the alleged sexual abuse of Dylan. Laura is puzzled as to why Judge Wilkes ruling in the child custody battle (in favor of Mia Farrow) did not get more publicity and allow Mia to change the narrative put forth by Woody Allen. Lisa talks about why a child who experiences sexual abuse might recant or not want to continue talking about the events after disclosure. The partial clips you will hear in today's episode where sourced from the following:CLIP #2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohQ_0CgYvPsCLIP #3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yuhDaWHp1UCLIP #4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxZkkWCKwdo&t=74sWe are so grateful to our sponsor:UPSTART - Upstart is the fast and easy way to pay off your debt with a personal loan -- all online.
