Mugshot: Recent Episodes
CDM Productions
You've heard the stories about bloody murder and horrendous homicide, but what about the rest of the crimes committed on a daily basis? Mugshot is a single narrator story telling podcast that brings you the crimes you didn't know you needed to hear... Robbery, fraud, arson, stalking, assault, and more.
American Scandal is a podcast from Wondery that explores the darker stories that have shaped the United States. From the Unabomber to Bernie Madoff, these are stories that reveal the underbelly of America: ruthless, secretive, and power-hungry. The new season of American Scandal looks at the controversial decision made by a young government official named Daniel Ellsburg to leak the Pentagon Papers, the documents that led Americans to demand an end to the catastrophic Vietnam War. Once Ellsburg realized this terrible truth, he made the bold decision to leak the documents, and the consequences altered the course of American history. This is just a preview of American Scandal, but you can listen to the full episode at wondery.fm/AS_corpusandmugshot
Few things are more devastating than a loved one going missing. On The Vanished podcast from Wondery, host Marissa Jones tells stories of missing persons that have gone overlooked by mainstream media. In a recent episode, Marissa looks into the disappearance of James Foster Chance. The 48-year-old man from Texas went missing in March of 2021. Devastated and without any leads, James’ family began searching for him. But in their search they began uncovering clues that James was not the man they thought he was. And worse -- that he may have disappeared on purpose. Listen to The Vanished at wondery.fm/TV_corpusmugshot
"Veteran journalist Joe Nocera’s neighbor in the Hamptons was a therapist named Ike. Ike counted celebrities and Manhattan elites as his patients. He’d host star-studded parties at his eccentric vacation house. But one summer, Joe discovered that Ike was gone and everything he’d thought he’d known about his neighbor -- and the house next door -- was wrong. From Wondery, the company behind Dirty John and Dr. Death, and Bloomberg, “The Shrink Next Door” is a story about power, control and turning to the wrong person for help for three decades. Written and hosted by Joe Nocera, a columnist for Bloomberg. The Shrink Next Door is now an Apple Original series, starring Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd. Watch now only on Apple TV+.

Leona Helmsley was a force to be reckoned with. Not only did she take whatever she wanted in life by any means necessary, including her husband, she seemed to thrive on belittling those around her. This came back to bite her when, after an $8 million renovation on her "weekend" mansion, she tried to dispute charges by citing shoddy work. Little did she know, her contractors noticed that the Helmsley's company had been billed - not the couple themselves.

A 911 call comes in about a beloved member of the elementary school's after school program, and PTA President, stating she had been driving erratically and was seen hiding drugs in her car. Everyone was shocked and confused, as no one could believe Kelli Peters could ever put herself, or a child in danger. And maybe they were right to be confused. But who would make up such a lie?

In the town of Dalton, Georgia, a small Bible group experienced a big miracle. After months of feeling like they had a bigger calling, a bigger purpose, their Bible began to seep oil, and didn't seem to let up. Knowing this was their moment, they began to give the oil away, encouraging people to be anointed and whatever they asked of the Lord would be granted. Stories flowed in of the ailments cured, the businesses revived, the wealth restored, so much so that the news took note. But when the newspaper article was released, an employee from a tractor supply store spoke up, and what he had to say brought the whole thing in to question...

In the 1950's, the United States ran testing with atomic bombs. Of course, these bombs affected people and the environment, but to what extent was unknown. A project was launched to figure this out, but finding test subjects was difficult. Despite knowing the legal ramifications, body snatching was employed to ensure the testing could be completed.

In the last episode, Gerd Heidemann was working on the scoop of the century after finding Hitler's lost diaries. Once they were published, they were quickly outed as fakes. While everyone was pointing their fingers at Heidemann, he was insisting the person he bought them from had to be the guilty party. So, who was behind the fakes?

In the 1980's, an investigative journalist makes the find of a lifetime - the previously lost diaries of Adolf Hitler. Not only would this be a snapshot into history, some of the information inside would cast doubt onto what we previously knew about one of the most notorious villains of all time. Once the diaries are published, questions begin to arise. Are they even real? If not, where did they come from? And who would be daring enough to try to rewrite history?

Gerald Payne was a schemer. He was also a preacher. Once he established his new ministry, he came up with a great idea for an investment program for his church members. It would return their money two fold. Only, the idea wasn't legitimate, and people lost their life savings.

We've all heard a good conspiracy theory about how the government is up to something behind our backs, but there's one that's definitely true. Dr. Sidney Gottlieb was a brilliant chemist and poison expert chosen to serve as director of a top secret CIA initiative - mind control. While the operation was approved by government officials, the entire project was shrouded in extra layers of secrecy, but why? What was there to hide?

Sister Aimee was an evangelist who established the very first megachurch. Aimee's unconventional preaching style made her an instant celebrity, for using 50 piece bands and elaborate productions to get her point across. That's why the community could hardly take it when she went missing from the beach one spring day, only to reappear a month later. Was it a kidnapping? Did she run off with a lover?

The Catholic Church has been the center of a widespread scandal for a while now. In this episode, I am honored to be joined by Gemma Hoskins from the Netflix documentary "The Keepers" as we take a look at this widespread problem. The scandal runs deep, but we attempt to at least scratch the surface to provide an understanding of the history, present, and future of abuse at the hands of Catholic clergy.

In this week's Mugshot, we visit the story of Reinaldo Silvestre, a cosmetic surgeon in Miami, Florida, who has since been nicknamed "The Butcher of Southbeach"
