CrimeWireSite.Com

Tuesday, May 7, 2013 will be the last show for long time Crime Wire host, Dennis Griffin. The show will be devoted to his long standing popularity through the years as the founder of the show.

Listen in for many surprise guests!

To listen LIVE or to the podcast on Inside Lenz Network: CLICK HERE

Dennis Griffin has stepped down from the helm of Crime Wire to fulfill obligations to new books and new ventures.  For the faithful followers of Crime Wire this news is bitter sweet. We’re happy that Denny is pursuing his dreams and passions, but we will miss him and his expert input from week to week.
Crime Wire has gone through several changes since it’s inception several years ago when it was established withDenny Griffin and Susan Murphy-Milano as co-hosts. Denny and Susan were an exceptional team that played off of each other brilliantly. There are hundreds of shows in the archives for fans of the show to listen to as they wish, covering many cases and topics. Susan Murphy-Milano lost her battle with cancer on October 28, 2012.
Always true to the original notion of helping families bring more attention to cases of unsolved homicides, missing persons, intimate partner violence, and other related crime stories, the show will continue under the leadership of the very capable Kim Kolton.
Kim Kolton has worked side by side with Denny since Crime Wire began. She has served as the Crime Wire Director of Research, but her duties have gone well beyond that title. Kim has been the Producer of the show and long time co-host. She is the one who is first to talk to potential guests, screening cases and researching the details. She will no doubt continue her due diligence for the future success of the show.
Dennis N Griffin
For someone who “retired” in the late ’90′s Dennis Griffin’s second life has been filled with opportunity. He has made a name for himself as one of the premier true crime authors covering the history of the Mob in Las Vegas, to which he has devoted a lot of his writing, along with other tales of criminals and the crimes they survived. Denny’s presence on the show will be missed, but he promises to make occasional appearances when time allows.
Denny will continue on the Inside Lenz Network with his monthly show, “We Know a Guy” which examines anything Mob related and features many of the characters Denny has written about in his books.
Let’s toast to Denny Griffin in style!
Join the show, not to say goodbye, but to wish him well in all his future endeavors.

The person who found the remains while searching for fossils around Lake JB Thomas in Scurry County , prison official Curtis Lloyd, will be a guest of host, Peter Hyatt, along with statement analyst and frequent guest, Kaaren Gough.

The public is watching how the players in this case are reacting to the news of Hailey’s confirmed death, specifically her mother, Billie Jean Dunn and her boyfriend, Shawn Atkins, both the only named “persons of interest” in the disappearance of Hailey.
As reported to NewsWest Nine,  “Lloyd also said many of the people who spent the last 28 months searching for Hailey have reached out to him to tell him thanks, but he says this isn’t about him. This is about Hailey and making sure justice is served.”

Time'sUpCover
Two years ago, April, 2010, Susan Murphy Milano released her third book, Time’s Up: A Guide on How to Leave an Abusive and Stalking Relationship which includes the revolutionary tool for leaving abusive relationships safely, the Evidentiary Abuse Affidavit.
May 22, 2012 was the last Crime Wire show Susan recorded with co-host, Dennis Griffin, before her death on October 28, 2012, but the information contained in this show is timeless and useful for any victim of abuse who is thinking about getting out safely.Susan Murphy-Milano,ImaginePublicity,Conquering Cancer
On the show Susan talks frankly with 2 survivors of abusive relationships and how important the book Time’s Up and the Evidentiary Abuse Affidavit was in securing their safety.
Susan Murphy Milano turned her 20 years of experience in the field of  high risk domestic violence cases into more than a book, a tool for others to use in order to save the lives of those needing escape from a violent or stalking relationship.
Born with an instinct to come up with strategies to escape the abuse happening in her own home, Susan  has consistently used that instinctive gift towards helping others by working with them in the “danger zone.”
Everyone involved in the movement against family violence should have these tools available, especially the unique “Evidentiary Abuse Affidavit” which is a series of forms and a video that will be a voice for victims who need to be heard.  Cases will be resolved and abusers will be arrested.
Safety plans have been created over the years, but nothing like what is set forth in “Time’s Up” has been presented to be used by those who come in contact with a victim every step of the way, such as attorneys, hospital personnel, prosecutors, advocates and shelter workers.  This information needs to be in the victim’s hands as early as possible to prevent any further escalation of violence.
The Evidentiary Abuse Affidavit (iEAA) is also available as an app in the Apple Store.
Susan’s last book, Holding My Hand Through Hell, is her legacy to all of the victims who are still alive today that were able to come in contact with her unique talents and intuition on how to escape safely.  It will show you why she did what she did to save your life, it’s the true story of who Susan Murphy Milano really was.
Time’s Up and Holding My Hand Through Hell are available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books A Million, local book stores, libraries and all digital platforms.

Statement analyst, Peter Hyatt, has followed the case of Hailey Dunn from the very beginning.

Crime Wire,Hailey Dunn,Peter Hyatt
On March 16, 2013 badly decomposed and skeletal remains were found in a field of cactus and brush in Scurry County, Texas, 30 miles away from the area that 13-year-old Hailey Dunn was last seen.
In an online poll, 92% of Peter Hyatt’s readers responded that they felt the remains were most likely belonging to Hailey.
Hyatt will bring Crime Wire listeners up to date on the latest about the discovery, and the behaviors and statements of the parties surrounding the case and her disappearance.
Hailey Dunn went missing on December 27, 2010 while allegedly walking to a friend’s house in broad  daylight in Colorado City, Texas. She was reported missing by her mother, Billie Jean Dunn.
The case quickly turned bizarre with accusations of drugs, child porn, failed polygraphs and Hailey’s mother, Billie Jean Dunn, being named a person of interest in her daughter’s disappearance, along with her live-in boyfriend.
Crime Wire host Peter Hyatt has painstakingly combed through interviews by several people connected to the case and has found deception in their words where truth should have prevailed.

Crime Wire: Who Killed Chrissy?

Guest, Beverly Simcic, is the author of the new book Who Killed Chrissy?

Crime Wire, ImaginePublicityWho Killed Chrissy? is the story of two young women from Pittsburgh—Beverly Simcic and Christine Casilio—who went to Las Vegas in June of 1982 for a vacation and to check out employment opportunities. Just weeks later, on June 25, Christine’s body was found decomposing in the bathroom of her small studio apartment. The homicide remains unsolved to this day.
Beverly was interviewed by Las Vegas Metro detectives at the time. But in the over 30 years since, she hasn’t shared her knowledge of events surrounding her friend’s death with the public until now.
A miracle, a vision, a premonition, and an unsolved death in Las Vegas, have hung in my memory like a broken antique for the last twenty-four years of my life. I’ve had that long to think about the reason it all happened in the first place and why I was drawn to, and ultimately placed in the old apartment building on Riverview Avenue in Pittsburgh. If you believe that nothing happens by accident, or if you have lost your faith, this true story of fate and divine intervention will shed a bright light on all the possibilities…
I’ve had this true story locked in my mind since June of 1982. I have never told this story to anyone—for reasons of paralyzing fear and the fact that the murder has never been solved.

Please join us as we try to answer the question: Who Killed Chrissy?

Peter Hyatt, Crime Wire, Dylan Redwine, Elaine Redwine
13 year old Dylan Redwine has been missing from Vallecito, Colorado since spending the Thanksgiving holiday with his father, Mark Redwine. It’s reported that Dylan’s family life was tumultuous and his mother and father had not spoken in several years.
As often happens in cases of missing children from broken homes, there tends to be blame cast on one parent or another. Mark and Elaine Redwine appeared on the Dr. Phil Show and faced each other for the first time in years. It wasn’t a happy reunion. In spite of the fact that their 13 year old son is missing, family drama is played out on national television when Dr. Phil offered Mark Redwine the opportunity to take a polygraph and clear his name. Mark Redwine had quite a few difficulties and stopped the polygraph.
dylan-redwine
“I do believe that Mark had something to do with Dylan’s disappearance. I do believe he knows more,” Elaine Redwine said.
Elaine and Mark Redwine came face-to-face for the first time since their son went missing. She and other family members believe Mark Redwine knows more than he is letting on and that he is not doing anything to help find Dylan….Our Colorado News.
Peter Hyatt and Statement Analyst and Private Investigator Kaaryn Gough will talk to Dylan Redwine’s mother, Elaine, and try to answer some of the questions surrounding her missing son.
  • Did Mark Redwine have anything to do with his son’s disappearance?
  • Is Mark Redwine being deceptive according to statement analysis?
  • Why does Elaine Redwine believe her ex-husband knows where Dylan is?
  • What does statement analysis say is deceptive in Mark Redwine’s conversations?
  • What is going on in the family dynamic that may be hindering the investigation?
To read details about missing Dylan Redwine, the investigation, and the analysis of those close to the case, refer to Peter Hyatt’s site, Statement Analysis.
