Scott Peterson
Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Scott Peterson, the California man convicted of murdering his pregnant wife Laci on Christmas Eve 2002. On the surface, Scott Peterson had everything -- a beautiful wife, a home, and a baby boy on the way -- and none of the red flags that typically appear in a killer's past. Candice explores what was hiding beneath Peterson's flawless exterior, and how unchecked psychopathy, narcissim and indfidelity culminated in one of America's most notorious crimes.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Listen Now: My Mom’s Murder
Lauren Malloy was a baby when her mother, Lori, was murdered in East Providence, Rhode Island. For thirty years, no one told her. Everyone said Lori died of natural causes. Then a stranger sent Lauren a message — and the lie collapsed. Now Lauren is investigating her own mother’s murder. She’s recorded hundreds of hours of interviews with law enforcement, family, childhood friends, and people who won’t stop contradicting each other. Every answer opens a darker question. Every person she trusts seems to be hiding something. And the closer she gets to the truth, the more she realizes the people she trusts may be the ones with the most to hide. A 10-part true crime investigation hosted by the victim’s daughter. Lauren’s mission: to finally uncover the identity of Lori’s killer.

Lindsay Clancy
Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts labor and delivery nurse who strangled her three young children: five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callan, before attempting to take her own life. On the surface, January 24th, 2023 looked like an ordinary Tuesday: a doctor's appointment, kids playing in the snow, a family running errands. Twenty-five minutes later, it was a crime scene. In the months before that night, Lindsay's family watched her unravel under a rapidly worsening psychiatric condition, even as she kept seeking help and cycling through new prescriptions. Drawing on her own decade as a psychiatric nurse before the Bureau, Candice examines the excruciating question at the center of the case, whether Lindsay Clancy is a criminal or a woman consumed by severe postpartum mental illness; and why, twenty-five years after Andrea Yates, America is still struggling to tell the difference.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Lori Vallow Daybell
Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Lori Vallow Daybell, the Idaho mother whose apocalyptic religious beliefs concealed the murders of her own two children. For months, nine-year-old JJ Vallow and seventeen-year-old Tylee Ryan were missing, and Lori offered the world nothing but shifting stories and eerie calm. Behind her, an inner circle of relatives, self-styled prophets, and her new husband had convinced each other that the people closest to them were consumed by evil spirits, and that removing them was salvation, not murder. But beneath the couple's Rexburg property, the truth was buried in shallow graves. Candice examines how doomsday theology, love bombing, and a trail of sudden deaths built the psychological architecture for one of the decade's most chilling family crimes, and why, even after conviction, the full scope of what ""Doomsday Mom"" believed still unsettles investigators.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Luigi Mangione Pleads Guilty: What Happens Now? - A Conversation with Josh Ritter
Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong breaks down the stunning legal turn in the case of Luigi Mangione, the man who admitted to shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on a Manhattan sidewalk in December 2024. After 21 months of pleading not guilty in every courtroom, Mangione stood before a federal judge and confessed -- with no deal, no agreement, and no promises from prosecutors seeking life in prison. Candice is joined by former Los Angeles prosecutor and legal analyst Josh Ritter to unpack why a defendant would plead guilty to everything and get nothing in return, whether New York's double jeopardy laws can shut down a separate state murder trial, and what this case reveals about a country increasingly willing to celebrate an admitted killer as a folk hero.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Richard Ramirez Part 2: An Interview with Frank Falzon
Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong revisits the case of Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker, through the eyes of the man who cracked it. While Los Angeles dominated the headlines, it was a San Francisco homicide inspector named Frank Falzon who first put a name to one of history's most feared serial killers. Candice sits down with Falzon to trace the unlikely chain of evidence -- a stolen bracelet, a borrowed car, a reluctant informant -- that led investigators straight to Richard Ramirez, and to hear firsthand what it was like to come face to face with the Night Stalker himself.Frank Falzon's memoir, San Francisco Homicide Inspector 5-Henry-7, is available at: https://www.amazon.com/San-Francisco-Homicide-Inspector-5-Henry-7/dp/B0B72QWXLKAudible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.

Richard Ramirez - The Night Stalker
Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the terrifying case of Richard Ramirez, the serial killer and sexual predator who turned the summer of 1985 into a season of fear across Southern California. Striking seemingly at random, Ramirez slipped into homes after dark, attacking men, women, and children with a brutality that left investigators struggling to find a pattern -- or predict where he would strike next. As the body count grew, so did the panic, until a crucial forensic clue and an extraordinary public manhunt finally brought the Night Stalker's reign of terror to an end. Candice examines the psychology behind Ramirez's escalating violence, the chaotic investigation that raced to stop him, and how one killer transformed the most intimate place imaginable -- the home -- into a source of fear for millions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
