Letters from Prison: My Dad's First Year Jul 15, 2022

Show notes

In a look into the mind of a sociopathic killer, Collier goes through three never-before-opened letters that his father sent him from prison in 1991. His father was approaching his first full year locked up while writing these letters. Through these pages, we see hints that Collier's father still holds some major resentment towards him for testifying against him in court.

In this week's listener question, we hear from a teacher who had to help a young student who (like Collier) had a father who killed her mother. Hear what Collier recommends for those struggling through this terrible trauma and how his own teachers were so important to his recovery.
Collier's dad tries to relate to his son by sharing what he's been watching on TV. Hear what he thinks of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
From having cartoons drawn on his letters to getting customized fitness programs, hear how Collier's father is getting the most out of his fellow prison inmates.
What kind of mental gymnastics do murderers have to jump through to try to convince others that they're innocent? Collier analyzes his dad's methods, laid out in these letters.
"I'm still in the struggle to overturn this illegal conviction." These are the words Collier's father wrote to him as he began to set the stage for appealing his guilty verdict in the murder of his wife.

In a Mass-Shooting, "Your Instincts Just Take Over." - A Survivor's Lesson Jul 08, 2022

Show notes

This video discusses sensitive topics, including gun violence, mass shootings, and surviving those violent incidents. If you are triggered in any way, please stop the video and seek counseling from a mental health professional.

America is suffering through a bloody and ongoing epidemic for which there is no vaccine. This week's episode analyzes mass shootings and speaks to a woman who survived the worst mass shooting in US history with her children. You may have thought about what you would do during a mass shooting, but what do you do after? Physical wounds aren't the only wounds bullets can cause. As we hear, mental trauma can create scars that last a lifetime.

Listen to the first-hand account of Stacie Armentrout. She was injured but lived through the Las Vegas mass shooting in 2017. The bloodshed at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Vegas is the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. After the lone gunman stopped firing, 58 people died, and more than 850 were injured. Stacie was in the middle of it with her daughters.
What do you think in the middle of shooting may not be what your body lets you do? "Fight or flight" isn't always something you have physical control over.
"Locks are for honest people." Collier and Stacie discuss the bloodlust killers have and question what can be done to stop these people beforehand.
Could you be going to work every day and sitting next to a potential mass murderer and not knowing it? Do you know the signs to look for? Stacie and Collier explore the importance of making those answers more mainstream.
Shootings and traumatic events can trigger emotional breakdowns in survivors. Hear why Stacie says it's okay to experience those feelings and why it's essential to acknowledge that sometimes we can't control everything.

The Pleasure Narcissists Seek: Exploring Ghislaine Maxwell's Crime Jul 01, 2022

Show notes

Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted assistant to infamous sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein, was just sentenced to 20 years in prison for ruining countless girls' lives. Collier discusses the narcissism that runs through Maxwell's actions and her defense. Collier also reflects on the similarities his father shares with criminals like Maxwell.

PLEASE fill out this brief audience SURVEY

Collier explains why there should be no sympathy for people like Ghislaine Maxwell. He explains how people, even from affluent and privileged backgrounds, can turn to a life of horrendous crime.
Doubling down on their crimes and mistakes: why convicted sex offenders and violent criminals often believe they've done nothing wrong.
Grooming children takes all sorts of forms, but the main premise is someone coercing kids to do what they want. Collier describes how he believes his father was trying to groom him in an effort for Collier to take back his testimony that put his father in jail.
In her testimony, Ghislaine Maxwell attempted to make herself look like the victim without recognizing the real victims - all of the innocent girls she helped traffic sexually. Collier shares a letter from his father to show the striking similarity between criminals.
How do you deal with a narcissistic parent? The trauma they inflict on their children is horrible, but as Collier explains, the trauma they inflict on others can be even worse.

Answering Your TikTok Questions: "Did my grandma know about my mother's murder?" Jun 10, 2022

Show notes

In episode 41 of Moving Past Murder, host Collier Landry answers some of his TikTok audience's questions in an open and honest conversational episode of the show.

Collier also takes a moment to weigh in on some rumors circling Reddit and the Twittersphere, his opinion on the importance of "Conscious True Crime" consumerism, and how the actions of the few should not overshadow the many survivors and victims sharing their stories in their search for justice.

The audience questions he responds to include the following:

What are some things you've had to deal with because of what your father has done?
Do you think your grandmother knew that your mom was dead? Or do you think she believed she had just up and left?
I was an elementary school teacher; I would have believed you. I am so glad that cop (Lt. David Messmore) gave you his business card.
Were you worried for your safety?

Cash, Crime, and Sociopaths: Murderish Host Jami Rice Explores the Connection Jun 03, 2022

Show notes

Murderish host Jami Rice digs deep into the most disturbing true crimes and mysteries. In episode 40 of Moving Past Murder, she and Collier dish on their cases, compare sociopaths and discuss troubles with the true-crime business. They look at financial crimes and their connection to violent crimes. As well as how the criminal minds of a murderer and a thief aren’t so different.

Why Collier really can’t stand criminals who prey on the innocent.
The woman who stole $15 million from a bank with pie and a made-up persona. Jami discusses a bizarre true crime she’s now working to crack.
Does the entertainment industry fetishize and even award certain types of criminals? Real-life con artist Anna Delvey had her story made into the Netflix special "Inventing Anna." The Tinder Swindler, Simon Leviev, tricked innocent women into giving him millions of dollars, and now he has his TV special about his devious life. Both Simon and Anna are making lots of money off their criminal behavior. Collier and Jami share their outrage.
Are some of Collier’s podcast listeners reaching out and trying to contact his dad?
What happens when the subjects of true-crime podcasts and their friends and families hear what podcast hosts say about them? The risk that comes with the job.
Whatever happened to Collier’s dog that disappeared after his mom disappeared? The moment that caused Collier to break down.

Threats and Plot Holes: The Radio Team that Interviewed a Murderer May 27, 2022

Show notes

Decades ago, Pastor Ernie Sanders looked into the murder of Collier’s mother and even interviewed his father live on the radio. In episode 39, we hear from radio host Pastor Ernie Sanders and his associate Jim Kloos on what they’ve uncovered about the case over the years. Did Collier’s father have help murdering his mother and hiding her body? For the first time, citizen investigators revealed the evidence they gathered, which led them to a shocking new possibility in the murder case.

The bag over the head: as a doctor, Collier’s father would’ve known whether or not his wife was dead. So why did he bury her with a bag covering her head if that’s not how he killed her?
Collier’s guests discuss how this fact could be a hole in the case against him.
“You better stop coming down to Mansfield. Things are going to get rough for you down here.”
The eerie warnings possible police officers allegedly gave to these amateur sleuths to stay away from the case.
The two ways to go to prison: how you can choose to go by yourself or drag your whole family down with you.
