Welcome to another special episode of Courtroom Confidential: Case Notes! This week, host Joshua Ritter dives into the mysterious and tragic deaths of two Los Angeles women.

In November 2021, 24-year-old Christy Giles and 26-year-old Hilda Marcela Cabrales-Arzola went out together for a girls' night. The next day, a group of masked men in a plateless vehicle dumped the women at two separate hospitals.

Christy passed away soon after, and Hilda was taken off life support nearly two weeks later – a day before her 27th birthday.

Three men were eventually arrested: David Pearce was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter, while Brandt Osborn and Michael Ansbach were arrested on suspicion of accessory to manslaughter.

Listen as Joshua breaks down the timeline of Christy and Hilda’s night out, and the latest information in the case.
