Angela Brosso and Melanie Bernas separately rode their bikes along a path near a Phoenix canal less than a year apart in 1992 and 1993, and neither ever returned home. Both were brutally murdered, and the Phoenix canal murders haunted Arizona for years, leaving the community without answers. Matching DNA linked the two horrific crimes, but the killer was able to hide in plain sight for decades, according to Sergeant Troy Hillman, who took up this cold case years later. He assembled an all-star cold case team, and together, they were able to track down the killer. Hillman joins “Forbes True Crime” to discuss his new book, “Chasing Down the Zombie Hunter,” which details his investigation into this cold case.

The villains in some of America’s most iconic horror movies, like “Psycho” and “The Silence of the Lambs,” were inspired by crimes dating back to the 1950s committed by real-life killer and grave robber Ed Gein. Gein, who admitted to killing two women, also had a house of horrors – authorities uncovered bowls made from skulls, human heads, women’s body parts used to make furniture and household items, and both face masks and a woman suit made out of human skin. Most recently, Gein’s story is spotlighted in the latest season of the Netflix series "Monster." Harold Schechter, author of “Deviant: The Shocking True Story of the Original ‘Psycho,’” joins “Forbes True Crime" to discuss the killer now known as the Butcher of Plainfield.

As snow continued to blanket the city of Philadelphia on January 26, 2011, Ellen Greenberg, an elementary school teacher, headed home to her Manayunk neighborhood apartment that she shared with her fiancé. Just hours later, her fiancé was dialing 911 – he said he found Ellen “on the floor with blood everywhere,” before saying that she either stabbed herself or fell on a knife. Police arrived to the scene, and from the beginning, treated Ellen’s death like a suicide. After conducting an autopsy, the medical examiner’s office originally ruled her death a homicide, before reversing course and changing the manner of death to suicide. She was found dead with 20 stab wounds, including multiple to the back of her neck. For the last 14 years, Ellen’s parents, Sandee and Josh Greenberg, have been steadfast in their belief that their daughter was murdered and have been fighting to get justice for Ellen ever since. In February of 2025, the pathologist who originally conducted her autopsy said he now believes Ellen did not take her own life. Nancy Schwartzman, showrunner and director of ‘Death in Apartment 603: What Happened to Ellen Greenberg?’ joins Forbes True Crime to discuss her new series that revisits the case.

Former quarterback Erik Kramer had a storied career in the NFL for close to a decade. Years after the football player hung up his cleats, he was dealt a series of personal tragedies that could level anyone. While in the throes of depression, he tried taking his own life in 2015. Miraculously, he survived a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. The injury left him temporarily mentally incapacitated – and the moment was an opportune time for a con artist to swoop in. Under the guise of trying to help Erik, a former girlfriend slid back into his life, and in the process, stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from him. Erik's lifelong friend Anna Dergan was the first to become suspicious that Erik was being taken advantage of – and then promptly kicked off an investigation of her own. Slowly, while Erik's brain healed, the uphill battle that was the legal fight was just beginning. Erik Kramer and Anna Dergan, executive producers of “The Quarterback and the Con Artist,” join “Forbes True Crime” to share their story.

On the morning of December 4, 2024, UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was walking to an investor meeting in midtown Manhattan when a gunman approached him from behind and fatally shot him. Law enforcement described the killing as a “brazen targeted attack.” The suspect fled, spurring a nationwide manhunt that resulted in the arrest of 26-year-old Luigi Mangione in a Pennsylvania McDonald’s. According to police, Mangione was found with a ghost gun that matched the shell casings found at the scene, what was described as a handwritten manifesto, and a notebook that voiced frustrations with the country’s healthcare industry. He is currently facing a total of 20 counts across state and federal courts, and has pleaded not guilty to all the charges against him. Criminal defense attorney Danny Rubin joins “Forbes True Crime” to break down the case against Mangione.

On the night of December 6th, 1991, a fire raged inside an Austin I Can't Believe It's Yogurt shop. After the blaze was put out, a grizzly scene was revealed. The bodies of four girls – Amy Ayers, Eliza Thomas, and sisters Sarah and Jennifer Harbison, were found bound and shot in the back of the store. The shocking crime haunted the community and answers as to who murdered the teenagers eluded investigators. Over the last three decades, this case has been filled with twists and turns – multiple false confessions, convictions that were then overturned years later, and DNA evidence found at the scene that still does not have a match. Close to 34 years later, the case still remains unsolved. Margaret Brown, director of 'The Yogurt Shop Murders,' joins “Forbes True Crime” to discuss her new documentary series that reexamines the story.

FBI special agent Robert Hilland was a self-described no-nonsense, follow the facts guy. Exactly the last type of person that you would expect to consult with a psychic.

A life-changing meeting led to a 25-year working and personal relationship between the FBI agent and psychic. As Hilland consulted with Edward, supernatural forces, paired with the FBI agent’s sharp gut instincts, served as guiding lights in a variety of cases. Joining “Forbes True Crime” is former special agent Robert Hilland, co-author of “Chasing Evil,” a book he wrote with John Edward about their unlikely story.

On February 13th, 2017, 14-year-old Libby German and 13-year-old Abby Williams, two best friends, set off to hike Monon High Bridge Trail. One day later, the teenagers’ bodies were found less than a mile from the bridge. The case remained unsolved for years, despite Libby capturing video on her cell phone of the alleged killer, known as ‘Bridge Guy,’ following the girls and instructing them down the hill. More than five years after these murders haunted the small town, law enforcement arrested Richard Allen, who was charged and ultimately found guilty of their murders. Áine Cain and Kevin Greenlee, the hosts of “The Murder Sheet” podcast and authors of “Shadow of the Bridge: The Delphi Murders and the Dark Side of the American Heartland," joined “Forbes True Crime” to discuss the twists and turns of the heartbreaking case.
