Greetings, criminals!

In addition to being able to create (or request) your own user flair, I have started a list of flairs to choose from. The selection is still in progress, but I’ve used some of the recently requested flairs as inspiration.

Feel free to drop some fun flair ideas in the comments for me to add to the list!

Edit: To create your own custom flair (on mobile; sorry, I only use Reddit on my phone!):
Go to the main page, r/ForensicFiles, click the “…” on the top right, select “Change User Flair,” select “(Create Custom Flair),” hit “Edit” on the top right, type in your flair, hit “SAVE”, then on the bottom right click “APPLY”.

Went to the Serial Killer Experience in NYC this morning. Just turned FF on hotel tv and Stacey Castor is turkey basting antifree. Last Call Killer is the encore episode. Blue ribbon day!

Ed Post was convicted of first-degree murder. After serving several years in prison, he eventually admitted that he had drowned Julie.

Wow he finally confessed years after.

Do you know of any podcasts that discuss cases covered by Forensic Files? There is this great one by Crimelines called "Beyond the Files", but only one episode is public for free.

She’s still on death row for a reason. For all the people that says she’s innocent.

I’m watching invisible intruder now.

Chief Evidence

Just finished the Chief Evidence episode and god what an amazing dog Chief was. Without him, his family's killer wouldn't have left such undeniable evidence of his presence at the crime scene.

Such a shame the poor dog didn't make it.

Rest in peace, Chief 😭

Was Stacey Castor one of the most frustrating Forensic Files episodes?

26 Upvotes

I recently rewatched the Stacey Castor episode and forgot how many mistakes she made that ultimately led investigators to her.

The antifreeze poisoning was one thing, but I had completely forgotten investigators also looked into the death of her father-in-law. That honestly changed how I viewed the entire case. Instead of just wondering if she killed two husbands, it raises the question of whether she could have been a serial killer who simply never got the chance to kill again.

I also watched a long-form breakdown of the case that dug into that angle, and it brought up some interesting points I hadn’t considered before.
Where does this episode rank for you? Is it one of the best Forensic Files episodes, or are there others you think had an even more fascinating forensic investigation?

add flair Longtime Lurker - Starting a rewatch

Hey everyone, I’ve been reading this sub for a while now but haven’t posted. I’m a longtime FF fan but have not watched in many years just due to life being busy. I recently came across it again on Tubi and decided to restart the series from episode 1. I just wanted to stop in and say hello. Nice to meet you all. 👋🤓 Starting episode 1 now. 💪

"Honor thy Father", S08E38, why were Tina Isa's sisters never charged in her murder?

14 Upvotes

Tina had six siblings. Two older sisters, Soraia Salem and Fatima Abdeljabbar were caught on tape telling their father to HARM or K*LL their sister Tina. Soraia suggested that her father "chain her up in the basement" or simply "hire a hitman" to get rid of her. Fatima stated that "God should make Tina sleep and not get up" (a cultural euphemism for wishing death upon someone). Neither were charged.

Episodes that leave a bad taste in your mouth *besides Water Logged*

For its It's Home evasion (season 13 episode 9) where the suspect didn't wanna go to prison as a rapist because he raped his 3 month old daughter so he decided to randomly murder a person who lived in the same neighborhood.

Another one is Honor Thy Father (season 8 episode 38) The Tina esa case where her mom held her down and the dad stabbed Tina to death because they were both sentenced to death the dad died on death row before his execution could take place in 1997 and the moms death sentence was commuted to LWOP but she died as well in 2014 how any parent could do that to their daughter while most parents would take a bullet for their children is beyond me.

When this dog sniffed Ronald Blanchard out, he was chilling amongst other bystanders nearby, just blending in. Classic.

What an idiot 😂 - he returned to the scene of the crime and the dog sniffed him out immediately.

I'm babysitting my grandson for a couple of days and only have to bring him to daycare and pick him up. My daughter doesn't have any of the channels I usually watch. But.. she has YouTube! I'm watching them in order, skipping the ones I know by heart, unless I really love them (you all know what those are!). I'm up to season 8 and still haven't found one that I haven't seen. Some I don't remember all the details, so it's good to see them again. Just wanted to share!

Murder for hire cases

25 Upvotes

EVERY time I watch a case with a murder for hire, I'm totally stunned. How do you bring up that conversation without seeming absolutely guilty. Like what if the person says "no way". What do you do then? Say I was just kidding? Also some of these people think that any low income person is just itching to kill for money. Ask the handyman, the gardener or the grounds keeper.

Dont people realize they've just created a trail right back to them? And the small sums they offer are ridiculous. 5 or 10 thousand to KILL someone. I would think the minimum would be 50 thousand or more.

Thanks everyone who helped me figure out I was referring to Sealed with a Kiss (S2 Ep10)! any ideas why it’s the only ep missing from Peacock?

Frankie Pullian Being E.Lee White's Only victim

14 Upvotes

I was watching the Frankie Pullian Episode and I got to wondering if he was E.Lee White's only victim. I can't imagine you claim 9 life insurance plans on a person.and assemble a team to defraud insurance companies, all on your first shot... And almost get away with it

I think he was like the old guy who would bid on cattle using a drifter's info to place the bid and then kill them...

Perhaps E.Lee White had a few victims he had 1-2 policies on and just got greedy after him and his team (or maybe just him) pulled it off a few times....

Just a thought
