Crime House Daily

In a courtyard where kids gathered to play, resentment turned deadly. Ajike “AJ” Owens had spent years navigating a neighbor who hurled slurs, made threats, and called police anytime the children stepped outside. After that neighbor injured AJ’s son with a roller skate, AJ walked to her door demanding answers. Susan Lorincz responded with a bullet fired through a locked door. Katie breaks down the case that rejected “stand your ground,” the 25-year sentence, and Netflix’s “The Perfect Neighbor” documentary, which used bodycam footage to show the truth behind the tragedy.

A dream backpacking adventure in Southeast Asia ends in tragedy when free shots at a busy Laos hostel leave multiple tourists critically ill and three young women dead, including 19-year-old Australians Holly Morton Bowles and Bianca Jones, while grieving families fight for justice amid silence from local authorities. Later, Katie examines the haunting case of 35-year-old Montana contractor Dustin Kjersem, whose girlfriend discovered his mutilated body in a remote campsite. She initially believed he had been mauled by a bear, only for investigators to uncover a human attacker, white supremacist ties, and a jury that rejected Daren Abbey’s shifting self defense story.

In tonight’s Night Watch, Katie breaks down one of Texas’ most haunting cases: the 1991 Yogurt Shop Murders. Four teenage girls were bound, assaulted, shot, and left in a burning yogurt shop, launching a massive task force and decades of fear in the community. Katie traces how investigators turned to the Reid Technique, extracted detailed confessions from four young men, and secured convictions despite a total lack of physical evidence tying them to the scene.  Then, the story flips as new Supreme Court rulings, advanced DNA testing, and a renewed cold case investigation dismantle those confessions and point toward a traveling serial predator. Thirty-four years later, a shell casing, Y-STR testing, genealogy, and a suicide weapon finally converge on one name: Robert Eugene Brashers.

In Oklahoma, Katie examines how teenage offender Jesse Butler went from facing nearly a lifetime in prison for brutal attacks on two girls to serving only counseling and community service under youthful offender status, a decision that has neighbors, lawmakers, and classmates calling the system corrupt. Then the focus shifts to Halifax, where Mike Smith, best known as Bubbles on “Trailer Park Boys,” is now under a sexual assault charge for an incident prosecutors say happened in 2017, while production companies, fans, and the alleged victim all await the next move in court.

Tonight, Katie revisits the Caroline Flack case from the beginning, tracing her rise through British television to her dream job hosting Love Island UK, and then the December 2019 incident that changed everything. As CPS and the Metropolitan Police pushed forward with a domestic abuse prosecution and the tabloid press portrayed Caroline as a monster, her support system watched her unravel in real time. Katie looks at the evidence, the later findings about serious failings in how the case was handled, and the way Caroline’s story has been reframed by her family in “Search for the Truth,” raising urgent questions about mental health, media ethics and accountability.
