Her voice is lovely to listen to, excellent podcast

So insightful
I’ve been a faithful listener of Real Crime Profile since the beginning and I am thrilled to here only your voice and POV! Your thoughts and years of experience have educated me into deeper thinking. Can’t wait for the next episode every week! Keep up the good fight!

Laura is my favourite!
Honestly Laura, I think you are so so cool. I just love listening to how to analyse things, you nail it every time!! I love your podcast and all the work you do! Always a fan!

First class podcast
Just finished listening to the Gabby Petito podcast & even though I knew a lot about this, I learnt so much from listening to Laura. It’s quite clear she has read every spit & cough of this case & isn’t just reading from Google. Excellent, thorough & never forgets the victim.

Awesome Podcast!
When I need accurate and thorough information ..Laura Richards and Crime Analyst podcast is the first place I look. I love this podcast because it’s not just someone reading and researching, Laura has actually “battled in the trenches” so to speak. Loads of respect!!

Incredible Insights and Expertise
I've followed Laura since her involvement in The Case of JonBenét Ramsey in 2016. Now, I'm blown away by her expertise and depth of knowledge on the Laura Richards Crime Analyst Podcast. Her attention to detail is unparalleled, and her insights have opened my eyes to new perspectives. It's like receiving training from the world's top-ranking officer and detective. The podcast covers various crime and criminal psychology topics, with each episode being incredibly informative and thought-provoking. I eagerly anticipate each new release. I highly recommend the Laura Richards Crime Analyst Podcast to anyone interested in crime or criminal psychology. It's an outstanding podcast that deserves five stars

No one better than Laura Richards
Laura Richards has been an unbelievable resource in educating me about coercive control and the subtle ways leakage can reveal true motivations, as well as the imbalance in gender and crime. After years of referring to domestic violence, I have pivoted and Male violence is now in my lexicon . If you listen to crime analysis podcasts, this (and Real Crime Profile) are the ones to follow, and share.

Podcast with Integrity
Brilliant podcast. Crafted and delivered with integrity, whilst maintaining the focus on victims and upholding their dignity.

Amazing podcast
I am a layperson who has learned so much from Laura’s work. She tirelessly deconstructs, analyzes and educates for free on this podcast, Real Crime Profile, IG and now also on Youtube. Thank you Laura for teaching us about the many different facets of coersive control and so much more.

Brilliant and super interesting
Laura has taught me so much about the subtle signs of coercive control and what it means in relationships. In my opinion, she is a valuable resource for looking at any crime that involves violence against women. She breaks open the patriarchy that we have all come to accept and that has harmed women. We need more people like her.

The gold standard
I’ve recently discovered Laura’s podcast and I am slowly working my way through the back catalogue. Laura’s attention to detail in her analysis of cases I thought I knew about has blown my mind. Laura is the gold standard of criminal analysis. Imagine if all law enforcement had access to this level of expertise. How many women would be still alive today. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

Top Tier Real Crime and Victim Advocacy Podcast
There’s no better real crime podcast out there. In depth, expert, critical analysis of serious crime cases. Putting the victim at the centre as it should be and holding the media, the police and the general public accountable for the biases and prejudices that often hinder criminal investigations. Laura has been doing amazing work for decades and I’m truly grateful I discovered her podcast as it’s been an eye opener making me aware of biases I didn’t realise I had and that are so pervasive in our culture. A truly essential listen, law enforcement especially should be paying attention.

I wish there were more Laura's in the world
You can feel how much Laura cares about her work and all the victims/survivors discussed. Laura's passion and empathy are unmatchable. She speaks the truth even when it's not pretty. Thank you Laura! You're a warrior 💜

Incredible, knowledge and skilled professional
Laura is a knowledgeable professional with many years of experience helping victims of domestic violence. Her work helps bring light to this challenging and often misunderstood topic. I like to listen to her discussion about crime and how we can prevent it. I wish we had more Lauras in every community able to help educate others and protect victims.

Thank you!
I feel like no one cares about women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ people, but Laura gives me hope even when I’m tired. I’ve experienced coercive control and abuse and I’m so glad people like Laura are talking about it. If we don’t talk about no one will. Thanks for a great and empathetic podcast.

Warrior training
I think this podcast is the best example of how we educate ourselves to become warriors against misogyny and domestic violence. Bravo!

Best and most informative podcast ever
I absolutely love Real Crime Profile and all of Laura’s work but this podcast is my favorite and the most relevant to the work that I do. I love how the victims always come first and the care, compassion, and understanding that Laura always gives to victims and families while equally not allowing perpetrators to get away with things. I couldn’t recommend this podcast anymore highly for people that want a victim-centric view on crimes and actually want to work to better themselves and their work. As a trauma therapist this show helps me constantly to shape my work, ideas, and the specific language that I use.

Absolute champion!
I would give this podcast 10 out of 10 stars if I could. Just so good and she just keeps going amidst all the ridiculous naysayers out there. Well done! What a brave and fabulous soul.

Listen Now
Laura is brilliant, thoughtful and insightful. I’d encourage everyone to listen to these difficult but important conversations. She is such an advocate for those who have been systematically silenced.

Laura is the best!!!
Laura is so very good! I love her passion. She is extremely intelligent and so informative. I am learning about coercive control. Learning about cases the media doesn’t report about. She has the most soothing voice yet being so professional and matter of fact and I love it all! My favorite podcast! Thank you for being the voice of these women and educating us all of these behaviors. Give her a listen. Xoxo

Very in depth analisys of cases told with respect toward the victims
Also I like the guests and their respective expertise. I can‘t recommend this podcast enough

Fascinating - angry making
I can’t stop listening as Laura unpicks events and behaviours leading up to the tragic events she covers in these podcasts. Women and girls loose their lives needlessly at the hands of violent men. And the system in place to “protect” them, simply doesn’t. Laura’s insights to how these cases happened brings dignity back to the victims and highlights the work that needs to be done to truly protect women and children.

Warrior for women!
You always tell it like it is! I look forward and enjoy the insight you bring to us! I hope to contact you once I have more info on a 19 year old girl that was run over multiple this by her BF. Police arrived she said she jumped out of the truck. She later died and police closed the case! I know she will teach me what I need to know to help bring the truth forward!!

Ultra Professional Lifesaving Analysis
Without a doubt, Laura is the most professional and the most compassionate crime analyst. There is a major goal behind every episode of her podcasts and YouTube videos and that is to protect the public from intruders, to protect women from the unimaginable by educating them through fascinating analysis of cases that have concerned people globally. I am personally grateful for the time and efforts she invests in these podcasts.

Public Service Expert
Laura provides a public service as an expert in coercive control and an advocate for women. Her experience and passion come through loud and clear as she retells victim stories and alerts listeners to legal and policing pitfalls. I love that she addresses her audience as “lovely listeners”. It adds warmth and personality to the serious topics that she discusses.

Binged !
I’ve just discovered this podcast , not sure how but loving it . Have binged it over the weekend and am fully engaged . Thanks for a crime series that’s not sensationalist 🙏❤️
She’s taught me so much. I love that she honors the victims and makes prevention key.

5 Stars
Loving the positive female representation of true crime in this podcast.

Amazing
Love her- she is so qualified, and so intelligent, she speaks with clarity, directness and strength, she teaches us, as she invites us to come along, because she’s not stopping. She has a job to do.
