Rate ShowLaura is the best!!!
She is so knowledgeable regarding her topic and coersive control. This latest show about Britney Spears and how women have been portrait as crazies, unbalanced, neurotic, "nervous" beings, that need others for being "managed". The fact that others can tell you can't get pregnant is a violation of God's natural law. Our own physical, generic make up is to procreate and give birth. This is only opening the gates of hell for the government to impose rules or laws that would subject us. We are not only seen as inferior but as property. This episode was on POINT!

Competence & Vigor
This podcast is not for entertainment, but for enlightenment on the way society treats victims and survivors and silence them. It is very empowering to get a different, competent and refreshing perspective on how to view and treat victims and crimes and acts of oppression and coercive control🙏 thank you so much💕

Deconstructs crimes therapeutically
This podcast uses current research and up to date knowledge/praxis to understand crimes and the experiences of victims, and the pathology of offenders. The way Laura explains and deconstructs what has happened is in itself, therapeutic. I really appreciate being able to listen to this.

You are amazing. Keep up the excellent work of speaking out about Femicide, misogyny, victim-blaming and toxic statements by ill-informed, narrow minded coppers. Women weren't put on this earth for "man". If not for us none of them would have ever been born. They need to be grateful, not hateful. It's when I hear of all the millions of murders done by males that I begin to believe in the death penalty in all countries worldwide, most especially when guilt is proven beyond reasonable doubt. Death for murder of women, and castration for rape.

Vocab
Laura, you are too intelligent to repeatedly use the word ‘opined’ in your podcasts. Your investigation into PS and the YR case is fascinating and I look forward to it every week, but please be more cognizant of using ‘opined’.

The Best!
With almost 20 yrs in law enforcement and now retired, I find most podcast boring , overly dramatic, or just plain bad!
However I find Crime Analyst to be detailed, specific, and honest. No drama, no fluff!
Not only the best true crime podcasts, but one of the top podcast to listen too!!
5 stars!!!

Laura Richards does a service to us all
With her analysis of crimes, focussing on the victims and showing how police can go wrong by following common prejudices rather than listening to the victims, consulting professional profilers and reading the scene factually, Laura Richards does a service to us all.
She cleans up with all our prejudices, gives victims a voice and hopefully improves police thinking as well as how victims are treated and trusted.

Holy crappoly
Facts:
The pace is fast
The information is coming at you quickly
Laura shares a LOT.
Friggin love this podcast!! It’s revealed levels of misogyny I held that I wasn’t even aware of and I think EVERYONE should hear this message. (It is graphic, there are crime details so it’s not “for everyone”)
I feel like a freaking rockstar (as a woman) after listening to this!!
Womens for the win and Laura as the winner!!

Makes you think
I really appreciate Laura’s refreshing view on an offender/perpetrator narrative of crime.
Working in the justice sector this has made me think more about how I talk about crimes and the view point of the victim becomes the centre. Love your work Laura. And it’s a great companion podcast to all the real crime podcasts out there

Excellent
An excellent, compassionate, thoroughly researched podcast. Kudos to Laura for holding the line by honoring the victims over sensationalizing the perpetrator.

The work and research that has gone into this podcast is astounding.
I cannot recommend this Podcast enough
In reframing the narrative away from the perpetrator and focusing on the victims and victimology is so refreshing and should be the method the media reports on such matters going forward.
This made me think about issues that had never occurred to me before, the sexist and misogynistic tropes we have all lived with for so long and we shouldn’t have to, anymore!
Thank you, Laura! keep up the excellent work, on this subject and in your current day advocacy work, you’re truly an inspiration.

Incredible Podcast
Laura is a force that does not stop. We need more like her. Not only riveting but necessary. Why aren’t there more people bringing these types of issues forward ?
Women are not valued or respected in this society and it’s tragic. Thank you Laura.

Tells it like it is
I love listening to Laura's analysis of how criminals could have been stopped if only authorities would change their ways. Laura doesn't just talk about what could have/should have been done, but fights to change policies and legislation to protect victims, especially women and children. She's a real champion

A must-listen podcast for everyone!!
I can’t speak highly enough of Laura and her efforts in the world of victim advocacy and law reform. Her empathy for victims is at the forefront of everything she does. We are so lucky to have Laura working tirelessly towards changing laws and striving to make real, lasting change for women and children. Thankfully, through Laura’s podcast we are able to learn from her expertise first-hand and benefit from hearing these tough topics discussed with such tact and experience. Thank you for all you do, Laura!

As a fan of true crime but also forensic psychology this podcast ticks all of the boxes. You feel as though you are solving crimes in real time and absorbing Laura's expertise as you go. Disturbing subject matter is dealt with in a sympathetic and analytical manner as opposed to the sensationalism that ordinarily surrounds murderers.

This podcast is so informative, taking complex subject matter breaking it down into manageable and understandable information. Laura is masterful, she cares deeply about the victims and their loved ones and that comes across in the show. I love how uncompromising she is about the way we speak about women, how victims of crime and coercive control and also perpetrators are described. I thought I understood this subject but I have learnt so much and at times it is uncomfortable as she confronts you head on with things that I personally took for granted. Now I see things differently and how the victims of PS were not valued and that women died unnecessarily. Cannot say enough about how good this is, yes it is entertainment but with the heart of an activist and Laura's relentless campaigning is inspirational.

Voice to the victims
True crime has capitalized on sensationalizing the murderers, not the murdered.
Laura Richards puts the emphasis on telling the victims stories and it is honestly the only true crime I want to listen to!
