The Outlier Podcast

Today, we're diving into the critical police missteps that changed the course of three infamous cases in recent history. I’m joined by former LAPD homicide detective and host of LA’s Crime Scene Live, Don Tabak. With decades of experience investigating complex cases, Don brings his expert lens to our discussion on the crucial mistakes made in the O.J. Simpson case involving Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, the controversial death of Officer John O’Keefe and the implications for Karen Read, and the high-stakes interrogation of Brendan Dassey in the Teresa Halbach case. From botched crime scenes to questionable interrogation tactics, we’re uncovering how these errors may have impacted justice—and what could have been done differently.Episode Notes and Disclaimers:We love the police and are so thankful that they work so hard in keeping us safe. We felt that these blunders needed to be highlighted.Opinion and Speculation has been expressed throughout this podcast, we encourage you to do your own research as well.https://www.dontabak.net/https://illusionmagiclounge.com/show/don-tabak-crime-scene-live-nov-24-2024/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jncS4ErGFbM
