Caitlin Rother - A Serial Killer’s Deadly Compulsions2 days agoWhen Wayne Adam Ford walked into the Humboldt County Sheriff's Office in November 1998 with a woman's body part in his jacket pocket, the 36-year-old truck driver wasn't a suspect in any crime. After a lengthy investigation spanning four California counties and a sensational trial, he was convicted of the torture and murder of four women. His first victim, whom he dismembered, would remain unidentified for 25 years. While serving honourably in the Marine Corps, Ford had learned life-saving techniques that gave him structure and purpose. But a severe head injury worsened pre-existing emotional problems, rendering him unable to suppress his dark sexual impulses. Knowing he would kill again, he enlisted his brother's help to turn himself in. Award-winning investigative journalist Caitlin Rother drew on previously sealed testimony and interviewed key players in the case, including Ford's brother and father, to write this intimate and psychologically resonant narrative. Extensively updated with the inside details of how Ford's first victim was recently identified through DNA testing and forensic genealogy, this classic true crime story continues to haunt us.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Joe Francis - Girls Gone Wild4 days agoOf all the late 90s and 2000s cultural phenomena to come under recent scrutiny – the Pam and Tommy sex tape, Woodstock 99, Abercrombie & Fitch, over-inflated Silicon Valley startups, Britney Spears, Janet Jackson’s “wardrobe malfunction” – Girls Gone Wild is arguably the least surprisingly toxic. Started in 1997 by a fratty entrepreneur named Joe Francis, Girls Gone Wild sold VHS and then DVD videos of co-ed women, almost always intoxicated, baring their breasts on some hedonistic spring break trip in exchange for free underwear or hats.Francis dominated the soft-core porn market in the early internet days; millions of people purchased footage of the girls – often barely over 18 and sometimes younger, predominantly white, thin and blonde – getting badgered by cameramen to take more shots, take their tops off, make out with their friends, use sex toys on themselves. Obviously, this has not aged well. (Nor was it without controversy at the time.)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Roger Rapoport - Searching for Patty Hearst: A True Crime Novel Nov 20, 2023Roger Rapoport joins Ed Opperman to discuss one of the most controversial kidnapping cases of the twentieth century; Patty Hearst.On the night that Patty Hearst  was kidnapped in 1974, journalist Roger D. Rapoport, was a short drive  away in his El Cerrito home. He quickly became one of the primary  reporters covering the saga as it unfolded in real time. His reporting  gave local and national readers a window into one of the most bizarre  and polarizing crimes in U.S. history. Now, fifty years later, he has  written a novel, Searching for Patty Hearst,  that draws heavily from that time. In this compelling new book, he  explores alternative theories of the crime and delves into the complex  psychology of many of the key actors in a drama that kept the country  riveted. Using the techniques of fiction, Rapoport gives voice to much  of the story that fell outside of the bounds of journalistic coverage.  "I wrote this novel because I believed the American public deserved  nothing but the truth," he says. With a wry sensibility and insider  knowledge that Rapoport is one of the few people to possess, Searching for Patty Hearst,  goes beyond the tabloid headlines to tell the story in all its depth.  Rapoport takes on such questions as: Why did Patty participate in the  kidnapping of a high school student hours before six of the SLA  kidnappers were killed in a firefight with the Los Angeles police  department? Did celebrity coroner Thomas Noguchi, whom Rapoport  interviewed, mishandle the autopsies of six SLA victims? Why did Patty's  lawyers dump her fiancée Steve Weed as a key witness at her trial at  the last minute? It's often said that fiction can offer insights into  the truth that reporting can't. If that is the case, the story of Patty  Hearst, the SLA, and the kidnapping that carved them into the American  psyche just may be told for the first time with Searching for Patty Hearst.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
