I'm Collier Landry, subject of the Investigation Discovery documentary 'A Murder in Mansfield'. On New Year's Eve 1989, I awoke in the middle of the night to the sound of 2 loud thuds. The next morning my mother was missing and I knew she was no longer alive. No one believed me except one detective; 25 days later, police found my mother's body buried beneath the basement floor of my father's new home he purchased for his mistress. I had witnessed a murder, and at the age of 12, I testified against my father at his month-long murder trial. He is still incarcerated to this day. In this podcast, we will cover the unanswered questions behind murder, its motives, and moving on. I will take you on an inside journey into the mind of a sociopath, where I will read my father’s never-before-seen letters, from prison for the first time. We will examine how sometimes we don't always get the answers we seek, but we end up getting the answers we need, as we explore... Moving Past Murder.

35:41
Collier Landry and Brenda Fisher discuss one of Collier's Father's letters to him from prison. Collier becomes angry when he discovers how his father tries to manipulate and gaslight him.

53:14
Collier and Brenda welcome attorney and author David Robinson, Esq. to the program to share his thoughts on the current state of policing in the United States. With over 30 years of experience in law enforcement, and on both sides of the infamous "Blue Line", David's unique perspective elevates the current debate of Power VS Authority, and how much is too much? We explore how the curing of "the symptoms" does not cure "the disease", but rather further escalates the current crash course between the civilian population and those in uniform trying to keep the streets safe. Collier notes how the current situation seems to go far beyond race and/or gender, but rather comes down to one simple scenario: those who seek to maintain power versus those who seek to attain it. Also, Collier debates who would win in a K-Pop karaoke battle royale- the LAPD OR Team USA's Men's Water Polo team? Note: As always, this podcast contains colorful language that some of our listeners might not consider SFW, even when working from home...

Collier Landry and Brenda Fisher discuss as Collier reads his father's letter from prison in which he romanticizes how he met and fell in love with Collier's mother. The letter concludes with his father blaming the "Mansfield Crooks" for destroying his life and for his incarceration, yet never admits his own role in the murder of Collier's mother, which he was convicted for on June 24, 1990.

The episode concludes with Collier explaining all of his father's manipulation tactics, which are fully on display in this correspondence. YouTube video link: https://youtu.be/_D2CR3BsuW0Murder? Self Defense?: Todd Blevins' wife Rebecca E. Harris Blevins arrested for his murder in Lexington, Ohio on April 27th

Todd Blevins...murder or Self-Defense? Collier and Brenda discuss the April 27th arrest of Rebecca E. Harris Blevins for the murder of her husband Todd Blevins in Lexington, Ohio, a suburb of Collier's hometown of Mansfield. As some pointed out on Social Media, the details of the case share similarities with the murder of Collier's own mother by his father, Dr. John F. Boyle, Jr. Those include the body of Mr. Blevins being buried in the basement of his home and the accused being charged with "abuse of a corpse". Collier suspects that perhaps domestic violence had played a part in this tragedy and that maybe this murder is a case of self defense gone horribly wrong. More concerning to both Collier and Brenda are the children, who are most certain to be without both of their parents for the better part of their lives.

Collier shares with Brenda how his mother Noreen's cousin recently reached out after seeing his documentary "A Murder in Mansfield". When Collier seeks to find out more about his mother's childhood from her family, he is shutdown simply for being "his father's son". Collier remembers how he was shut down many years ago by both his mother AND father's family, who labeled him "guilty by association", despite Collier's crusade in aiding the investigation of his mother's murder, leading to his father's conviction for her murder. Collier reveals how this stigma has haunted him his entire life and seeks to understand if other "children of murderers" face the same hurdles in life.
