267: Bonus from Patreon - Every Shot He Took, I Felt It (How I Caught My Killer)

Detective Sergeant Anthony Rykowski joins Ellyn and Joey for a discussion about Karen Read, corruption in law enforcement, police ethics and more! We first met Anthony when we were recapping "Disappeared". He was featured on Episode 111 - Lost Angel: The Disappearance of Angel Garcia. We were taken with his strong commitment to the case and justice.  Since then, he’s become the go-to for every question we have about that law and trust us - we have a lot. So naturally he had many thoughts on the awful investigation the Canton Police did on the death of John O'Keefe. We are so grateful to hear his thoughts on what SHOULD have happened that night. 

As part of our dark week due to the holiday, we have a special surprise for you all! This is a bonus episode, previously exclusive to our Patreon page and originally published on 2/27/25. Join now and get 9 episodes of How I Caught My Killer, plus a ton of other bonus content, at patreon.com/ithinknot or join Apple Subscriptions and get all of our bonus content directly on the app!  When police find Atlanta rapper Rahim Grant gunned down in his apartment along with the critically injured mother of his child, the only way to learn who pulled the trigger - and why - could be locked in a series of shocking videos on Rahim's phone.

On this episode of the rundown, both the DIDDY trial and the KAREN READ trials come to an end. We talk closing statements in the Diddy trial and all of the post trial circus show activities in the Karen Read trial.

So you both can giggle about the same things at the water cooler. Are there still water coolers? Who cares, we’re getting cheese fries.
