Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

Saturday night, 10:15 p.m., Knox County, Tennessee, 911 gets a report of shots fired on Stanley Road.
 
When deputies arrive, a woman claiming her "crazy ex" is on the property points officers toward a wooded area. Announcing their presence with shouts of "Sheriff's Office," a defiant voice from the woods curses the deputies. Someone begins throwing rocks.
 
The dark, wooded area provides cover for the suspect, who claims to have a gun.
 
Deputy Swanger can't get a clear view. Swanger orders the suspect to "show me your hands." As he enters the brush, he is met with an ambush of rocks. Swanger is hit full force on the head and falls to the ground.
 
Deputies rush to Swanger, who is "knocked out," and drag him from the woods to safety. A bloody gash is clearly visible. Deputy Swanger is unsteady on his feet.
 
Swanger is admitted into the ICU at the University of Tennessee Medical Center, where he ends up on a ventilator in a coma.
 
The suspect, 44-year-old Christopher Michael Hensley, is caught and charged.

Virginia Giuffre's posthumous memoir, "Nobody’s Girl", details how Jeffrey Epstein regularly boasted he could blackmail powerful men using videos of them abusing young women. The threat always there that he could destroy their careers and livelihood. 
 
The book also describes in excruciating detail how Ghislaine Maxwell recruited her into Epstein’s sex-trafficking ring. She discusses being ‘lent out’ to ‘scores of wealthy, powerful people’ including a foreign dignitary, who made her think she would ‘die a sex slave.’

Son Charged After Roasting Mom's Corpse in Fire Pit| Crime Alert 6AM 10.23.2025

Mladen Trifunovic, the owner of the home Burke was renting for $20,000 a month, has hired private investigator Steve Fischer to try and find out what was happening in the home he owns.
 
Fischer was hired shortly after a forced-search entry search warrant was served at the home. Nobody was home when police served a search warrant, and no paperwork was left behind to indicate what was being sought or what was taken. Fischer is helping provide additional information for law enforcement and make sure nothing is missed in the search for what happened to Celeste.
 
The LAPD says Celeste had been deceased for weeks before being discovered in Burke's Tesla. Private investigator Steve Fischer says he has seen surveillance video from neighbor homes and knows exactly when the Tesla was last moved and who moved it to the location from where it was towed, in very late July, but cannot reveal that yet.
 
The Tesla owned by Burke had been his daily driver for a long time, regularly getting the car cleaned inside and out. However, when the Tesla was towed, it was dirty with body damage.
 
PI Fischer says it looks like the car had been "off-road" in the desert with wheel wells beat up and a huge dent in the back. While his former daily driver sits dirty by the curb for weeks, Burke keeps a clean, red Tesla in the garage.
 
Surveillance cameras in the Hollywood Hills build a complete timeline showing when Burke's Tesla was parked on Bluebird Avenue, who parked it, and whether anything was placed in the vehicle after it was parked.
 
There is also no evidence indicating Celeste's body was transferred into the Tesla AFTER it was parked on the street.

Missing 4-Year-Old Oakley Carlson Declared Dead Four Years Later | Crime Alert 6AM 10.22.25

Kada Scott's remains have been found in a wooded area behind an abandoned school in East Germantown. 
 
Kada, 23, was last seen shortly after arriving for a shift at an assisted living facility in Chestnut Hill. 
 
Police began searching the area on Saturday, Oct. 18, near the vacant Ada H. Lewis Middle School for Scott after receiving a "very specific" anonymous tip at around 10 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 17, authorities said.
 
Police previously searched the area of the school and arboretum in the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia but reported only finding some physical evidence, without commenting on what evidence was uncovered. Community members voice anger and frustration at police while gathering behind the crime scene tape during the search on Saturday, saying they could have found the body sooner.
 
Investigators discover a person of interest. As the investigation continued, police determined 23-year-old Keon King of Dover, Delaware, is now a suspect. 
 
Keon King had a criminal record prior to his alleged involvement in Scott’s kidnapping. Investigators say King kidnapped and assaulted another victim earlier in the year.
