Killing Us Softly and Quietly: Female Serial Killers in the 21st Century
Sunday May 31, 2026 9:00am - 10:00am PDT
In today’s world, many think we know what a serial killer looks like. We’re wrong.
While most true crime fans know Aileen Wuornos — the serial killer who inspired Monster — her infamy stems in part from how unusual she was: one of the few female serial killers whose predatory behavior and violent methods more closely aligned with the traditional male profile. She is the exception, not the rule.
Most female serial killers don’t fit the mold. They blend in and kill quietly.
In this chilling, revealing session, renowned criminologist Dr. Casey Jordan dives deep into the typologies of female serial killers, pulling back the curtain on a largely hidden world, where motives and methods are often subtle, pragmatic, and difficult to detect.
Through modern case studies and evolving criminal profiles, Dr. Jordan reveals how female serial killers operate, why they’re so difficult to catch and how many may still be out there - unseen, unsuspected, and unstoppable.

BIA Missing & Murdered Unit: Turning Mission into Measurable Impact
Sunday May 31, 2026 11:45am - 12:45pm PDT
Across Indian Country, the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People (MMIP) continues to devastate families, communities, and Tribal Nations. Generations of challenging circumstances, gaps in data, jurisdictional complexity, and under resourced investigative systems have contributed to a crisis that demands sustained, coordinated, and culturally grounded action. The Bureau of Indian Affairs Missing and Murdered Unit (BIA MMU) was created to meet this moment with urgency, accountability, and a clear mandate: bring resolution to MMIP cases and deliver justice for Indigenous people.

This session introduces “Turning Mission into Measurable Impact,” a conversation designed to strengthen how MMU personnel, Tribal partners, and interagency collaborators translate mission driven values into operational results. Participants will learn how the MMU is reshaping investigative approaches, improving data integrity, and building collaborative frameworks that honor Tribal sovereignty while accelerating case resolution.

Sunday May 31, 2026 2:15pm - 3:15pm PDT
Join former Orange County, California Deputy District Attorney, now author and ABC News Contributor as he uses AI to bring a little-known case to ‘back to life’.  In August of 2006 1 man was killed and 4 wounded in a drive-by shooting in Costa Mesa, California. The case garnered little media attention, let alone a podcast or documentary about it, but Murphy was still tasked with prosecuting the shooter and get justice for the victim.  Using AI to generate images Matt has recreated the timeline, the suspect, the victim and their family to give this case the attention it deserves.
