Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

When Linda Brown misses the first day of school after winter break, loved ones know something is wrong. Linda would never let her students down.
 
Linda is a beloved special education teacher at Robert Healy Elementary School in the Bridgeport neighborhood of Chicago, happily married to Antwon Brown. Chicago PD is desperately searching for the missing school teacher.
 
The special educator was last seen by her husband on Friday evening and by neighbors Saturday morning. Linda misses a weekly appointment that day, and isn’t answering her phone. Concern turns to fear when Linda hasn’t returned home on Sunday.
 
Though Antwon last saw Linda Friday night, neighbors say they spotted her Saturday morning near their home.
Linda’s purse, with her wallet and phone, is missing from the home, and her phone rings when called.
 
Family members and friends retrace the teacher’s last known steps, but don’t find any leads. 
 
Her sister’s husband, Lorenzo, tells “Crime Stories” staff that Linda’s vehicle has been located at 35th and Lake Park. Security footage also shows her walking across a pedestrian bridge alone on January 3, at around 3 a.m., according to the husband. 
 
Linda is 5 feet tall, 130 pounds, with brown hair and eyes, last seen wearing a long, puffy black coat with shiny Ugg-style boots.
 
Authorities are searching the area where her blue Honda Civic, plate number CX57470, was located on Wednesday afternoon.
 
Anyone with information on Linda Brown should contact Chicago PD SVU detectives at 312-747-8380.

OK Man Kill-Shots Cancer-Surviving Granny While "Testing Out" New Christmas Glock| Crime Alert 6AM 01.08.2026

Nick Reiner appears in court to enter a plea to the killings of his parents.
 
While Reiner already had an opportunity to do so in December, defense attorney Alan Jackson asked to delay the arraignment for a true chance to speak with his client, whom he had only had about half an hour before his initial appearance.
 
Just ahead of his arraignment, Nick Reiner is moved off of suicide watch at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility. Reiner no longer has to wear a padded smock and is now allowed a yellow shirt with his blue uniform pants.
 
Reiner isn’t completely off the hook, still held alone in High Observation Housing until a judge orders he can move elsewhere. Even if Reiner is released from HOH, he will still be closely monitored and have a cell to himself.
 
Experts say Nick Reiner trading a suicide smock for a standard uniform is a tactical victory for the District Attorney, preventing Reiner’s attorneys from arguing he’s too catatonic to participate in his own defense.
 
The court will soon determine if this perceived stability is a result of medication or a genuine return to legal competence.
 
Prosecutors will pounce on Reiner’s statements about cycles of homelessness and rehabilitation, painting him as someone who has long operated outside conventional stability, then use Being Charlie against him—the film demonstrating Reiner’s high level of self-awareness and creative agency.
 
The outcome of the Reiner trial may set a new standard in California law: how mental disability is weighed against special allegations.

Prominent California Farmer Pleads Not Guilty To Fatally Shooting Estranged Wife | Crime Alert 6AM 01.07.2026

Private investigator Steve Fischer tells Nancy Grace that a chainsaw was found in the home rented by D4vd, and the chainsaw was still unwrapped.
 
PI Steve Fischer claims he also found a "burn cage" inside the home rented for Burke by his manager. Employed by the property owner to determine what took place in his house, Fischer uncovered items still in their original packaging that were unused.
 
The incinerator is illegal in Los Angeles, delivered to the residence under a fake name, and claims to reach a temperature of 1,600 degrees.
 
The LA police department Chief Jim McDonnell is remaining silent about the Burke investigation, saying public statements could "potentially jeopardize the case."
 
The LAPD obtained a court order to keep the medical examiner's full autopsy findings sealed to maintain the integrity of the investigation.
 
David Michael Burke will likely be indicted in connection with the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.

Anna Maciejewska arrives in the United States from her homeland to continue her education at the University of Louisville in Kentucky, holding two bachelor's degrees from Warsaw University for mathematics and computer science, specializing in actuarial mathematics.

15-Year-Old Boy Charged With Uber Driver’s Murder During Carjacking | Crime Alert 6AM 01.05.26

A new investigation into the case of Samuel Haskell IV, the son of former Hollywood agent Samuel Haskell Sr.
 
He was accused of murdering his wife and in-laws in November 2023. Now, new entities claim they are owed hundreds of thousands of dollars from the estate.
 
The "money claims" in news reports relate to the financial situation of the household, specifically that Haskell's wife was the primary financial provider and paid the majority of the family's expenses, including a $7,000 monthly mortgage, while he was allegedly unemployed or underemployed.
 
Key details regarding the financial aspects and the case suggest that the victim, Mei Li Haskell, worked multiple jobs and was the main earner for the family, supporting her husband, their three children, and her parents, who lived with them.
 
The case never went to trial. Samuel Haskell Jr. died by suicide in his jail cell in July 2025, days before his preliminary hearing was set to begin.
 
The origins of the case stem from a group of day laborers hired by Sam Haskell IV to remove three bags of what they are told are rocks from his garage. The men described the bags as "soft and soggy," with each weighing about 50 pounds.
 
A block away from Haskell's house, the workers opened up the bags and said they saw body parts. The men returned the bag to Haskell and returned his money. Haskell played it off, telling the workers that what they actually saw were Halloween props. The men drove immediately to the police.
 
The men try to report what they have seen to the police, but they are turned away. The men went to the Highway Patrol station first but were told to go to the Los Angeles Police Department.
 
The LAPD Topanga Station tells the men to go back outside and call 911 from the courtyard. In the meantime, the police receive another call about human remains. A homeless man, digging through the dumpster looking for recyclables, finds human remains.
 
Inside the dumpster, the LAPD found a torso in a bag. The investigation provided detectives with enough information to lead them to Samuel Haskell IV's residence.
