Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

Jordan DeMay was a popular, well-liked sports star at his Michigan high school. The 17-year-old took his own life just hours after someone demanded money to keep a compromising photo from being sent to his parents and friends. The extortionists, a group of men from Nigeria who have targeted more than 100 children and adults, initially contacted DeMay over a hacked social media account, posing as a teen girl who enticed Jordan into sending a nude photo. The sextortionist then flipped the script, pressuring DeMay to pay to keep the photo private. The teen sent everything he had, totaling $300. The perpetrators wanted more. Police say the entire sequence of events appeared to have taken about six hours, until deputies responded to the DeMay home just after 7:30 a.m. The family is now hopeful Jordan will receive justice. FBI agents, with help from Nigerian law enforcement tracked down the three men behind the international sextortion ring. Samuel Ogoshi, 22, and Samson Ogoshi, 20, have now been extradited from Lagos to Michigan to face charges related to sextortion and Demay's death. Authorities are still working to extradite a third suspect, Ezekiel Robert. Samuel Ogoshi faces a minimum of 50 years behind bars, his younger brother's charges carrying a minimum of 20 years in prison.  Joining Nancy Grace Today:   John DeMay- Jordan DeMay's father  David Tafuri- International lawyer, partner at ArentFox law firm,  https://www.afslaw.com/attorneys/david-tafuri, @DavidTafuri Dr. Angela Arnold-Psychiatrist, Atlanta GA, AngelaArnoldMD.com, Expert in the Treatment of Pregnant/Postpartum Women, Former Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, Obstetrics and Gynecology: Emory University, Former Medical Director of The Psychiatric Ob-Gyn Clinic at Grady Memorial Hospital, Voted My Buckhead’s Best Psychiatric Practice of 2023 Irv Brandt - Senior Inspector, US Marshals Service International Investigations Branch, Chief Inspector, DOJ Office of International Affairs; Author: “SOLO SHOT: CURSE OF THE BLUE STONE” available on Amazon, Also "FLYING SOLO: Top of the World" @JackSoloAuthor Dr. Michelle DuPre- Forensic Pathologist, Medical Examiner and Detective: Lexington County Sheriff's Department, Author: "Homicide Investigation Field Guide" & "Investigating Child Abuse Field Guide", Forensic Consultant, DMichelleDupreMD.com Elizabeth Peterson- Morning News Anchor & Reporter for WLUC TV6, uppermichiganssource.com, Facebook: Elizabeth Peterson TV6     See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

While many questions remain unanswered, new details are emerging in the murder of mom-of-5, Rachel Morin. We are learning that Morin stopped in a tanning salon she frequented before hitting the gym with new boyfriend, Richard Tobin. Tobin reportedly dropped Morin at home before she drove herself to one of two 'Ma and Pa' trailheads. In a now deleted Facebook comment, Tobin stated that he and Morin's children began searching for her around 9 p.m. and Tobin called in a missing person's report around 11:30 p.m. Employees at the tanning salon where Morin reportedly kept a "daily appointment" say that Morin would keep them updated on her dating life, and was still actively using multiple dating sites, despite announcing her relationship with Tobin online. Police may be looking to men Morin matched with as potential suspects.  Police are also asking the community to submit tips on any information possibly related to the case. 5 dog walkers on the trail at the time of Morin's hike have been identified and questioned, hopefully helping investigators establish if Morin was alone, narrow down the timeframe in which the murder occurred, and find who did this to Rachel Morin.  Joining Nancy Grace Today:  Jessica Garth- Chief, Special Victims & Family Violence Unit, State's Attorney's Office, Prince George's County, MD Dr. Bethany Marshall - Psychoanalyst (Beverly Hills, CA), DrBethanyMarshall.com, @DrBethanyLive Ron Bateman- Sherriff- Former Homicide and Undercover Narcotics, RonBatemanBooks.com, Author of crime trilogy ‘Silent Blue Tears.’ Currently directing and producing a film documentary on the murders at the Capital Gazette Newspaper in Annapolis.

An investigation is underway related to former priest Alex Crow. The 30-year-old and an 18-year-old girl fled to Italy were they are reportedly staying in an Airbnb with no intention of returning to the U.S.  The girl's parents have pleaded with her to return, but the girl insists she is fine. She says she and Cross have separate rooms.   Alabama police say they are probing allegations that Crow may have groomed the teen,  while she was still in high school.  A love letter from Crow to the teen on Valentine’s Day of this year was found.  Sheriff Burch said it is possible that more female students are involved. Church officials allegedly ordered the priest not to have contact with another female student who is a friend of the 18-year-old teen.

Investigators looking into the shocking death of 37-year-old Rachel Morin, have been tight-lipped on how the mom of five died, the type of injuries she sustained, or whether she was fully clothed or not.  They're also pushing back on comments made by Michael Gabriszeski, who claims that his stepdaughter, Cecilia, found the body of Rachel Morin. Gabriszeski said that Cecilia saw Morin's body first and she began hyperventilating. He says police told Cecilia to sit down, and that she did, in a big pool of blood.  Gabriszeksi says Morin was laying on her back, fully naked, and she had brutal head trauma. It looked like her head had been smashed with a rock. The Hartford Sheriff's Office Spokesperson said of Gabriszeski, "He has no first-hand knowledge of the crime scene." The spokesman says  Mr. Gabriszeski was in the area to help search for the missing woman,  but "was not within eyesight of the crime scene”.  Joining Nancy Grace Today:  Jessica Garth- Chief, Special Victims & Family Violence Unit, State's Attorney's Office, Prince George's County, MD Dr. Bethany Marshall - Psychoanalyst; Twitter:@DrBethanyLive  Ron Bateman - Sherrif, Former Homicide and Undercover Narcotics; Author of "Silent Blue Tears: Voice of The Victims;" Twitter: Ronbatemanbooks Toney Wade - Commander, Cajun Coast Search and Rescue Team;  Facebook: CajunCoastSAR Dr. Jan Gorniak - Medical Examiner, Clark County Office of the Coroner/Medical Examiner (Las Vegas, NV); Board Certified Forensic Pathologist  Jen Smith- Chief Reporter for DailyMail.com, Twitter: @jen_e_smith  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
