Tad DiBiase, a former federal prosecutor who specialized in “no-body” homicide cases joins the show. Tad walks through the reality behind these investigations and prosecutions, and why the idea that “no body means no case” simply isn’t true. We discuss what it takes to move forward without a body, from building circumstantial evidence to identifying behavioral patterns that demonstrate a homicide occurred.

Throughout this series, we will examine the case through both behavioral and psychological perspectives to better understand the offender and his crimes. Part 1 of 3.
