Crime House 24/7

They say you should never call your ex, but this episode explores why you shouldn’t mix romance with business either. Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt didn’t just date Michelle Ritter. He built a company with her and folded her into his world of mansions, staff, and early stage deals. When the relationship soured, their attempt to settle things quietly blew up after Michelle said Schmidt was trying to silence her from speaking about abuse and stalking.

He responded by cutting off her access to properties and systems and insisting her claims are false. Now Ritter has filed for a domestic violence restraining order, Schmidt’s lawyers are pushing to seal the case, and a December hearing could decide how much of their fight over money, power, and control becomes part of the public record.

It was supposed to be a family lunch, but instead it became one of Australia’s most chilling murder cases. Erin Patterson served her in-laws homemade Beef Wellington, laced with wild deathcap mushrooms she claimed to have foraged herself. Three guests died, and one barely survived. On the day of the deadly meal, Erin lured her husband’s parents and relatives to her home under the guise of sharing a cancer diagnosis…a story prosecutors later revealed was a complete lie. In tonight’s episode, Katie unravels the shocking deceptions and digital trail that ended with Erin’s conviction being one of the harshest sentences ever handed to an Australian woman. Now, Erin is trying to appeal her conviction, and Katie watches what comes next.

North Port, Florida is the kind of place where nothing out of the ordinary is supposed to happen. But one night on a quiet residential street, a family built on faith, service, and second chances was torn apart. In this episode of Night Watch, Katie Ring examines the murders of Robbie and Jennifer Tower — a couple known in their community for opening their home and their hearts. We trace the family’s decision to adopt a teenage boy from Ukraine, the years of struggle that followed, and the night everything turned violent. From the frantic 911 call to the hours-long manhunt and the courtroom testimony that sealed his fate, this case raises difficult questions about trust, trauma, and how good intentions can collide with devastating outcomes.
