UHC CEO Murder: Traces of DNA Found on Shell Casings and Water Bottle | Crime Alert Hourly Update Bonus Podcast

James Fyfe leaves his Massachusetts security screening job to follow his dreams of becoming a cop.

New Orleans catches Fyfe’s eye, actually circulating ‘help wanted’ posters amid a hiring slump. Fyfe begins as a patrol officer in Algiers and works his way up the Fourth District Task Force into property crimes.

After time on the Violent Crime Abatement Investigation team, Fyfe finally gets a shot in the homicide division, just as NOLA sees a huge spike in violent crime. While many detectives only handle about five homicide cases a year, Fyfe is assigned to nearly 40 cases over three years because he keeps clearing them!

Since 2022, Fyfe has closed 24 consecutive cases he is assigned to, with his co-workers keeping track on a white board they’ve dubbed the "Fyfe-o-meter."

Fyfe’s work helps the homicide division bring its ‘clearance rate’ from 40% in 2022 to above 76%.

As 2024 nears the end, Thanh Vu tends her supermarket, but three "customers" are seeking more than groceries. Thanh, 61, was held at gunpoint while thieves emptied the register and pocketed cigarettes.

When Thanh fights back, she’s shot and left for dead. 

Joining Nancy Grace:

James Fyfe - Homicide Detective, New Orleans Police Department, Criminal Law Degree from Northeastern University, and Master’s at Suffolk University; Increased Homicide Unit’s Clearance Rate from 40% to 75% from 2022-2024

Two teenagers in Florida have been indicted in the killing of 14-year-old Danika Troy of Pace, whose body was discovered earlier this month.

Authorities say a reserve police officer and his wife are facing criminal charges after investigators concluded their biological and foster children were subjected to severe abuse.

A man accused of fatally shooting his grandfather two years ago has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and is expected to testify against his mother, whom prosecutors say orchestrated the killing.

Florida Teens Charged as Adults in Shooting Death of a Classmate | Crime Alert 6AM 12.30.25

A mother in St. Cloud, Florida, hires around-the-clock nursing care in her home to help care for her teenage daughter.

The 18-year-old is developmentally disabled, non-verbal, quadriplegic with cerebral palsy, and has minimal vision. To cover the 24 / 7 schedule, nurses work 12-hour shifts, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. in their St. Cloud home.

Checking on her disabled daughter Saturday morning, the mother notices red scratches around her daughter's mouth and eyelid; the scratches were not present the previous evening, and as a quadriplegic, it is impossible for her daughter to scratch herself in such a way, so she reviews surveillance camera footage from the previous night and calls the police immediately.

The nurse during this time was Nia Ayers, a 24-year-old Licensed Practical Nurse who had cared for the girl on Friday night into Saturday morning for over a year.

She has been licensed since 2021 and has not had a single disciplinary action or even a complaint in her nursing career.
