  • W&C Reconsidered: Erin Caffey
    May 23 2025
    Ep 243: Reconsidered: #10 - Erin Caffey Original Airdate: 03/03/20 In the early morning hours of March 1, 2008, 2 young men burst into the Caffey home in the middle of the night and embarked on a killing spree that would leave two young children and their mother dead. Their father, Terry suffered multiple gunshot wounds but somehow managed to drag himself to a neighbor for help just before the house became engulfed in flames. It took less than 24 hours for police to discover that Terry’s 16 year old daughter played an integral role in this heinous crime. Why would a teenage girl want her whole family dead and exactly what role did she play in these brutal murders? Women & Crime: Reconsidered is where we revisit our episode catalog and bring new insights, behind the scenes or updates.

Nice balance of Expert Opinions with real Friends chemistry. Amy & Meg both have PhD's in Criminal Justice and have worked within the system.

I love how they tell the story of the cases, and at the end educate you on the behavioral/psychological science.

Real Criminologists

I only recently started listening to this podcast and I'm disappointed I didn't find it sooner. Meghan and Amy are not only extremely knowledgeable and have the professional chops to tackle these stories, but they also take great care not to make light or disrespect them in the process. If you want a true crime podcast that's heavy on information and *informed* analysis while also being light on the school girl banter or morbid "humor" that's so common in this genre, this is the podcast for you.

Intelligent and insightful

I like how they focus on women across the crime spectrum and through time with stories about women as criminals and as victims.

Great podcast!

My only wish is that the episodes were longer! This is an excellent podcast, I must have binged 5 episodes straight

My new favorite!
