"My Life of Crime": Season 3 of the award-winning true-crime podcast debuts | Forensic Files

THE LARGER IMPACT OF MORTGAGE RATES ON THE ECONOMY. >>> CALLING ALL TRUE CRIME LOVERS.
"MY LIFE OF CRIME" RETURNS FOR A THIRD SEASON TODAY. ERIN MORIARTY WILL PROVIDE MORE
REPORTING THAT "48 HOURS" FANS ALREADY LOVE AND HERE IS A PREVIEW. >> WE ALL LIE. SMALL LIES.
>> I'M JUST GOING TO ASK YOU. >> ARE YOU FINALLY READY TO ADMIT THAT YOU KILLED YOUR
WIFE? >> NO. BECAUSE I DIDN'T. I DID NOT SUFFOCATE OR DO ANYTHING TO HURT MY WIFE.
>> AND SHE IS HERE TO TALK MORE ABOUT WHAT WE CAN EXPECT ON SEASON THREE OF "MY LIFE OF
CRIME". I'M SO GLAD YOU ARE HERE . I LISTENED TO A LOT OF PODCASTS BUT "48 HOURS" ISN'T JUST
TALKING ABOUT CRIMES READ ABOUT BUT CORRESPONDENCE THAT FOLLOWS CASES MANY YEARS.
>> I HAVE TO AGREE WITH YOU THERE IS A LOT OF TRUE CRIME PODCASTS AND PUPIL TALK ABOUT
THE CASES BUT WE'D TALK TO THE PEOPLE ACCUSED OF CRIMES. YOU GET A SENSE OF HOW OFTEN.
IN FACT, WHEN I WAS PUTTING THESE TOGETHER, I DIDN'T REALIZE HOW OFTEN I DO TALK TO
ACCUSED KILLERS. ONE OF THE THINGS IS LYING FEELING THAT PEOPLE WILL GO TOOL TO AVOID RESPONSIBILITY AND GET
AWAY WITH MURDER. YOU REALLY HAVE TO BE ON YOUR TOES. YOU HAVE TO KNOW THAT CASE AS WELL
AS ANYBODY TO BE ABLE TO CATCH THEM IN THESE LINES. >> YOU DO NOT FORGET THAT WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT HUMAN BEINGS AND LIVES THAT ARE UPROOTED. IT IS ONE OF MANY REASONS WHY I
LOVE "48 HOURS" EXPECT AN AWESOME PUPIL ARE ENTERTAINED BY THE STORIES, BUT FOR ME IT
IS EDUCATING PEOPLE. WE FOCUS ON LEGAL ISSUES AND ALL OF THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY. THE NEW
TECHNOLOGY THAT IS HELPING COPS SOLVE CASES CORRECTLY. THERE IS A CASE THAT I DEAL WITH THAT
THEY COULD'VE GOTTEN THE WRONG SUSPECT BECAUSE HE LOOKED LIKE A GOOD SUSPECT BUT BECAUSE THEY
USED THE GOOGLE DASHBOARD AND EVEN THE FITBIT THEY GOT THE RIGHT KILLER. THESE ARE REALLY
INTERESTING AND IMPORTANT CASES . IT IS FINE IF PEOPLE ARE ENTERTAINED BUT THERE IS A MUCH
MORE IMPORTANT REASON FOR DOING THESE STORIES. >> YOU ARE USED TO DOING THIS ON TV.
IS THE CHALLENGES OR BENEFITS FOR DOING IT WITH AUDIO ONLY? BUT FILES. THERE IS SOMETIMES A CHALLENGE
TO PUT ON TV BECAUSE IT CANNOT GET ENOUGH PICTURES. WE DO NOT NEED PICTURES. ON THE OTHER HAND, I CANNOT
SHOW THEM THE CRIME SCENE SO TO DESCRIBE IT. I FIND IT A FUN CHALLENGE AND AN INTERESTING
CHALLENGE, FORCING ME TO BE MORE DESCRIPTIVE AND A BETTER STORYTELLER. >> YOU ALREADY HAVE A FULL
SCHEDULE. WHAT YOU TAKING ON THIS CHALLENGE? BUT BECAUSE I LOVE THIS. I REALLY DO. IT IS A WONDERFUL
FORM OF STORYTELLING AND WHAT IS REALLY GREAT ABOUT IT IS I AM TAKING SOME STORIES BUT
EXPANDING IT DOING AN UPDATE. THERE IS ONE CASE WHERE WE DID NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS
WOMAN WHO DISAPPEARED I KNOW I DO THAT AS PART OF MY PODCAST. THERE IS A REAL REASON FOR
DOING THESE CASES. >> WE GET THE BENEFIT OF SPEAKING WITH ERIN OFF THE AIR AND GETTING ALL OF THESE EXTRA
THINGS AND I ALWAYS THOUGHT SOMEONE ELSE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS AND SO THIS PODCAST GIVES YOU
THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR THE STUFF THAT WE GET TO HEAR BECAUSE WE ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO
WORK WITH YOU. >> AND ANY TIME THAT THEY WANT TO HEAR IT. THE FIRST EPISODE OF THE SEASON
IS ALREADY OUT BIG YOU CAN LISTEN T
