Meet the CrimeCon Informant

CrimeCon • Feb 15, 2017

HELLO, TRUE CRIME ADDICTS! I’M YOUR CONFIDENTIAL CRIMECON INFORMANT; WELCOME TO MY BLOG.

I’m here to unlock the mysteries of CrimeCon. To take you behind the scenes and be your conduit to the convention producers and to everything they’re working on for the ultimate true crime weekend.

And from what I’ve seen so far. . . wow! We are all in for quite a treat.

CrimeCon producers brought me in and gave me full access to everything they’re working on so that I can be your eyes and ears. I’m slinking around behind the scenes to bring you regular updates on guests, podcasts, breakout sessions, a murder mystery dinner, exclusive VIP experiences-- everything you need to know before your CrimeCon weekend. I’m also going to take a closer look at some well-known (and not-so-well-known) cases featured at CrimeCon, and interviewing a number of the special guests to find out what they’re planning.

So, who am I, exactly? I'm an expertly-trained government operative with experience in clandestine surveillance and-- nah. . . Actually, I’m just a true crime nerd who was lucky enough to have been handed over the CrimeCon keys.

In real life, I’m a Websleuth and an armchair detective active on virtually every true crime subreddit and Topix forum. My DVR is full of Dateline specials and Snapped episodes. My bookshelf is stuffed with dog-eared books with morbid titles that have raised the eyebrows of many of my visitors. I’m simply a true crime fan with inside access, and I’m sharing what I learn with you!

You’ll see me pop up on Facebook , Twitter , Instagram , as well as here on the blog from time to time. But you don’t have to seek me out! Sign up to receive free CrimeCon Informant updates delivered directly to your inbox.

Stay informed, and I’ll see you at CrimeCon! (But you won’t see me!)

For the passionate true crime fan, it isn’t just about knowing what happened —it’s about understanding why. Every Monday TV One goes beyond the headlines to get to the WHY behind the crime. From police brutality to stories of Black love and revenge, TV One is committed to telling our stories, our way! “Payback” is all about vengeance, revealing the motives behind the crimes. “Fatal Attraction” explores when love’s embrace morphs into a deadly grip, while “Sins of The City” unmasks the crimes that have rocked cities across the country. “For My Man” tells the stories of women who committed crimes for love. And in “ATL Homicide,” Detectives David Quinn and Vince Velazquez share their most challenging cases, highlighting the profound human impact of crime.
