CrimeCon 2020: House Arrest Superlatives

Paul Holes took House Arrest attendees into the mysterious murder of Emmon Bodfish, a reclusive business owner and investment banker formerly known as Margaret Bodfish. During House Arrest, Paul revealed crime scene photos, analysis of blood splatter patterns, and diary excerpts from Bodfish himself before a LIVE Q&A.

The host of Victimology , Melissa Lee is joined by fellow podcaster Melanie Peterson of Mask of Sanity podcast. Together, they discuss "Familicide" which is the killing of multiple family members, most commonly the homicide of an intimate partner and at least one child.

Dan Schneider, "The Pharmacist" and Charlotte Bismuth led an emotional discussion and Q&A on America's raging opioid epidemic. The stage chat during this session was filled with comments from viewers who experienced the devastating effects firsthand.

Expert Interrogator Fil Waters dissected an interrogation tape during his House Arrest session. No one was prepared for the emotions and chills that came with the session, especially at the end where Fil and a detective hold hands with the suspect and pray for him. The chat was filled with comments like "I have tears running down my face" and "Reality check: sobbing".

Although Dr. Bill Smock may not have been a "high-profile" personality that attendees watched for hours on television, he definitely stole the show at House Arrest with his presentation on strangulation. His session included demonstrations and a live Q&A.

If you told us that Statement Analysis and deception expert Mark McClish rented out a library to host his House Arrest presentation in, we would have believed you. His session, Chris Watts: Breaking Down the Lies, was equally as fascinating as it was visually pleasing!

Attendees could not stop raving about the room that husband and wife duo Dr. Michael Baden & Linda Kenney Baden presented from. As if the House Arrest logo, flowers and dog pillows in the background weren't enough -- cue the Baby Yoda!

We asked attendees to share photos of their House Arrest setup and hashtag #CCHouseArrest. This one Instagram user absolutely blew it out of the water! Bonus points for the pup.
