Description

Anaheim investigator Julissa Trapp is not like other detectives. She’s the only woman on the homicide squad, and a skilled chameleon: undercover cop in vice stings, crime-scene commander, patient confidante of killers. A master interrogator, she invokes her personal experience – and deepest griefs – as a tool to elicit confessions. When a young woman’s body is found at a trash-sorting plant, Trapp learns the murder may be linked to the disappearance of three other women in nearby Santa Ana. Trapp embarks on a dark journey that brings her face to face with a man who takes “a little piece of her soul.” The series is about a singular detective on a relentless, sometimes lonely quest for answers.From the Los Angeles Times and Wondery, “Detective Trapp” is a new story from Christopher Goffard, the writer and host of “Dirty John.”

"Foretold" is the newest podcast from the L.A. Times, and we're sharing a preview of the first episode with you here today. In the fall of 2019, reporter Faith E. Pinho received a tip from a woman named Paulina Stevens. Paulina claimed she had grown up in an insular Romani community in California, where she was raised to be a wife, mother and fortuneteller — until she decided to break away. That first call unraveled a story spanning multiple continents, hundreds of years, and complex metaphysical realities.  Follow "Foretold" to hear new episodes every Tuesday.

A horrific story told with compassion and respect, great work! One thing I find incredibly sad is that this story was partly told because it's unusual. The fact that police had the time and resources to work and ultimately solve these crimes is statistically rare. How sad that other families who loose daughters/mothers/sisters to these types of crimes everyday are usually left wondering. The initial police reaction these mothers encountered is far more typical. This comment is not intended as a condemnation of police and other law enforcement. It's an opinion and an observation about the society we have all created, not a judgement.

LOVE this podcast!! Detective Trapp is such an inspiration! Not only in her career but also in her personal life, her openness with her infertility struggle has inspired me to open up about my own. I am currently struggling and it's emotional almost every day for me, listening to podcasts like these where someone so inspiring like Detective Trapp talla about their amazing and selfless career but also common struggles in their personal life helps me want to be more brave 💕
