We’re true crime people, so we all double check the house before bed — locks on doors, locked windows, nobody skulking outside or in the basement, the works. That’s part of our routine. But we also know we have a home security system that can help prevent crimes before they even happen.

Simplisafe is a home security system that stops intruders before they even break in. We trust them with our home, with our peace of mind. Their AI-powered cameras lock onto threats outside of your home. If an intruder approaches, their live agents don’t just sit around. They get on there and confront the person. They sound alarms. Flash lights. Let them know the police are on the way. 

That way, you can protect your home and stop crime in its tracks. We’ve been loyal Simplisafe fans for years. We love the flexibility. The lack of contracts and fees. We love that it’s great for renters and homeowners. We love that it’s been named one of the “Best Home Security Systems” by U.S. News & World Report for five years in a row. It’s a great service and it makes us feel safe. 

So protect your home with SimpliSafe and get 50% off any new system for a limited time. Just go to SIMPLISAFE dot com slash MSHEET. That’s SIMPLISAFE dot com slash MSHEET. There’s No Safe Like SimpliSafe

We've talked to you about quite a few cold cases on the Murder Sheet. Now, it's time to get into how these sensitive, often-negleceted cases should be handed.

For today's episode, we interviewed criminologist and author Dr. Michael Artnfield about these unsolved cases, which he delves into in his latest book How to Solve a Cold Case: And Everything Else You Wanted To Know About Catching Killers. Before founding the Western University Cold Case Society and becoming a professor at Western University in Canada, Arntfield served as a police officer and detective in London, Ontario. Now he also works with the Murder Accountability Project to track possible serial killers.
