E|153 A Conversation with Bobby Chacon

🎙️ CRIMINAL MISCHIEF“Race, Media, and Missing Persons” — with Retired FBI Special Agent Bobby Chacon In this week’s episode of Criminal Mischief, host Carolyn Ossorio sits down with retired FBI Special Agent Bobby Chacon — a veteran investigator whose decades of experience span organized crime, counterterrorism, and some of the Bureau’s most challenging missing-persons cases. Together, they revisit two haunting investigations: the disappearances of Joyce Chiang and Chandra Levy — two young women whose cases, though eerily similar, were handled very differently by both law enforcement and the media. Through candid reflection and hard-earned perspective, Bobby and Carolyn explore how race, class, and public perception shape the urgency — and sometimes the outcome — of national investigations. Why did one case dominate headlines while the other faded into silence? What do these stories reveal about who gets justice, and who gets ignored? This is a conversation about crime and consequence — but also about compassion, bias, and the uncomfortable truths that linger long after the cameras move on. 💬 Featuring FBI insights into the Chiang and Levy investigations How media bias impacts missing persons coverage The human cost of unequal attention Lessons learned from decades in federal law enforcement 💼 Support Our Sponsors 🖤 Quince — Luxury without the markup.Shop high-quality essentials at www.quince.com/mischief for free shipping and 365-day returns. 🐾 Ollie — Fresh, human-grade dog food delivered to your door.Go to www.ollie.com/devilwithin for 60% off your first box. 📣 Connect Criminal Mischief → @criminalmischiefpod The Devil Within → @thedevilwithinpod The Ides of April → @idesofaprilpod Taboo Treasures → @taboo_treasures For press & network updates: www.eviocreative.com | [email protected] 🔥 Criminal Mischief — because the truth doesn’t always make the front page.
