Groomed – Control, coercion and the cold-hearted killing of showjumper Katie Simpson is a new, nine-part investigative podcast series from Crime World.
Groomed unveils the brutal truth behind the death of 21-year-old showjumper Katie Simpson, initially staged as a suicide but later revealed to be rape and murder at the hands of Jonathan Creswell, a 36-year-old with a history of controlling and abusing women. This narrative plunges into the dark world of a charismatic yet deeply depraved horseman who cultivated a cult-like control over multiple women, including Katie, her sister Christina, Jill Robinson, Hayley Robb, and Rose De Montmorency Wright. Despite a history of violence, chillingly previewed by the abuse of a former partner, Olympic showjumper Abigail Lyle, Creswell remained untouchable within the privileged equestrian community. It took the relentless efforts of a determined journalist and others to expose the truth, even as Creswell’s own dramatic suicide during his murder trial left his accomplices to face justice alone. Nicola Tallant and the Crime World team talk to journalists and investigators, as well as Katie's friends and Creswell's victims, to investigate just how such a violent individual was allowed to hurt so many people, and why he almost got away with murder.

Die schlimmsten Verbrechen passieren meist nicht in der Großstadt, sondern direkt nebenan: Wenn die nette Nachbarin angeblich im Urlaub ist, in Wirklichkeit aber einbetoniert unter dem Garagenboden liegt oder wenn ein kleines Mädchen plötzlich spurlos vom elterlichen Bauernhof verschwindet, sind das Fälle die man nie vergisst.

You think you know the NXIVM story. The secretive self-help empire. The sex cult headlines. The downfall of its leader, Keith Raniere.
But the most famous woman at the centre of the story has remained largely silent. Allison after NXIVM tells the story of Allison Mack: former Smallville actress, high-ranking NXIVM member, and convicted felon. With exclusive access following her release from prison, this series traces her astonishing path from Smallville fame to NXIVM’s inner circle — and her effort to rebuild a life in the wreckage.
Through raw interviews and revealing conversations with those who knew her before, during, and after NXIVM, this season dives deep into the gray zones of influence, accountability, and redemption.
