Hear No Evil
(Investigation Discovery)
Hear No Evil is a gripping new series where audio evidence helps police solve real-life homicides. Directed two episodes, including the extraordinary case of one of America’s least known and most depraved sexual sadists, who recorded his victims, as they were tortured.
James Mitchell DeBardeleben was a convicted kidnapper, rapist, counterfeiter, and suspected serial killer who became known as the "Mall Passer" due to his practice of passing counterfeit bills in shopping malls bordering interstate highways across the US. When the Secret Service apprehended him after a four-year hunt they had no idea of his other crimes. The arrest uncovered a treasure trove of evidence at a lock-up: photos and audiotapes of tortured women, weapons and fake IDs. With the help of the FBI and local law enforcement across the United States DeBardeleben's crimes were pieced together.
Interviews with the original Secret Service team that worked the case, FBI investigators and relatives of the victims.
(Directed and edited)
The second episode is the story of successful businesswoman, Kentucky-born Donna Fryman, who was accused of murdering her husband after the police found incriminating audio evidence of the moments after she shot her childhood sweetheart. Donna had to prove that she shot her husband Danny in self-defence after years of physical and psychological abuse.
