Imagine being the lead detective in the LAPD investigating art-theft and real estate fraud, only to find yourself being interrogated for a murder. This was the case of former LAPD detective Stephanie Lazarus who was convicted after 23 years. What you’re about to see is an unfortunate tale of secrets, betrayal, and a twisted love triangle, which compelled a police officer/lover to kill. This is the Case of Stephanie Lazarus.

This is exactly how everyone here would act. When you know you’re facing the rest of your life behind bars no matter how prepared you are with interrogations like she is, your heart rate goes crazy, panic sets in and you’re fucked, almost all interrogations are resolved by you telling on yourself, not the detective outwitting you. The only people who get through these calm are the ones not scared to do time or the ones smart enough to only say the word “lawyer”

@@ADORABEL25 ​@ADORABEL25 I disagree. She would have known better than most that if it gets to the point that detectives are sitting you down for an interrogation, especially that long after a case has gone cold, that it is because they have crucial and incriminating evidence. The absolute most important thing anybody should do when being interrogated, whether guilty or innocent, is say nothing until a lawyer is present. If she genuinely knew this was an interrogation, she would have known they knew something that no amount of manipulation would have been able to dig her out of. She would have known that anything she said, aside from the truth, would have only served to incriminate her further. You don't get to being a high ranking and decorated detective without knowing these things. You heard her towards the end of the interrogation clue onto what was happening which is why she left the room and ended the interrogation. This was after HOURS.

I actually wondered about that when watching this video, especially the part where the narrator claimed that crime in LA had calmed down a bit enough to free up some extra time + resources to allow to re-open some cold case files. When has LA reduced in crime levels even if crime ebbed and flowed in a pattern we are still talking about Los Angeles - it just seemed like they had assigned someone to rework that cold case and get her. Sadly though, it wasn't about justice it was about some higher-up getting pissed off and wanting revenge, maybe she didn't toe the line or something or got a little too big for her boots or maybe she wanted that higher-ups job - she's evil but that superior is even more evil and corrupt. It must of been so difficult working in that kind of environment - the PTSD must of been real.

Chucking them an occasional counterfeit Rembrant from the back of a truck?...If any evidence had suggested that, many, John Rutin himself, the victims family etc would've sought justice for it I've no doubt.

A few details left out here. First the bite mark. It was assumed the burglar was male but biting is rarely done by men, biting, hair pulling etc are most often signs of a female attacker. Also Stephanie Lazarus had taken the day off on the day of the murder, something that should have raised eyebrows. Furthermore the 3 shots fired were muffled by a rolled up blanket which is how no one heard the shots. This shows a planned attack. Also 2 bags of evidence went missing as the case was being reviewed back when it first happened, which could only have been done by someone with internal access to the evidence room, a police officer. And finally the only item actually missing from the home that day was the marriage license the young couple had recently applied for. Why in the world would a burglar take such an item? Either way, im glad they finally caught her, justice served late is better than no justice at all.

The LAPD most likely knew she killed Rasmussen but covered it up because they didn't want it getting out that one of their own did it. Until 2009 when those 2 detectives were sneaking around gathering evidence from that case. Notice how they had to keep their investigation quiet to avoid backlash? Completely corrupt.

They do this to trick you into feeling safe so you'll talk more. If they arrest you, they have to read you your rights, and you might stop talking or ask for a lawyer. They told her she could leave, but she stayed and talked. If she tried to leave, they wouldn't let her and would arrest her instead. That was their plan all along, because people often don’t call their bluff. When police question you, they're usually trying to get information from you. They act like you're not in trouble and can leave anytime, so you'll let your guard down and talk. But they're really just trying to get as much information as possible before they arrest you, which they planned to do from the start.

No. I'm not saying not to charge her or for her to get away with it, but I'm saying your comment is sort of surface level thought on her punishment alone but does not take into consideration who else gets hurt as a result of her getting away with the crime for so long and building a life. Had she got caught and justice served her husband could have married someone else and things like that. I don't think she has any kids biological kids, I heard of an adopted daughter, but to that child perhaps she felt that was her mom.

The second the 1st question started, she knew what she was there for. She knew she did it and she knew these guys were going to turn up the heat. From a psychological point of view, she started coming apart very very early in this and they would've smelt it on her because i could smell it on her immediately. A 26 year veteran of the force knows exactly what is happening and why it’s happening and not being prepared for it because the case had been cold for so long. It startled her and she is doing her best to wriggle around every question but she knows she’s not nailing it and she starts falling to pieces, subtly falling on her own sword as that interview goes on.

It's like anything else. They will protect some and take down others. It's always political whether you like it or not. That's just the natural way people become when put in large pools or groups. Very few lead, most will follow, and there's always good and bad. She probably sucked the right peoples dicks and was able to stay clear for 23 years, but another person maybe would have been nabbed many years earlier.

Having watched a number of true-crime documentaries, I must admit that this one is exceptionally well done. The voice-over description is concise, relevant and clear. And the producers have resisted the common practice among some documentarians of introducing silly cartoons and snippets from popular movies in an attempt to amuse the viewer and illustrate a particular point. In fact, their use of stock material is minimal and is introduced only when something visual is necessary to the narrative but unavailable for obvious reasons. In short, this presentation deserves an A+.

It must be really hard to make a true crime video about a well know case, especially one that has been covered by JCS, so much so that most folk don't even try, they will make a video about the case and basically just use the the existing videos as the research. That's why I think this video is really cool, loads of new details, and a load of photos that I haven't seen before.
