Summary

A small, quiet town in Missouri. A devoted mother caring for her chronically ill daughter. A story of love, sacrifice, and survival. Or so it seemed. But behind closed doors, beneath the layers of sympathy and kindness, there was a dark secret waiting to be uncovered. For nearly two decades Dee Dee Blanchard told the world that her daughter, Gypsy Rose, was dying. Leukemia, muscular dystrophy, seizures, vision and hearing issues, the list of illnesses and medical concerns was endless. Gypsy, a seemingly happy little girl with a huge smile, was bound to a wheelchair, fed through a tube, and showered with the attention and support of everyone around her, but no one really knew the horrifying truth. It seemed that Gypsy was perfectly healthy. She could walk. She didn't need a wheelchair to get around, and it appeared that she was being kept a prisoner in her own body, in her own home, by her own mother. The story goes that years of abuse, manipulation, and lies built up until they all came crashing down in the most unthinkable way: Murder. On the night of June 14, 2015, Dee Dee Blanchard was found stabbed to death in her home, and the prime suspect? Dee-Dee's innocent, smiling, happy, and allegedly disabled daughter, along with the man that Gypsy had been having a very adult relationship with. But nothing about this case is as it appears to be. This is the story of Gypsy Rose and Dee Dee Blanchard.

0:00.0	Hello, everybody. Welcome back to Crime Weekly. I'm Stephanie Harlow.
0:16.0	And I'm Derek Lavasar. Today we are jumping into part six of the Gypsy Rose and D.D. Blanchard case, and it's
0:23.4	going to be a long episode. So we are going to jump right in. Today we are listening to and discussing
0:29.4	the police interviews of Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Nicholas Godiard. And we're going to compare
0:36.3	and contrast. And there's going to be a lot to
0:39.5	discuss because I had to watch all of these interviews multiple times. And they're each,
0:44.6	I think two and a half hours each. So I had to figure out what was the most important and cut it down.
0:50.0	And yeah, it was all good. I mean, these were these wereations where from start, it was action-packed from start to finish.
0:57.9	So it was very hard to narrow down which clips to put in here to discuss.
1:02.7	But I think I did it.
1:04.9	And I think this is going to be Derek's first time seeing a lot of this footage.
1:09.2	So I'm excited because especially after we discussed the
1:11.7	messages between Gypsy and Nick last week, I think this is going to really add to that and
1:19.4	really round out what Gypsy's motive possibly was here. So, I mean, we're going to get right
1:26.6	into it. We don't have a lot,
1:28.6	we don't have a lot to talk about beforehand. I just want to say that even looking at the
1:33.6	circumstances of Gypsy's police interview versus Nick's police interview, you can already
1:39.2	see a difference in the way that they were treated, in the way they were perceived, even though
1:44.1	at that time,
1:45.6	the police had no way of knowing who did what, who actually held the knife that killed D.D.
1:51.0	Blanchard. They didn't know what had happened. They hadn't talked to them yet.
1:53.8	Nicholas was put in an interrogation room. He was sat at a table. He was cuffed. Jipsies in a room
