The Collier Landry Show
The Collier Landry Show
Many people have experienced some form of trauma in their life. I decided at an early age that our trauma should not be what defines us; it’s what we choose to do with it that does. I was just 11 years old when I witnessed my father murder my mother in the early morning hours of New Year's Eve. When no one believed me except one detective, I gathered evidence against my father, leading police to discover her body buried in another state. After having my story featured on Forensic Files, I channeled my trauma into filmmaking and podcasting, gaining widespread recognition as the creator and subject of A Murder in Mansfield, a film directed by two-time Oscar winner Barbara Kopple. Every week, I share my unique perspective on surviving true crime and trauma, overcoming adversity, and moving on. Along with sharing my healing process, I speak with fellow trauma survivors, academics, advocates, and storytellers and explore what came next. I hope this podcast serves as a kind of therapy and reconciliation for myself, and anyone who may be processing betrayal and dark trauma in their lives.

Diary of a Sociopath: Collier's father romanticizes falling in love with his mother. After he murdered her.

Diary of a Sociopath:  Collier's father romanticizes falling in love with his mother. After he murdered her.

Collier Landry and Brenda Fisher discuss as Collier reads his father's letter from prison in which he romanticizes how he met and fell in love with Collier's mother.

The letter concludes with his father blaming the "Mansfield Crooks" for destroying his life and for his incarceration, yet never admits his own role in the murder of Collier's mother, which he was convicted for on June 24, 1990.

Collier shares his own story of how the probate lawyers in the case took advantage of a young and helpless Collier financially.

The episode concludes with Collier explaining all of his father's manipulation tactics, which are fully on display in this correspondence.
