I’m a huge Crime Weekly fan and I’ve always admired the way Derrick analyzes cases. It was a little strange at first hearing Derrick read the facts of the cases instead of Stephanie, but he lays it out very well. I really enjoy the format of this show! Even though all of the cases are unsolved...Read full review »

Love Derrick and Stephanie together and love them independently too. This is a perfect contrast to Crime Weekly in that it’s specifically focused on unsolved cases and one episode chunks perfect for a shorter car journey. Derrick is so knowledgeable and respectful to the victims and I always look...Read full review »

The other day I was looking for a particular story, so I decided to try several different podcasts. Oh boy, what a mistake, they just talked and talked, then jumped around telling the story. I could not finish one of them, all I got was a headache !!! LOL So, thank you for setting the scene,...Read full review »

I love this podcast and the one you do with Stephanie crime weekly. I have heard of only a few of the cases you have covered so far in both podcasts. I love that you have a criminal background, have and show unbias. I love that you share your sympathy for the families involved.

Nice to hear Derrick independently. This podcast shows the true depth of his knowledge in his professional careers. What also comes across is his humility for the victims and families. Well done! Look forward to hearing more.

My favorite crime podcast BY FAR! Derrick has such a professional and calm demeanor…very enjoyable to listen to. I love that he is trying to bring light to cases that deserve another chance of getting solved. He discusses the cases in great detail and he always gives fantastic insight while...Read full review »

obsessed with this podcast and crime weekly!
coffeemama123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/24
Derrick gives an interesting and important perspective to cold cases. It’s just the cherry on top knowing he is a former detective. The fact that he cares so much to shed some light on these cold cases is amazing. Not to mention the fact that he’s an amazing story teller. Keep it up Derrick!! 🥰

Unlike some true crime podcasts that sensationalize the case, Derrick has a professional and respectful manner. I like the presentation of the case and Derrick’s knowledgeable take on the case. Shining a light on these cases with a call to action reminds me of two of my favorite TV shows:...Read full review »

Long time listener of crime weekly & detective perspective- first time commenter- I love Derrick’s ability to cover the facts of the case and his non judgmental stance towards the people involved in each case. You can tell he cares and hopes for the best on all the cases.

I first learned of Derrick when watching the OJ documentary he was in. I was thrilled to find he had a new podcast. The episodes have been very analytical and insightful.
ElSando88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/05/24
I am 8 minutes into this episode and the narrator is still rambling on about being an armchair detective, or not being one, I don’t know cause he lost me.
kimmjo87 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/04/24
I love everything about this podcast. Great voice, interesting content and love the perspective of someone who worked in the field. Thank you for using your platform to raise awareness and to put a spotlight on cases that aren't as main stream as others.Read full review »

Derek, let that one negative roll off your back. You do a great & thorough job of bringing victims & their stories back to the public’s’ minds. You are respectful and compassionate to victims & their families, while trying to bring justice to them. Keep up the great work! Melissa
mforeman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/04/24
While I like Derek he talks like we as a listener are unaware of the obvious points of a cold case. His comments about cases do not in my opinion assist in helping solve cases.

My mom LOVER you on big brother! I also love your true crime work. Keep it up king
meggysweaters via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/24
LOVE Derrick. One of those guys that accepts everyone for who they are and is wholesome on where his loyalty lies. This show is so entertaining and great but the audio is so off putting. I just want to listen to his voice at even level volume with the ads
Steph.ieJo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/06/24
Love your format and cases. Thanks!
Samlongpants via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/24
Derrick has a great voice and is well spoken. I’ve enjoyed other podcasts from him focusing on Big Brother and am a huge fan of his. My go to podcast genre is true crime so when I stumbled on Derricks I was excited to listen. I’ve now listened to multiple and I haven’t been disappointed. He does...Read full review »

I’ve been following true crime/crime podcasts for years now. I’ve listened to most of them, and have a select few I listen to regularly. Once I found crime weekly, I was immediately hooked! When I heard Derrick was getting his own pod, of course I had to listen. And Detective Perspective has...Read full review »

Started listening when this podcast first came out and I’ve loved every episode! Unsolved cases are very interesting and I like the way Derrick shares these stories!!
chantal connelly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/24/24
This podcast is amazing!! Derek’s knowledge of law enforcement and true crime shines through!! He is informative and when he gives his perspective is fair and honest! I highly recommend this podcast! Thank you Derek for finally giving me a podcast I can’t miss!

This is always good!
Lkelty via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/24
I easily listen to 30+ True Crime and news podcasts while working (I work alone in a workshop 40+ hours a week). Some of those are comedy-true crime, but I much prefer the more serious, factual pods that stay on topic and handle the topics and victims in a respectful manner. I came across Crime...Read full review »

Welcome back Derrick! We missed you. What a great case to come back with. I think this was the best coverage you’ve done to date. 🙌🏻
Tosh Bosh from VT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/08/24
I am stoked I found this! I love it.
Luckystarad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/31/23
I think it’s awesome that you’re going back and looking at old cases in cases that didn’t get a lot of exposure. It’d be great if some of them get it solved even if only one got solved it was worth it so keep it up I love listening.
cpt. stud via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/23
Love Derrick. His calm voice is soothing. I like this shorter to-the-point format. Derrick is always respectful and compassionate towards the victims and their families. He will call out the police when they mess up, and compliment the police when they are conscientious and do their best. Very...Read full review »

Love this podcast! Great job to you and your team! You deserve a break!
Smokin204 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/11/23
Derrick has selected important cases we need to hear! I love his spidey-sense for each case and new ideas. Plus, he adds a tip or two on how victims can avoid becoming victims without placing blame, small things I do myself, but no more because Derrick said so! I look forward to every episode!
Wanna Be Crime Solver via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/09/23
Started listening after hearing about the podcast on Moms and Mysteries and really love the show. I love the pacing and sharing as well as your perspective based on your experiences. I am fairly early in the episodes so I don’t know if this may have changed but my one “note” is the abrupt...Read full review »

I listen to crime weekly and heard Derek was doing his own podcast so I had to come che j it out. Derek is a down to earth humble guy I’ll support him anytime! Keep up the good work helping victims and families trying to get justice!! God Bless!

Hello from Canada 🇨🇦 It’s great to hear a different perspective on cases, some I’ve heard on other pods and some brand new to me. Derrick explains each case concisely and with utmost respect for the family’s of the cold case victims. Ty for another great pod!
Dar698 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/01/23
I am drawn to unsolved cases. Derrick does a great job in concisely presenting information and then following up with his professional opinion. Four episodes in and I cannot complain here. This may become one of my favorites. Had to update. The ads are annoying. They just jump in the middle of...Read full review »

I came here from Crime Weekly-favorite podcast so had to check this one out. Love Derek and the way he handles the cases with respect to the victims and families.
Stacey95107 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/23
I’ve followed Derrick for a few years from Crime Weekly and couldn’t be more proud of his own endeavor. I love how he tells all the important details of the case and adds hid perspective as the end.
KBeav90 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/23
Basically will listen to anything Derrick does. Truly cares about the victims.
bayarearx. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/31/23
Just that, the podcast is well done and it’s very interesting but the host has terrible grammar.
