Cardinal Crimes
At Cardinal Crimes, we want "true crime" to have a purpose.
Here, we aim to raise awareness of cases, deepen understanding of various types of crime and the psychology driving them, and explore ways to prevent future crime—whether through individual actions, community efforts, societal change, or policy reform.
We do this by speaking with survivors, victims, experts, policymakers, offenders, and more to learn all that we can about crime and how to stop it.

Police have now classified Hannah Kobayashi, a 30-year-old woman from Maui, as a voluntarily missing person. Kobayashi went missing when she didn’t make her connecting flight to New York on November 8th. Later, police said they saw
