At around 4:45pm on Friday April 9, Laura was preparing to head home after finishing an afternoon shift. Before she left, her manager asked if she could stay a little longer to cover for another employee who had just called in sick. Friday evenings were always busy and the restaurant couldn’t afford to be understaffed. Laura would only have to stay until someone else could be found to work the entire shift. Happy to help and eager for the chance to earn a little extra money, Laura agreed to continue working.

That title really draws your attention. I better listen right away!

Ben Barnes

If you want a film on this it is could “compliance”. I watched it the other week and wondered if casefile would do it. So sad and interesting. Can’t wait to listen to it.

Erica Colliss

I’m only 15 minutes in. This is wild! Hard to believe it is real.

This one had me saying “what the F**K” multiple times aloud in sheer disbelief. How could anyone be so blindly stupid as to think a real police officer would ask them to do the things the perpetrator was asking... that assistant manager was clearly a couple beers short of a full six pack, and her boyfriend was a creep

Kerry Weinstein

This one was intense. I have no other words!

Olive

This is insane! I could stop just being like “WHAT” every time something escalated. I don’t understand how so many people could be so dense. Why would an employee ever strip search someone in a restaurant or retail chain???? Ever? Why? So dumb.

Nasayir Bedlam

Wow. Not really sure what to say about this one.

Michael

Stewart has a phone card linked to the other prank calls and the jury still wouldn't convict? Something seriously wrong in that place.

Annie Brod

I cannot believe this. This is abhorrent.

Julia Park

Wow, what an amazing episode! I’m from Kentucky, but wasn’t living here when this happened so didn’t know the story. Although it’s very disappointing to me that a Bullitt County jury acquitted this guy, I am proud that a Mt. Washington detective is the one who caught him. After all, this had been going on for years all over the country. It was a Kentucky cop who took it seriously. Also hearing Casey pronounce my home town as Lou Uh Vull like we do instead of Loo Eee Ville like most people do made me swoon! Great job, Casefile team!

Violet Datura

God this was a frustrating case to hear- I’m left stunned that SO many people failed to act to protect Laura. Listening to her further be blamed by her employer for the ordeal she endured at the hands of the perpetrators was blood boiling and utterly disgusting- how exactly was she meant to escape a locked room naked?? Thank you Casefile for bringing attention to this case.

Rosie Overell

Glad the young woman got a payout from macdonalds. But the culprit should be in jail!!!!

RubySpook

At the time I mean

Nora Charles

I have family in loouhvull and I loved it!

Nora Charles

I would like to think my abrasive personality would have let me tell the so called cop to fuck right off. It's hard to imagine grown adults following such orders over the phone. Ask the cop for his badge number and call the station to confirm. Monday morning quarterbacking but still.

Julia Park

He was good, tho. I watched Compliance (the movie) last night, and it really did a good job depicting just how manipulative this guy was. He was one sick puppy.

Oh my god, this is the most unbelievable situation I’ve ever heard. If I’d not heard this case through Casefile, I’d say this was was scam/deception. I do feel horrible for Laura, things like this should never happen to ANYONE, but sorry, all people involved, they should have known that this would never be something the police would do. As for Suzanne’s fiancé he should have been thrown in jail for rape. I can honestly say, I’ve never seen human beings, brought to this lowest common denominator, and hope I never do again.

Sean Boulden

What happened to common sense??

Sean Boulden

Have any of the manes been changed in this episode? I'm asking because I Google Laura Fletcher and nothing comes up. I Google McDonalds strip search case and the name Louis Ogborn comes up. Reading the article I ask myself why in the hell Donna Summers was awarded any money at all by a jury? For being gullible to fall for phone deception? And then McDonalds saying that Laura herself was partly responsible for that sick fucks game? I am so glad that I do not support McDonalds in any shape, form, or fashion. Don't like their food. Won't even buy a water from that establishment. I still can not understand why no one, not a single person, did not even give pause to think, maybe I should call the main manager myself just to check and see. Like seriously... I have never become this pissed off/ enraged about a case. This case just displays the stupidity and gullibleness of people and how quick people are to use the defense(EXCUSE) "I was just following orders". People like that should not be allowed to reproduce.

Megan

I swear I originally learned about this case from an old episode of Law & Order SVU where Robin Williams played the bad guy

Julia Park

He told the assistant manager that he had the store manager on the other line. He was extremely manipulative. Good for that young cook who said it was bullshit and refused to do what he was told.

Emma G

This is what happens when people are not raised to question authority figures - it creates extremely dangerous situations like this one. How could any right-thinking person believe that a genuine police officer would not only order a teenage girl to be stripped NAKED in a McDonalds office, but to perform degrading acts on her - without an actual police officer present on the scene, at that? I don't even care how manipulative the perpetrator was, common sense should've prevailed. It's even more shocking to think about the fact that this has happened not only multiple times, but almost a hundred times. Never has a case made me want to punch a wall so hard. So frustrating! Very well done as usual though, Casefile.

Iain Strachan

Look up the Milgrim experiment on YouTube.

Iain Strachan

The most disturbing case I've heard in a long time!

MM

Thank you for this interesting case. Very well done as usual.

Robyn Stephens

Loved this episode. Engaging for sure. I’m so shocked that so many people fell for this.

Chris Clements

I saw a movie about this once called "Compliance" and I can't believe it was a real story.

So Real

I feel like this one may be really difficult to listen to and am contemplating skipping. From a PTSD perspective, is it more triggering than others?

Nicole McNeil

I don’t usually have trouble listening to true crime events, but this one was beyond troubling. When the narrator was describing her experience I felt like I was there and it was chilling. I went through an incredible range of emotions from disgust and physical revolt to tears and anger. I do not have PTSD and I found this episode disturbing, so if you do listen proceed with caution.... describes the survivor’s experience of assault in GRAPHIC detail.

Stefan Bradley

^^ sounds like Casefile should put a warning on this one

Nicole McNeil

I think the reason I found this episode more disturbing than others was because it clearly demonstrated how many people could have intervened and stopped the assault from happening at any moment, but were instead compliant for a number of different reasons (stupidity, evil, chain of command).

Nicole Avery

The name was changed in the episode for the victims privacy. Maybe you can edit her name out of your comment? I know it’s easy enough to look up the details and names online; however, the victim would prefer not to be named in the podcast, and I’m assuming, the comments as well! Completely agree with your commentary!

Leah Budd

What?? Amazing! There are people from right around the area that do not pronounce Louisville properly! I was quite impressed! Big credit given to Casey for the proper pronunciation of Louisville 👏👏👏

Sarah Rogers

I just listened to this using podcast addict with my provided rss code and there were ads in the episode. Has that happened for anyone else?

I pay Patreon $5 a month and get no adverts. Most things are subscription or ads these days.

Anyone who wants more info on tge processes going on, go to the official website of The Milgram Experiment. It explains a lot.

This is America right here. The most propagandized and incarcerated country IN THE WORLD! We're just always asking for authority figures to 'take care of us'. We cannot understand how to take care of ourselves or help others. Hundreds of years of demoralization and here we are in 2022 still asking for it. It's disgusting and nuts.
