@Legally Bland - might be a bit early to ask if there is any news on his preliminary hearing & next hearing?

I couldn't find anything (over here) - just 2019 articles are coming up for me.

TIA if you find something!

On Aug. 4, 2019, Peter Chadwick, a real estate magnate who fled the country in 2015 after being charged with his wife’s murder, was apprehended in Mexico. At a press conference two days later, Newport Beach Chief Jon Lewis credited an unusual source for helping with the investigation: the true-crime podcast "Countdown to Capture," launched by his California police department a year earlier.

“What this podcast did was increase awareness and generate leads for us. It also kept this case in the forefront of people’s minds,” Lewis said. “It’s our belief that we put pressure on Peter, which is something that we wanted to do as well, and that was the reason we chose to use this vehicle.”

Before 2018, true-crime podcasts were hosted mostly by investigative journalists, comedians and other media personalities. But in the wake of “Countdown to Capture,” other law enforcement agencies have embraced the medium. There’s “Break in the Case" from the New York City Police Department and “Silicon Valley Beat” from the Mountain View (California) Police Department. Last year, the Winchester Police Department in northern Virginia detailed one of its cold cases in a podcast titled “Defrost."

@Legally Bland - too early to ask for next court date? Hopefully he DID get arraigned yesterday.

TIA!

Thank you @Legally Bland ! Wondering why if she was heard on her arraignment hearing why there is another arraignment hearing on 12/10... strange if you ask me!

Yeah, it'd be nice if there was some reporting to clear things up. Even a solitary tweet would do.

Thank you @Legally Bland !

edited to add - this guy sure has a lot of arraignment hearings?! Wonder if that is wrong... I have another case where it says arraignment in the jail site, but court site says something different.
