In addition to reporting for "48 Hours," Moriarty's work is featured on all CBS News broadcasts and platforms, including "CBS Sunday Morning," "CBS This Morning" and CBSN, CBS News' 24/7 digital streaming network.

At CBS News, Moriarty has covered some of the biggest crime and justice stories of our time, including the wrongful conviction of Ryan Ferguson, the death of JonBenet Ramsey, the ongoing story of millionaire Robert Durst, and the controversial case of Brooke Skylar Richardson, a young Ohio woman tried – and acquitted – for murdering her newborn baby.

She has also reported on such major national and international news stories as the death of Princess Diana; the mass shootings in Aurora, Colorado. and Newtown, Connecticut; the Oklahoma City bombing; the war in Iraq; and the heist of artwork from the Isabella Gardner Art Museum in Boston.

PAT CRAIG - From Rockstar to Best Selling Author of Amish fiction and WAR BOOKS!! Yipes!

Pat Craig was born with perfect pitch and the knowledge of how to pitch himself successfully in a variety of artistic endeavors. How did Pat go from doing radio with Burl in 1964 to being a best selling author by 2020....and more importantly how did he land such a hot wife?

 

Amazon Best-selling author, Patrick E. Craig, is a lifelong writer and musician who left a successful performance career in 1986 to become a pastor. After pastoring, teaching and speaking at seminars in churches on the west coast for many years, he retired in 2007 to concentrate on writing and publishing fiction books. In November 2011, Patrick signed a three-book deal with Harvest House Publishers to publish his Apple Creek Dreams series. His latest books, The Amish Heiress, The Amish Princess, and The Mennonite Queen, and the reprinted Apple Creek Dreams series are published by his own imprint, P&J Publishing, and all have spent time on the "Hot New releases" and "Amazon Best Seller" lists on Amazon. Harlequin Publishing recently purchased The Amish Heiress for their new Walmart Amish promotion series and that book will is now available in Walmart stores across the country. He also recently signed with Elk Lake Publishing to publish his Middle School/YA mystery series, The Adventures of Punkin and Boo. Patrick is represented by the Steve Laube Agency.

Patrick has an extensive background as a writer. Throughout his school years he edited high school and college newspapers. In 1964 he won a national editorial contest sponsored by the Wall Street Journal for an editorial he wrote on the death of President Kennedy, and, in the same year, acted as Senior Editor for a special issue of the University of Washington Evergreen during a summer internship for High School Editors. After a year at Whitman College, where he was a journalism major, he moved to the San Francisco Bay area where he became a fixture on the local music scene.

As a professional songwriter, he wrote with and for such artists as Bill Champlin (Chicago), David Jenkins (Pablo Cruise), Buddy Miles, The Tazmanian Devils, and many others in the secular music industry. His songs were recorded by such artists and music groups as West Coast Natural Gas, Indian Pudding and Pipe, Joey Covington's Fat Fandango, The Sons of Champlin, The Tazmanian Devils, Buddy Miles, David Jenkins, Laura Allen, The Fairfax Street Choir and in Europe by the Swedish Band Seid. He had two music albums released on Warner Brothers records with The Tazmanian Devils and contributed as a performer and recording engineer to best selling albums by artists such as Chris Isaak and others. Recently a compilation of his early work was released in Switzerland as a specialty music album.

As a performer he played keyboards and sang with bands such as West Coast Natural Gas, Indian Pudding and Pipe, Van Morrison, Joe E. Covington, The Kantner-Balin Band, The New Boogaloo Express, The Fairfax Street Choir, The Tazmanian Devils, David Jenkins, Buddy Miles, and many others. He retired from professional music in 1986 and attended Bible College, after which he became a Pastor, Worship Leader, Speaker and Seminar Leader in churches throughout California and The Pacific Northwest.

Now as a full-time fiction writer he turns out two to three books every year and is fast-gaining a reputation in the literary world.

In the early 1960's, Pat was Burl Barer's c0-host on the Wa-Hi Radio show on KTEL  By  the late 60's Pat was part of the San Francisco psychedelic music scene.

 

CHRIS BARTH LIVE 2PM PT/5PM ET ON TRUE CRIME UNCENSORED SATURDAY!

"I hope that THE GARDEN STATE PARKWAY MURDERS: A COLD CASE MYSTERY offers New Jersey State Police detectives some fresh leads and new names to consider, and inspires their Major Crime Unit to give a second look at persons of interest they might have previously overlooked or disregarded."

Christian Barth manifests the two greatest characteristics of a successful true crime writer -- a love of research and a quest for truth.  He also has the bravery required to endure an hour with fellow crime writer Burl Barer and fact checker Mark Boyer on True Crime Uncensored on OutlawRadioLive.com

Burl, high risk for the virus due to age, pre-existing conditions, etc. is still doing the show from home, and Chris is mastering the art of conference calling to link up with Burl and Outlaw Radio.  A noble experiment daring enough to impress Madame Curie, Dr. Ehrlich, Judge Crater and Carl Denham (the guy brought King Kong to Broadway)

Chris has already done Dan's True Murder show, Alan Warren's House of Mystery, and maybe Jack Paar and Les Crane's programs, too, so he should be experienced enough to handle our show.  Listen live from Outlawradiolive.com 2pm Pacific Time, 5pm Eastern Time and available by Monday on Anchor.FM, Spotify, iTunes and all the rest. 

Special thanks to Douglas Shearer,our archivist for helping pull this one together,
