In this episode of Footnotes on Crime , we are joined by Collier Landry, survivor, cinematographer, podcast host, and advocate whose life story has become a powerful testament to resilience, healing, and reclaiming identity after unimaginable trauma. At the age of eleven, Collier’s world changed forever when his father murdered his mother. In an act of extraordinary courage, Collier later testified in court against his father, helping secure his conviction. Decades later, he would confront that trauma publicly through the critically acclaimed documentary A Murder in Mansfield , an intimate exploration of grief, truth, reconciliation, and survival.
