Other CrimeCon 2023 Panels
When fans aren't learning more about Oxygen's shows, they can join panels featuring victim advocates and more. On Day 2, Gabby Petito's parents will participate in a conversation about their daughter's life and death, as well as the events that led to her tragic murder in 2021.
"Gabby’s parents and stepparents, Nichole and Jim Schmidt, and Joe and Tara Petito are changing the narrative and stigmas associated with domestic violence. Through the efforts of the Gabby Petito Foundation and the spirit of who Gabby was, the hope is to make sure this kind of tragedy never befalls another family," according to the event description.
Additionally, the prosecutors and defense attorneys who took part in the trial against disgraced South Carolina attorney Alex Murdaugh earlier this year will also be at the convention. Those who watched the trial, which ended with Murdaugh being convicted in his wife Maggie and son Paul's murders, can meet Creighton Waters, Jim Griffin, and Dick Harpootlian during separate meet and greets on Day 2.
