Crime junkies, if you live in Southern California, you might know the name Grant Robichow. But if you are like me and somehow you completely missed it in 2018 when this orthopedic surgeon and former Bravo reality star and his girl next door girlfriend were charged with rape, listen up. Because as the case made its way through the Orange County court system,

many more women came forward to say that the attractive young couple drugged and raped them. Robichow and his girlfriend claim that they're just being punished for their party lifestyle. But here's the thing, you can't spell lifestyle without lies. This is a case that you can't unpack in just 40 minutes. So we partnered with journalist and podcaster, Justine Harmon, to tell you this unbelievable story

in an all-new audio Chuck show called O.C. Swingers. Here, take a listen. What is a swinger? Is it someone who engages in group sex with a rotating roster of willing partners? Or is it someone who switches sides so often that the line between hero and villain fades? What does a swinger look like?

A shaggy-haired hippie smoking a joint? An elected official addressing the press corps in a suit and tie? Or a clean-cut doctor with a steady hand and a reassuring smile? Stunning new details are coming out about the Orange County surgeon and his girlfriend accused of being serial rapists.

On October 17th, 2018, prominent Newport Beach surgeon Dr. Grant Robichow and his girlfriend, Sarissa Riley, were charged with 17 felonies, including raping and drugging multiple women. During a search of their $2 million beach house, police officers found illegal assault rifles, piles of homemade videos, and controlled substances, including cocaine, mushrooms, MDMA,

and over 100 liquid grams of GHB, more commonly known as the date rape drug. We believe the defendants use their good looks and charm to lower the inhibitions of their potential prey. We've all heard of a wolf dressed up in sheep's clothing, while a wolf can wear scrubs or doctor's clothing, or a wolf can be a beautiful woman. But were Grant Robichow and Sarissa Riley

the Bonnie and Clyde of drugging girls as one victim told detectives? Or were they sexually liberated swingers, framed by a conviction-hungry prosecutor? There is not a single piece of evidence or video or photo that shows an unconscious or incapacitated woman being sexually assaulted. And what happens to seven women,

who in order to see any kind of justice served, have to keep reliving the worst night of their lives over and over again? We went to the jacuzzi. He started trying to take off my top. I told him not to. Put my top back on. He kept kind of grabbing at it.

Over the course of my new 10-part series OC Swingers, you'll go back to the beginning of one of the most unbelievable rape cases in modern history. You mentioned, you don't know how many victims, how many videos do you have of different victims? Many. Dozens, hundreds?

Hundreds. More than a thousand? I think so. And you'll get a front-row seat to the courtroom drama as it unfolds in real time. So if you're a slinger and you're engaging in sexual activities that most people don't do, then isn't it foreseeable that you're

going to encounter a woman that doesn't want to do it either? How could this case just simply go away? Something is in this here. I mean, there's something that the public doesn't know. From Audio Chuck, I'm Justine Harmon. And this is OC Swingers. We premiere March 29th. Listen wherever you get your fix.
