A special LIVE event by Without Warning Private Investigation
With HOST: Sheila Wysocki
True crime is everywhere.
Understanding it is not.
True crime has never been more popular. Stories circulate fast. Opinions form even faster. But visibility is not the same as understanding.
PRIVATE EYECON™ was created for people who want to go beyond narratives and into the work itself. This is not a fan convention and it is not built around spectacle.
It is a three-day investigative experience designed to show how real cases are examined, challenged, and revisited—often years later.
From May 15–17, 2026, PRIVATE EYECON™ will take place at Middle Tennessee State University’s Criminal Justice Department in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, just outside Nashville. The setting reflects the purpose: structured learning, professional insight, and respect for the people at the center of every case.
PRIVATE EYECON™ is a Brand NEW live investigative environment.
Why PRIVATE EYECON™ Exists
Because, the work behind investigations is often missing from the conversation.
- As interest in true crime has grown, nuance has often been lost. Cases are reduced to simplified explanations, clear villains, and quick conclusions. That is rarely how real investigations work.
- PRIVATE EYECON™ was created to restore context.
- Here, investigations are examined as disciplined, imperfect work. Attendees learn how evidence is weighed, how credibility is tested, and why some cases stall despite years of effort. Legal limits, forensic uncertainty, and human judgment are part of every discussion.
- The focus is not on solving a case in a weekend.
It is on understanding how professionals approach the search for truth.
PRIVATE EYECON™ exists to put context back into true crime.
What You Will Gain
Understanding the process changes everything.
PRIVATE EYECON™ is about learning how professionals search for answers—not about offering conclusions.
Attendees will gain insight into:
- How investigators assess timelines and contradictions
- Why some cases lose momentum
- How forensic evidence is interpreted and challenged
- How early decisions shape a case for years
- How legal standards limit what can move forward
- How assumptions and media narratives influence outcomes
- This knowledge changes how you consume true crime—and how you talk about it.
This event teaches how professionals think. You leave seeing cases differently.

PRIVATE EYECON™ is for thoughtful true-crime followers.
PRIVATE EYECON™ draws informed women who follow true crime with care and curiosity, as well as investigative professionals seeking deeper perspective.
It is especially valuable for those who want to understand why cases unfold the way they do—and why some never reach resolution.
This is not a passive experience.
At PRIVATE EYECON™, access means working through material alongside professionals. Attendees examine case information, observe expert disagreement, and participate in guided deliberations shaped by real-world constraints.
Attendance is intentionally limited. This allows meaningful discussion, thoughtful pacing, and space for questions that do not fit into soundbites.
Where learning becomes tangible
Throughout the weekend, attendees will review curated materials, observe expert analysis, and participate in controlled simulations designed to reflect real investigative conditions.
Additional off-site learning experiences, coordinated with professional partners, will extend the classroom environment. Specifics are intentionally limited to preserve the integrity of these experiences.
One track. Three days. Real focus.
Attendees select one learning track for the full event.
Tracks run concurrently and are designed for immersion.
- Sleuth Track explores how leads are vetted, facts are verified, and narratives can either fuel justice or quietly derail it.
- Investigator Track drops you into the field, tracing evidence from the scene through forensic analysis while confronting bias, behavior, and real-world investigative judgment.
- Legal Track brings the courtroom to life, revealing how cases are built, tested, and ultimately decided when the stakes are real and the pressure is on.
This structure ensures depth rather than sampling.
Victim advocacy starts with careful investigation.
PRIVATE EYECON™ is founded and hosted by Sheila Wysocki, a private investigator known for her work on complex cold cases and her long-standing advocacy for victims and their families.
Her investigations have contributed to civil verdicts, national policy discussions, and renewed attention to cases once considered closed. Her work is grounded in one core belief: families deserve careful, ethical, and thorough investigative work—especially when answers are hard to find.
That belief shapes every aspect of PRIVATE EYECON™, from the material presented to the way discussions are guided.
