Beyond the Headlines

The abyss is complex. I am here to map it.

I am Jonathan Silva, the founder and lead researcher of Shadows by Silva.

While the world is fascinated by the "what" and the "who" of true crime, I have always been obsessed with the "why" and the "how".

This project is not about glorifying monsters. It is an independent archive dedicated to forensic analysis, criminal psychology, and the scientific methods that bring justice to the silent. I dig through declassified files, autopsy reports, and court transcripts to deconstruct the logic of evil.

I don't just tell stories. I examine the evidence.

No Sensationalism

We focus on facts, not fear.

We respect the victims by sticking to the forensic truth, avoiding rumor and speculation.

Science First

Logic over emotion.

From DNA phenotyping to geographic profiling, we explore the technology that solves the unsolvable.

The Human Element

Understanding the mind.

To stop a predator, one must understand how they think. We analyze the psychology, not just the crime scene.
