Kouri Richins Trial: Wildest Moments & The Unshakeable PI (Part 1)

Tue, 28 Apr 2026 21:00:00 -0000

Episode Title: Kouri Richins Trial: The PI Who Cracked the Case (Part 1)

Kouri Richins was convicted of murdering her husband, Eric, with five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in a Moscow Mule she made for him. But while the world was focused on her children’s book about grief, Tyrella was focused on the three weeks of absolute courtroom chaos that led to the verdict.

In Part 1 of our "Best of the Trial" series, we aren’t just rehashing the timeline—we’re talking about the witnesses who actually made the case. From a Private Investigator with a GoPro and a fused neck who became the defense's worst nightmare, to the heartbreaking testimony of a best friend who realized she was actually a target.

The Quick Reset: The Moscow Mule, the $2 million life insurance policy, and the book that started it all.
Todd Gabler, PI: Why a man with 34 years of defense experience ended up being the State’s star witness.
The "Sexting" Cross: How the defense tried to smear Eric Richins, and why it completely backfired.
The Forensic Accountant: Breaking down the -$1.6 million net worth and the "death exit ramp."
Chelsea Barney: The heavy cost of a 20-year friendship with a fraudster.

The Brenizer Family Murders [Bruce Brenizer]

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 01:56:00 -0000

In 1991 in a small, rural town in Wisconsin, five members of the Brenizer/Berentson family left their home to go shopping. When they didn’t return, 15-year-old Bruce was concerned that his father, stepmother, and sisters were missing. As the investigation unfolded, rumors of an ax murderer or satanic worship were afoot, but when the truth was revealed, it was much worse than anyone in this small town could imagine.

Solved Cold Case: The Murder of Danni Houchins

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 22:00:00 -0000

In September of 1996, 15-year-old Danielle “Danni” Houchins was found lifeless and face down in a marshy area in Belgrade, Montana. The local sheriff’s department ruled her cause of death as drowning and her manner of death as undetermined. The sheriff told the press that there were no indications of foul play, despite autopsy findings showing the exact opposite. For 24 years, Danni’s case continued to grow cold, despite her family’s insistence that her death wasn’t an accident until a retired LAPD detective entered the chat and refused to quit.

The Afroman Trial Explained: White Cops Hear Rap for First Time

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 21:00:00 -0000

What happens when you turn a "bullshit" police raid into a viral rap song? In August 2022, the Adams County Sheriff’s Office raided Afroman’s home looking for a basement dungeon that didn't exist. When no charges were filed, Afroman did what he does best: he made music. Using security and bodycam footage, he released hits like "Lemon Pound Cake" and "Randy Walters," leading seven officers to sue him for defamation and false light.

Join Tyrella and Nikita as they break down the March 2026 civil trial, the "actual malice" standard for public officials, and the "diabolically funny" moments in the courtroom—from "reshuffling" seized cash to a witness who didn't know if his own wife had cheated. It’s a masterclass in the First Amendment, parody as criticism, and why you should never mess with Afroman's mom’s pound cake.

Operation Shattered Shield: The NOPD’s Most Corrupt Era

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 21:00:00 -0000

In the early 1990s, New Orleans was known as the "Murder Capital of America," but the most dangerous criminals weren't just on the streets—some were wearing badges. Today on This Feels Criminal, Tyrella and Nikita break down Operation Shattered Shield, the massive FBI sting that exposed deep-seated corruption within the NOPD.

We follow the story of the Hardy Brothers, a violent drug syndicate protected by the very officers sworn to stop them. At the center of it all is Officer Len Davis, a man so feared he was nicknamed "The Desire Projects Terrorist." When 32-year-old mother Kim Groves filed a brutality complaint against him, she had no idea she was signing her own death warrant.

In this episode, we discuss:

The Hardy Boys: How Wayne and Paul Hardy built a drug empire with help from inside the police department.
The FBI Sting: How an undercover agent posing as a Miami dealer caught NOPD officers guarding shipments of cocaine.
The Betrayal of Kim Groves: The heartbreaking story of a mother who stood up for her community and the chilling moment her murder was caught on an FBI wire.
The Aftermath: The fallout of the 2012 DOJ consent decree and the quest for reform in New Orleans.

The Au Pair Affair Part 2: Brendan Banfield Takes the Stand | The Verdict & Sentencing

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 17:52:00 -0000

"It’s easier to fall in love with someone that saved you."

Those were the words of Brendan Banfield as he attempted to explain away an affair, a dead wife, and a dead stranger to a jury of twelve. In Part 2 of our deep dive into the VA v. Brendan Banfield trial, we move past the "catfish" plot and into the courtroom moments that sealed the defendant's fate.

In this episode, we discuss:

Brendan’s Performance: Was he a grieving husband or a cold-blooded manipulator? We analyze his claims that Christine could speak after seven stab wounds to the neck.
The Forensic "Gotcha": Why the defense’s own digital investigator became the prosecution’s best witness during cross-examination.
The Fatal Flaw: The specific pattern of FetLife logins that proved "Anastasia 9" only existed when Brendan or Juliana were home.
The Rebuttal: How a brief testimony from Brendan’s supervisor, T. Smith Patrick, turned a "work meeting" alibi into a documented lie.
Closure: The sentencing of Juliana Magalhães and what this case says about the "Double Murder" plot that nearly worked.

Au Pair Affair Trial (Brendan Banfield) - Part 1: The Plan and The Prosecution

Wed, 25 Feb 2026 00:48:00 -0000

n the first installment of this explosive trial coverage, we dive into the Commonwealth’s case against federal agent Brendan Banfield. What initially appeared to be a tragic home invasion and the heroic defense of his wife, Christine, quickly unraveled into a twisted plot involving an affair with the family’s 22-year-old au pair, Juliana Magalhaes.

We break down the prosecution’s opening statements, which allege Brendan masterminded a "fake rape fantasy" on FetLife to lure an unsuspecting man to his home—setting the stage for a double murder he hoped to blame on an intruder. Hear the chilling details of the initial 911 calls and the star witness testimony of Juliana Magalhaes, who describes the moments Brendan allegedly turned a knife on his own wife.

The New Elizabeth Smart Documentary: What Netflix Left Out

Wed, 18 Feb 2026 00:49:00 -0000

Netflix documentary Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart gave us a definitive look at one of America’s most harrowing cases—this time, told entirely in Elizabeth’s own voice. But even a feature-length doc can’t cover everything.

In this episode of This Feels Criminal, we’re breaking down the documentary and layering in the raw, deeply personal details Elizabeth shared during her recent milestone interview on Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard.

In this episode, we discuss:

The "Parenting" Perspective: How Elizabeth navigates teaching her own children about safety and body autonomy without passing on her trauma.
Outsmarting the Captors: The specific psychological tactics Elizabeth used to manipulate her captors toward her own rescue—details that go deeper than the documentary’s timeline.
The Faith Factor: A look at her evolved relationship with her upbringing and how she processed the "twisted prophecy" used against her.
Healing vs. Heroism: Why Elizabeth rejects the "victim" label and how she really feels about being the face of child safety advocacy today.

Whether you’ve watched the doc or are hearing these updates for the first time, join us as we explore the resilience of a woman who didn't just survive—she outplayed her circumstances.

Sarah Grace Patrick: Do the Mountains of Evidence Exist? (Part 2)

Tue, 10 Feb 2026 22:00:00 -0000

In Part 1, we looked at the TikToks that turned a community against a grieving teenager. But is there a darker side to this story? Today, we’re digging into the 'mountains of evidence' the state claims to have—and the shocking details about the Brock family’s past that the investigators might have overlooked.

Was Sarah Grace Patrick a master manipulator, or is she the victim of a rush to judgment? The second half of this investigation starts now.

The TikTok Teen Who "Performed" Her Grief? (Sarah Grace Patrick) | Part 1

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 01:34:00 -0000

On February 20, 2025 16-year old Sarah Grace Patrick called 911 to report her mother Kristen Brock and stepfather James Brock had been shot to death. They had been found by her half sister who was 5 years old at the time. Understandably, the small community of Carrollton was shocked and terrified that someone could murder two people in their beds as they slept. Thankfully, Sarah Grace and her young sister were safe and unharmed. As time went on, Sarah Grace did what many teenagers do to express themselves- she got on TikTok. She would post videos and slideshows grieving her loss as well as asking for help in solving the murder that seemed to have no leads. Then, in July of 2025 she was arrested and charged as an adult with double homicide. The police believed that she had murdered her parents and left their bodies for her young sister to find and then proceeded to pretend she was grieving publicly for attention. Today, we are going to dive into this case and discuss the road so far- Sarah’s upbringing and family life, the investigation into the murders and what evidence the state may have in their case against Sarah Grace Patrick.

Lover, Stalker, Killer: Beyond the Netflix Doc | The Cari Farver Case

Tue, 27 Jan 2026 22:00:00 -0000

Cari Farver vanished without a trace in 2012, but what followed was a years-long digital nightmare that left friends, family, and investigators questioning everything they thought they knew. After her disappearance, texts and messages began pouring in from Cari’s accounts, angry, erratic, and sometimes cruel, painting a picture of a woman on the run. But as the harassment escalated, a darker truth slowly emerged: someone else was pulling the strings. In this episode, we walk through the tangled web of obsession, identity theft, and deception at the heart of the case. We’ll explore the relationships that set everything into motion and the relentless investigation that finally uncovered what really happened to Cari. Ultimately, this is a story about control, digital footprints, and how far one person was willing to go to erase another.

The Cruise Ship Death of Anna Kepner

Tue, 20 Jan 2026 22:43:00 -0000

November 7th, 2025, 18-year-old Anna Marie Kepner was found dead under a bed aboard the Carnival Horizon naked and covered in life jackets.

But while investigators tried to figure out what happened in that cabin, the deeper question was already forming: How did every adult in her world fail her long before that cruise left Miami?

Because while Anna was trying to grow up, the adults around her lived by their own motto:
Conflict Rules Everything Around Me — C.R.E.A.M., get the tension. Toxic bad blood, ya’ll.

And once you understand the years of instability swirling around Anna: the custody fights, the restraining orders, the rotating step-parents, the teenage babysitter who became her stepmom, the new stepbrother later named as a suspect... you start to see how the stage was set for a tragedy that should never have happened.

The Murder of Sandra Birchmore- Part 2

Tue, 09 Dec 2025 22:00:00 -0000

In February of 2021, police officers performed a welfare check on 23-year-old Sandra Birchmore in Canton, Massachusetts. When they gained entry to her apartment, they found the young teacher’s aide dead in her bedroom from what they determined (after 4 hours) was a suicide.

The investigation revealed a horrifying story of grooming and abuse, all stemming from local police officers, and leading to the murder of Sandra and her unborn baby.

The Kidnapping of Jaycee Dugard: 18 Years Hidden in Plain Sight

Tue, 25 Nov 2025 21:00:00 -0000

In 1991, 11-year-old Jaycee Lee Dugard was abducted on her way to the school bus in South Lake Tahoe, California. What followed was one of the most shocking and heartbreaking cases in modern true crime—eighteen years of captivity in a hidden backyard compound, two daughters born in secret, and repeated missed opportunities by law enforcement and parole officials who visited the home over fifty times.

In this episode, we break down Jaycee’s story as told in A Stolen Life and the A&E documentary The Abduction of Jaycee Dugard, exploring how she survived, how she stayed hidden in plain sight for nearly two decades, and how a chance encounter at UC Berkeley finally revealed the truth.

Requested by: Marissa Seymour, Carly Bodick, Alyssa Crabtree, Briana Huizar, Rachel, Salome Pasch, and Amber Rose.

Taylor Swift vs DJ David Mueller Groping Trial

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 22:00:00 -0000

In 2015, a former Denver radio DJ filed a civil suit against our queen, Taylor Swift, claiming that she’d ruined his career. Taylor immediately countersued the DJ, alleging that not only had he ruined his OWN career, he’d done it by groping her underneath her skirt at a meet and greet in 2013. A trial followed in 2017, with Taylor testifying on the stand about what had happened, reliving that memory and all of the feelings of embarrassment, horror, disgust, confusion, and fear in front of a courtroom. In doing so, Taylor was able to shine a light on the fact that sexual assault can happen to anyone, and that coming forward and telling your story can help others do the same.

The Cardi B Trial Was ICONIC- Part 2

Tue, 11 Nov 2025 22:00:00 -0000

Part 2 of 2

When the plaintiff’s expert is a plastic surgeon who couldn’t rule out a dwarf with razor-sharp toenails for the scratches, this trial felt less like Law & Order and more like Real Housewives: Beverly Hills Courthouse Edition. From the OB-GYN and receptionist who witnessed the fight to the psychologist who said the plaintiff’s test answers were “two in a billion,” the defense delivers receipts – while plaintiff’s counsel Ron Rosen Janfazza completely unravels.

Tyrella and Nikita break down the defense’s strategy, the jaw-dropping cross-examinations, the lightning-fast verdict, and the post-trial fallout – including Janfazza’s sanctions, his 2023 mistrial meltdown, and the now-infamous “vaginal discharge” argument NO ONE asked for.

The Cardi B Trial was ICONIC- Part 1

Wed, 05 Nov 2025 01:28:00 -0000

Cardi B’s 2025 courtroom showdown with former Beverly Hills security guard Emani Ellis was supposed to be about an alleged “violent attack.” What we got instead? Chaos. From witnesses who “weren’t there – except maybe in spirit,” to whether or not Cardi B does in fact have TWO HANDS.And Cardi B takes the stand… and proceeds to annihilate the chaos of the plaintiff’s case with a single, iconic “She looks… security heavy.”

In this first half of our two-part breakdown, Tyrella and Nikita unpack the plaintiff’s side – the claims, the testimony, the courtroom absurdities, and why the jury looked confused before Cardi B even spoke a word.

Tue, 29 Jul 2025 21:00:00 -0000

A real-life maritime mystery meets true crime tragedy in this jaw-dropping case that rocked the Northeast. In 2016, Nathan Carman was rescued from a life raft after a supposed boating accident that left his mother, Linda, missing at sea.

The Sleepwalking Killer? The Bizarre Case of Joseph Anthony Mitchell

Tue, 08 Jul 2025 21:00:00 -0000

TW: Child Murder

In the early morning hours of September 22, 2010, Christine Perolini’s world was shattered when her 13-year-old daughter ran into her bedroom screaming, “Daddy’s trying to hurt us!” Minutes later, Christine’s 4-year-old son, Blake Mitchell, was unresponsive, and her husband, Joseph Anthony Mitchell, was barricaded in another room—covered in blood with self-inflicted stab wounds.

Joseph admitted to killing Blake and trying to murder his two other children… but claimed he had no memory of any of it. His defense? He was sleepwalking.

In this episode, we dive into the heartbreaking timeline, the chilling 911 call, the controversial trial, and the shocking verdict that left even the jury questioning what really happened that night. Was this the rare case of a “sleepwalking killer,” or something far more sinister?

Mon, 16 Jun 2025 16:30:00 -0000

In this bonus episode, we’re breaking down Hank Brennan’s full closing argument in the Karen Read trial—and y’all, it’s a ride.

From “she was drunk so she must’ve done it” to “she didn’t mean to hit him… but maybe she was enraged and wanted the last word,” Brennan makes some bold claims—and we’re analyzing every twist. We’ll walk through the key contradictions, the missing proof points, and the prosecutor’s surprising strategy that left many wondering if he accidentally made the defense’s case.

We’re talking:

Brennan’s boulder-off-a-bridge analogy 👀
The “I hit him” vs “Did I hit him?” statements
Why Jen McCabe suddenly became the villain
The taillight evidence he didn’t trust… but wants the jury to
And a whole lot of “we don’t know” from the Commonwealth’s side

Let’s be honest—did Hank Brennan just crash his own case?

Danielle Thomas: The 911 Call They Never Answered

Tue, 10 Jun 2025 21:00:00 -0000

In the early morning hours of June 24th, 2012, 27-year-old Danielle Thomas called 911 from her apartment in Queens. She didn’t speak directly to the call taker, but she could be heard pleading for help in the background. Her boyfriend, Jason Bohn, was refusing to let her leave. Two days later, Danielle’s body was found in her bathtub, covered in bruises and marks. Jason had disappeared, leaving a note on her body, apologizing for what he’d done. Investigators soon learned that Ivy-League lawyer Jason Bohn had been abusing women for years, and that Danielle’s murder was the culmination of months of emotional and physical abuse.

Too Young to Run: The Murder of Annie Kasprzak

Tue, 03 Jun 2025 21:00:00 -0000

Anne "Annie" Kasprzak was a typical teenager in many ways, but she also had struggles many teens don’t face. She went through the foster care system for many years before finding her adoptive family. Because of this, she had a hard time trusting that anyone would love her wholly. Despite being only 15-years-old, she desperately wanted a family of her own. In her desperation, she told her on again/off again boyfriend, Chris, as well as her friends and family, that she was pregnant. Chris’s response to this announcement was her murder.

Who Shot Officer Martin Ganz? How the "Sunglasses Bandit" Became a Cop Killer

Tue, 27 May 2025 19:00:00 -0000

In December of 1993, Officer Martin Ganz was on patrol when he pulled over a car for a traffic violation. As he went to make contact with the driver, shots rang out, and as Officer Ganz tried to retreat, the driver followed him, executing him behind his police cruiser. An investigation followed, and although investigators were certain they had the right man, a lack of evidence prevented an arrest from being made. A few months later though, the man struck again, and justice was finally found in the murder of Officer Martin Ganz.

Fri, 16 May 2025 19:00:00 -0000

This is the perfect primer if you’re just diving into the case — or if you want a refresher before following the trial coverage.

The Salem Witch Trials

Tue, 13 May 2025 20:00:00 -0000

In 1692, Salem Massachusetts was overrun by the Devil himself. Or that’s what the Puritan men running the Massachusetts Bay Colony believed. Hundreds of men and women, mostly women, were accused of witchcraft, and more often than not, by a group of young girls. Throughout the witch trials that took place throughout that year, 18 people were hanged and one man was pressed to death.

370: The Disappearance of Madalina Cojocari (Unsolved)

Tue, 22 Apr 2025 21:00:00 -0000

On December 15th, 2022, Diana Cojocari arrived for a scheduled meeting at her daughter’s middle school with the guidance counselor in Cornelius, North Carolina. Her 11-year-old daughter, Madalina, hadn’t been to school in more than 3 weeks. Diana had promised to bring Madalina with her to the meeting, but she came alone. It didn’t take long for school officials to realize that something was wrong. Madalina was missing, and her mother and stepfather never reported her disappearance to police until that day at the school. What followed has been an investigation littered with inconsistent timelines, conflicting statements, and strange behavior, none of which have led to Madalina’s whereabouts. Law enforcement continues to search for the now-teenager, fully believing that she could possibly still be alive.

367: April Fools Pranks Gone Wrong

Tue, 01 Apr 2025 20:00:00 -0000

Before we get into some foolish April Fools pranks that didn’t quite land, let’s talk about the origin of April Fools Day. The oldest historical reference for April Fools Day comes from a Flemish poem written in 1561 about a nobleman who sent his servant on “fool’s errands” on April 1st. In about the same era in France, the people were slow to adapt to the calendar change from the last week of March to January 1st to mark the new year. It was a move from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar that was decreed by the Council of Trent. Those who struggled to adjust were called “April fools,” and many began playing tricks on them. Another reference is with the Catholic Church. In medieval France and England, a carnival of sorts, called “Feast of Fools” was held on January 1st, but was banned by the 15th century. Though, it was still held for hundreds of years, despite the ban. Then by the 19th century, April Fools’ Day was a part of American culture. Mark Twain was quoted as saying, “The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year.”

365: The Murder of Kitty Genovese and the Implementation of 911

Tue, 18 Mar 2025 20:00:00 -0000

On March 13th, 1964, 28-year-old Kitty Genovese was heading home from work in the early morning hours. After parking her car, she was making the short walk to her apartment when she heard footsteps behind her. When she attempted to flee, the man followed her and attacked. After someone saw them and yelled out, the attacker left. However, he returned and attacked Kitty for a second time. Though there were several witnesses who heard something, only two had made a call to police. The amount of witnesses was exaggerated and the details and facts of Kitty’s murder were incorrectly reported. However, Kitty’s death has resulted in several studies, laws, and the unified 911 system.

In the 1980s, NYPD detectives Louis Eppolito and Stephen Caracappa secretly worked for the mafia while on the force, betraying their badge in exchange for cash.

In April of 1992, Exxon executive Sidney Reso left for work like he did every day. When his car was discovered running in his driveway, the police and FBI were called.

After cooperating with the kidnappers and getting together the 18.5 million dollar ransom though, the kidnappers began to make sporadic contact, often days and weeks between phone calls. This lasted for 51 days before a break which led the kidnappers right to the FBI, and we ultimately found out what happened to Sidney Reso.

On February 13th, 2009, 14-year-old Amber Dubois disappeared into thin air on her way to school in San Diego County, California. There were credible leads or sightings, and it seemed as though Amber was just…gone. Almost exactly one year later, 17-year-old Chelsea King went for a run in a well-populated park, just ten miles from where Amber disappeared, and never returned. Clothing belonging to Chelsea was found nearby and a DNA match was found, leading detectives to a registered sex offender by the name of John Albert Gardner. Who was Gardner, and was he responsible for more than just Chelsea’s disappearance? Had he, just one year prior, abducted Amber Dubois off the street on her way to school?

Tue, 21 Jan 2025 20:56:00 -0000

On March 19th, 2014, school officials in Washington, DC went to a local homeless shelter to follow up on an 8-year-old student named Relisha Rudd due to her having missed more than two weeks of school. For several weeks, they’d reportedly been told by Relisha’s mother that she was under a doctor’s care. They were stunned to find out that the so-called doctor was actually a custodian at the shelter and that none of Shamika’s family members had seen her for 18 days. Where was Relisha Rudd and who was the janitor that she’d seemingly disappeared into thin air with?

355: Christa Pike- Youngest Woman on Death Row in TN

Tue, 07 Jan 2025 21:00:00 -0000

On Jan 13th, 1995 in Knoxville, TN a battered body, nude from the waist up, was found in a grizzly scene. The victim had been tortured, murdered and her skull crushed. But that's not all- she had pentagrams carved into her forehead and chest. The investigation led police to a young woman named Christa Pike- who looked innocent and even "angelic," but was pure evil. Let's take a trip down memory lane and explore one of the most shocking cases of that era. It's a gripping tale of troubled lives, a heartbreaking murder, and a courtroom drama that could have been straight out of a Law & Order rerun.

353: Recap of Sarah Boone Trial: Suitcase Killer Who Caught Herself On Video

Tue, 24 Dec 2024 19:00:00 -0000

UPDATE: She has been sentenced to life in prison since the time of this recording.

On the afternoon of Monday, February 24th, 2020, first responders in Winter Park, Florida arrived at an apartment complex to find 42-year-old Jorge Torres Jr. dead inside of the apartment he shared with girlfriend, Sarah Boone. Jorge was unfortunately past the point of being able to be revived and was pronounced dead on scene. Homicide detectives arrived on scene to question Sarah, who told them a strange tale of what happened and how she’d “accidentally” left her boyfriend zipped up inside of a suitcase, then fell asleep. However, detectives soon recovered evidence on Sarah’s own cell phone that proved that Jorge’s death may not have been a tragic accident after all. This episode discusses an overview of the case and recaps the trial which was broadcast live in 2024.

350: The Murder of Josh Niles and Amber Washburn

Tue, 03 Dec 2024 19:00:00 -0000

A former police chief orchestrates the cold-blooded murder of his wife's ex and his new girlfriend in a twisted custody battle that rocked a small New York town. When Josh Niles and Amber Washburn were gunned down in their driveway, no one suspected the mastermind was Tim Dean - an ex-police chief who crossed state lines to commit murder at his wife's behest.

This chilling true crime case reveals how a custody dispute spiraled into deadly violence when Charlene Childers lost her children due to her new husband's abuse allegations. Despite her tearful appearances at vigils and funerals, Charlene had orchestrated the entire plot, manipulating her police chief husband to eliminate her custody problem permanently.

Watch as investigators unravel an inept murder conspiracy involving rental cars, crossed jurisdictions, and a trail of evidence that led straight back to a former top cop who should have known better. This shocking story proves that sometimes the most dangerous criminals are the ones sworn to uphold the law.

ONLY 3 DAYS LEFT: Stop the Execution of Robert Roberson

Mon, 14 Oct 2024 21:20:00 -0000

On Oct. 17, Robert Roberson could be the first person in the U.S. executed based on the discredited “shaken baby syndrome” hypothesis.

Time is running out to stop the execution of Robert Roberson, on Oct. 17, and your voice could make a critical difference. Robert’s case is riddled with unscientific evidence, inaccurate and misleading medical testimony, and prejudicial treatment. This is a life that may be unjustly taken, and Gov. Greg Abbott has the power to intervene. We urge Texans to call Gov. Abbott and ask him to halt this execution, ensuring that all the facts are thoroughly reviewed.

Share his story far and wide

Social media toolkit here.

You can help stop Mr. Roberson’s unjust execution, but time is running out.

We have until Oct. 17 to stop Mr. Roberson’s execution. Here’s how you can help stop this irreversible injustice:

Call Gov. Abbott at 361-264-9653
Sign the petition to stop Mr. Roberson’s execution.
Share Mr. Roberson’s case on all social media channels using our social media toolkit.
Use your voice — create an Instagram post, reel, or TikTok to share the background of Mr. Roberson’s case, the reasons he’s innocent, and all the missteps in this miscarriage of justice, and urge your followers to sign our petition.

When Linda returned home from work that evening, she walked into something from a nightmare. Her home was ransacked and Franklin was lying on the ground bound with duct tape and he was unresponsive.

333: The Murder of Haruka Weiser

Tue, 06 Aug 2024 18:00:00 -0000

In April of 2016, UT Austin freshman Haruka Weiser left an evening dance practice to head back to her dorm. She called her roommate to let her know she was on the way, but she never made it. When she failed to show up the next morning and missed her early classes, a missing person’s report was filed, and authorities began the search for Haruka along the paths she was known to take between classes. The next day, her body was found on campus, and with help from surveillance footage, a suspect emerged and was arrested within days. Haruka’s death led to increased security on campus and left a lasting impact on the UT Austin Community.

Tue, 23 Jul 2024 16:00:00 -0000

In August of 2009, Dalia Dippolito got up early one morning and went to the gym, leaving her husband, Mike at home as he was recovering from a surgery. While at the gym, she got a call from the local Boynton Beach police saying she needed to return home immediately because something terrible had happened. She was met with police cars everywhere and crime scene tape sectioning everything off. Dalia was told that someone entered their home and killed Mike as he slept. But all wasn’t as it seemed, and a tale of murder for hire played out for everyone to watch on an episode of Cops that aired in September of 2011.

Special Announcement from KQ

Wed, 17 Jul 2024 16:37:00 -0000

Hey KQt's,

I need some time to talk to you. I wanted to let you know that Tori has left the show. We have had so much fun over the years bringing you a light true crime podcast and that won’t be changing!

While we may have a few delayed or missing over the next few weeks (it is also summer with kiddos and we just moved!) I will be continuing to release content on our regular schedule with no major gaps. I may have special guests here and there and I hope to have all of you by my side as I find a new rhythm as a single host.

We ask that you please show respect and consideration during this transition time. We know you may have questions, but we ask that you not reach out to either of us directly.

Thank you for being the BEST community in true crime. I can’t wait to talk to you soon!

LYLAS,

Tyrella

330: The REAL Lizzie Borden Story

Tue, 16 Jul 2024 19:22:00 -0000

We all know the rhyme, “Lizzie Borden took an ax and gave her mother forty whacks. When she saw what she had done, she gave her father 41,” right? It’s something most children in America say to scare their little sister or when having a sleepover with friends before saying Bloody Mary three times in the mirror. Despite the popularity of the rhyme and the crime, Lizzie Borden was acquitted of the murders. To this day, people remain divided on Lizzie’s guilt, but the one thing we know for sure is that despite the murders having happened over 130 years ago, it remains in infamy.

329: Bike Path Killer [Serial Killer]

Thu, 11 Jul 2024 15:07:00 -0000

From the 1980s until his eventual capture in 2007, a notorious serial rapist and murderer was active in the Buffalo, New York area. Police had linked this man to three murders and numerous rapes, often attacking women along bike paths, which led to him being called “The Bike Path Killer or Rapist”. His arrest came after DNA evidence connected him to the crimes, leading to a life sentence in prison without the possibility of parole. This case highlighted the importance of forensic science in solving cold cases and bringing long-sought justice to his victims.

In June of 2015, Dr. Teresa Sievers was on vacation with her family in Connecticut. She decided to cut it short and return home so she could see patients at her medical practice, while her husband stayed in Connecticut with their children. Dr. Sievers was last seen on surveillance in the airport after her flight arrived, as she made her way out and drove home. When she arrived home, she was brutally attacked by two unknown assailants, who ultimately took her life. For nearly two months, investigators chased every lead, but were running out of options when a tip came in that led them to the men responsible, nearly 1100 miles away.

Amityville Horror: Part 2

Wed, 12 Jun 2024 01:23:00 -0000

You’ve no doubt heard of “The Amityville Horror” before. From a bestselling book to a multi-million dollar film franchise, the story has captured the world's attention from the instant it was reported. The quiet Long Island town was rocked when the DeFeo family was brutally murdered while they slept. The Lutz family purchased and moved into their home following their deaths, but only stayed for 28 days before fleeing in terror in the night. The sensationalism of their claims led to a media frenzy, but this question remains: Did they experience a genuine supernatural phenomenon or was it just an elaborate hoax?

The Mysterious Death of Michelle O'Connell (Suicide or Murder?)

Tue, 07 May 2024 16:00:00 -0000

Michelle O'Connell's death in 2010 is shrouded in mystery to this day. She was found dead from a gunshot wound, and her death was initially ruled a suicide. Over time though, questions arose due to her troubled relationship with her boyfriend, Jeremy Banks, who was also a sheriff's deputy in St. Augustine, Florida. Despite evidence suggesting foul play, the case was closed, leaving her family frustrated and seeking justice. The case gained national attention as it raised concerns about law enforcement bias and the handling of domestic violence cases. Michelle's family continues to fight for a proper investigation, hoping to uncover the truth.

Serial Killer Gerard Schaefer

Tue, 16 Apr 2024 16:00:00 -0000

Serving as a sheriff's deputy in Martin County, Florida, Gerard Schaefer led a double life, portraying himself as a dedicated officer while secretly engaging in gruesome acts. Schaefer was convicted of the first degree murders of two young women, Susan Place and Georgia Jessup. Investigators suspect that Schaefer was responsible for as many as thirty murders from the late 60s to the early 70s before his arrest and eventual conviction. During his incarceration, Schaefer penned short stories depicting the abduction and murder of women, some of which contained chilling details correlating with women who had been reported missing or bodies that had been found, adding a disturbing layer to the already gruesome nature of his crimes.

312: The Murder of Eric Richins (Kouri Richins)

Tue, 12 Mar 2024 18:00:00 -0000

In the early morning of March 4th, 2022, 33-year-old Kouri Richins called 911 from her home in Kamas, Utah. She said that she’d come back into the bedroom she shared with her 39-year-old husband Eric to find him cold and unresponsive. First responders arrived, but were unable to revive Eric. The father of three was pronounced dead. His autopsy later revealed that he’d ingested about 5 times the lethal amount of Fentanyl. Nobody could believe that Eric had died from a drug overdose. It didn’t take long for investigators to zero in on Eric’s wife, Kouri. Evidence showed that she’d made significantly poor financial decisions, leaving her in a position that may have led her to commit murder.

311: [Serial Killers] Fred and Rose West- Part 2 of 2

Tue, 05 Mar 2024 19:35:21 -0000

From the late 1960s to the late 1980s, 12 girls and young women lost their lives at the hands of Fred and Rose West, including their own daughters. They would come under suspicion in August of 1992 after one of their daughters reported to a friend that her father had sexually abused her. The couple would be formally arrested in 1994 after a lengthy investigation. Fred West was charged with twelve counts of murder and Rose with nine, but it’s believed that they could be responsible for many more. Their horrific crimes paint them as two of the most prolific serial killers in the history of the UK.

309: The Murder of Rachel Burkheimer

Tue, 20 Feb 2024 17:00:00 -0000

Hey ya'll! Tori was sick for this one so I hope you can put up with just me! -Tyrella

In September of 2002, 18-year-old Rachel Burkheimer went to a house party with friends, thinking that she’d have a night of fun. Unfortunately, Rachel never returned home from the party. Instead, the group of “friends” abducted her, bound and gagged her, put her inside a duffel bag, and drove her to a desolate area where they forced her to watch them dig her grave. Rachel was murdered by those that she trusted after rumors of her betraying them were circulated. How did the pretty, athletic, and driven 18-year-old end up buried in a shallow grave, with one of her best friends holding a shovel?

308: The Death of Sandy Maloney- Accident or Murder?

Tue, 13 Feb 2024 17:00:00 -0000

Sandy Maloney was expected in court in February of 1998 for her final hearing in her divorce from husband, John Maloney. She had spoken with her mother several times the night before and after being concerned for her daughter, Lola promised that she would make the just over two hour drive from Madison, Wisconsin to Green Bay, Wisconsin the next morning to check on her. When Lola arrived, she found her daughter’s body burned, not only on the sofa, but into it. After months of investigating, her husband, a local police officer, was accused and convicted of her murder. However, he has always maintained his innocence and it’s entirely possible that he isn’t responsible for Sandy’s death.

307: The Disappearance of Brandon Lawson

Tue, 06 Feb 2024 17:00:00 -0000

On August 8th, 2013, 26-year-old Brandon Lawson left his home in San Angelo, Texas after a huge fight with his fiancé. She hoped that he’d return after cooling down, but she woke up the next morning to find multiple missed calls from Brandon. She quickly learned that while she was asleep, Brandon’s brother, Kyle, had left to bring him gas after he’d run out on a desolate road. After several strange phone calls to Kyle, Brandon made a 911 call, begging for help, saying that he was being chased. When Kyle finally arrived, he found Brandon’s truck abandoned, but his brother was nowhere to be found. 10 years later, some questions about Brandon’s sudden disappearance have been answered, but his family is still left wondering, what happened to Brandon that night?

306: The Sea Orphan: Tere Jo Duperrault

Tue, 30 Jan 2024 17:00:00 -0000

On Monday, November 13th, 1961, a crewman aboard an oil tanker spotted something in the water. It was a man in a dinghy, waving frantically to get their attention. They rescued the man, and he told a harrowing story of how he found himself in the small vessel adrift at sea. While some believed him, others had serious doubts about his story, and another rescue days later cast further doubts on his tale. The second rescue was of 11 year old Tere Jo Duperrault, and she told a much different version of the events that left her adrift at sea.

On December 17, 2011, the father of 20-month-old, Ayla Reynolds, called the police to report his daughter missing. Ayla was in the custody of her father and the night she disappeared, there were three adults in the house, but not one of them will say what happened to her. They say that she was kidnapped and they didn’t know who took her, but the evidence suggests otherwise. As of this recording, it has been almost 12 years to the day Ayla went missing and her mother still has no answers as to what happened to her 1-year-old daughter that night.

304: Atlanta Centennial Park Bombing

Tue, 16 Jan 2024 19:00:00 -0000

In 1996, the Summer Olympics were held in Atlanta, Georgia. On July 27th, thousands had gathered at Centennial Park for a late night concert. The FBI was told that a tip was called into 911 saying that a bomb would go off in the park within 30 minutes. A search ensued, and the bomb was located by security guard Richard Jewell. An evacuation was ordered, but three minutes into it, the bomb detonated. Two people died as a result of the bombing and 111 others were injured. The person responsible wouldn’t be captured until 2003, but before that, Richard Jewell was cast as the hero, then, unjustly the villain in the bombing.

Did you know we were on the Hulu special about this case? Check it out by clicking here!

Natalee Holloway was on her senior class trip in Aruba in 2005. The graduates decided to go out with a bang on their last night on the island and went to a popular bar to have some fun and some drinks as the legal drinking age there is 18. Natalee was seen leaving the bar with a few local boys and was never seen again. It’s been 18 years and neither Natalee nor her remains have been found. Natalee’s family has never stopped looking for her and believe the Aruban police played a big role in covering up what happened to their daughter.

On Friday, April 23, 2021, Zale Dudas and her younger brother, Saxon Nairne, were swimming in a backyard pool, unattended, with a scuba diving tank. Both kids were said to be proficient swimmers, however, at seven and nine years old, they were not proficient scuba diving experts. The scuba tank, typically filled with oxygen, was actually filled with helium. Both children passed out due to the inhalation of the helium and were found at the bottom of the pool. Four days after the incident, both children passed away. Their deaths were determined to be an accident, however, their grieving mother, Suzie Dudas, is seeking justice for her two young children.

301: Isabella Guzman

Tue, 26 Dec 2023 16:58:00 -0000

In late August of 2013, Ryan Hoy called the Aurora Colorado Police Department for help. He said that his wife, 47-year-old Yun-Mi, and his 18-year-old stepdaughter, Isabella, were locked in the upstairs bathroom. He could hear his wife yelling for help, but wasn’t sure exactly what was going on. Then, he saw blood start to seep underneath the bathroom door and into the hallway. Shortly after, Isabella opened the bathroom door, knife in hand and covered in her mother’s blood, and walked down the stairs and out of the home. What could’ve caused the young girl to commit such a brutal act? Was she suffering from delusions and an untreated mental illness? Or was she simply a master manipulator?

300: Serial Killer- Sean Vincent Gillis

Tue, 19 Dec 2023 19:00:00 -0000

In February of 2004, the body of a nude woman was discovered near an agricultural research station for Louisiana State University (LSU). The crime scene was processed and it was discovered that the woman had suffered a deep slash to her neck and there were ligature marks all around her neck. Her body had been positioned in a way so that trauma to her genitals would clearly be seen by anyone who found her. Investigators found signs that she had been dragged to the scene, tire tracks nearby, and 13 empty beer cans. The body was determined to be Donna Johnston, and she was the final victim of Sean Vincent Gillis’ 10 year killing spree.

299: Doomsday Mom Lori Vallow Murders- Part 2 of 2

Tue, 12 Dec 2023 15:00:00 -0000

In late 2019, Kay Woodcock called local police and asked them to perform a welfare check on her 7-year-old grandson, JJ Vallow. She hadn’t seen him in almost two months, and couldn’t get in touch with his mother or his older sister. As investigators began to look into where JJ was, they found that his 16-year-old sister, Tylee Ryan, was also missing. Their mother, Lori Vallow, claimed that they were safe and happy, but refused to tell anyone where they were. Detectives continued to dig into the Vallow family and found a sickening story of extreme religion, demons, zombies, and murder. They found suspicious deaths that surrounded Lori, as well as her new husband, Chad Daybell. Unfortunately, no one could find JJ or Tylee. Were they really somewhere safe or had they been victims of Lori and Chad’s bizarre cult-like religion?

297: AJ Armstrong- Parent Killer or Wrongfully Convicted?

Tue, 28 Nov 2023 20:27:00 -0000

The Houston Police Department received a 911 call in the early morning hours of July 29th, 2016, from a very calm 16-year-old. AJ Armstrong told the dispatcher that he’d heard gunshots in his parents’ room downstairs and that he was now hiding in the closet of his third floor bedroom. When officers arrived, they found AJ’s mother, Dawn, dead in her bed, from two gunshot wounds to the head. AJ’s father, Antonio, had also suffered a gunshot wound to the head, but was clinging to life. Both AJ and his 12-year-old sister were unharmed. Less than 24 hours later, AJ was charged with the capital murder of both of his parents. Was he responsible for their brutal slayings, or had a masked intruder really just gotten THAT lucky to get away with a double murder?

In March of 2017, three women filed sexual assault allegations against Danny Masterson who denied the allegations via his agent. The filing triggered an LAPD investigation, and in December of 2017, a fourth victim came forward with allegations. A few weeks later, a fifth victim came forward with allegations. Masterson was able to escape justice for years by hiding behind the rules / laws of the Church of Scientology. Eventually though, he was brought to trial and found guilty of rape and given 30 years to life in prison.

Eventually though, he was brought to trial and found guilty of rape and given 30 years to life in prison.

294: [FREE Weekly Episode] The Death of Tiffany Valiante

Tue, 07 Nov 2023 17:14:50 -0000

In the late evening and early morning hours between July 12th and July 13th, 2015, 18-year-old Tiffany Valiante’s body was recovered by police after it was struck by a train in Mays Landing, New Jersey. Her family was told that the promising young volleyball player had jumped out in front of the train, taking her own life. Tiffany was a typical teenager, who struggled sometimes at home and argued with her parents, but had also been offered five scholarships to play college volleyball and couldn’t wait to meet her college roommate. The New Jersey Transit Police quickly closed the case, ruling it a suicide, however, there were so many questions left unanswered. Tiffany’s family is left wondering still, what happened to her on those train tracks?

292: [FREE Weekly Episode] Grant Solomon- Part 2

Tue, 24 Oct 2023 16:00:00 -0000

On July 20th, 2020, Gallatin, Tennessee 911 dispatchers received a phone call from Aaron Solomon. He told them that his 18-year-old son Grant was lying in a ditch at the bottom of the parking lot, and that his Toyota Tacoma had backed over him and dragged him down the hill. When responders arrived, they found Grant alive, but only just. He was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital. Officers ruled the death an accident and the case was closed. Grant’s mother, Angie Solomon, knows that something else happened in that parking lot that day, something that was the culmination of years of sexual, physical, emotional, and mental abuse, and she’s going to do everything she can to prove that Aaron murdered their son.

288: [FREE Weekly Episode] Serial Killer Jeremy Bryan Jones

Tue, 26 Sep 2023 16:00:00 -0000

On September 21st, 2004, a man was arrested in Mobile, Alabama for the murder of 43-year-old Lisa Marie Nichols. Lisa had been found shot to death in her home, which was then set on fire. 32-year-old John Paul Chapman was taken into custody, but detectives quickly found that the man was actually Jeremy Bryan Jones. Jones was a fugitive after fleeing Oklahoma when his bail was revoked. More concerningly, Jones had been arrested under his ‘Chapman’ alias three times, and was released each time. Once he was in custody, Jones confessed to over 20 murders. How many people had this man, once described by ADA John Furman as a “low-rent Ted Bundy”, actually killed? And could any of them have been prevented if Jones’ real identity had been discovered earlier?

287: Melissa Lucio: Child Murderer or Wrongful Conviction? (Part 2)

Tue, 19 Sep 2023 19:49:18 -0000

In 2008, 39-year-old Melissa Lucio became the first Hispanic woman sentenced to death in the state of Texas. She’d been tried and convicted of capital murder in the death of her two-year-old daughter, Mariah Alvarez. On February 17th, 2007, first responders were called to Melissa’s home to find Mariah in cardiac arrest. Despite resuscitation efforts, Mariah was pronounced dead at the hospital. She was found covered in bruises, with a cause of death ultimately determined to be from a significant head injury. Melissa had no documented history of abuse, but before investigators had even left her home that night, they’d formed their opinion of what happened, despite Melissa’s explanation. Since her sentencing, people across the world have been lobbying on Melissa’s behalf, petitioning for a stay of execution and, hopefully, a full exoneration. Was Melissa wrongly convicted and sentenced to death or was she responsible for the death of her youngest child?

280: David Koresh and the Waco Siege- Part 2

Wed, 02 Aug 2023 01:32:51 -0000

On April 19th, 1993, FBI agents began pouring tear gas into a compound known as Mount Carmel in Waco, Texas. It was the final act of a 51 day standoff that had taken place between law enforcement and a religious group known as The Branch Davidians. After a failed attempt by the ATF to serve a warrant to arrest the group’s leader, David Koresh, for stockpiling illegal weapons, the standoff began. By the end, 82 Branch Davidians were dead, including 28 children, and four ATF agents had been killed. The country was left with questions that remain unanswered to this day, the most important one being, who was responsible for the 86 deaths that happened at Mount Carmel?

Two days later, Marlene died in the local hospital, with nobody understanding who hated Marlene so much that they’d commit such a horrific crime. An investigation that spanned 27 years would finally reveal who’d painted their face in white clown makeup that day and murdered Marlene Warren in cold blood.

276: The Groene Family Massacre (and the Survival of Shasta Groene)

Tue, 04 Jul 2023 18:51:38 -0000

On a Monday in May of 2005, deputies in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho responded to a call at the Groene residence. When they arrived, they found blood covering the walls and floors of the home. The bodies of the mother, Brenda, her boyfriend, Mark, and Brenda’s 13-year-old son, Slade, were lying on the living room floor, clearly victims of a vicious attack. A triple murder was unheard of in the small Idaho town. As they looked around the rest of the home, detectives realized that the two youngest Groenes, 8-year-old Shasta and 9-year-old Dylan were missing. There was no sign of the two anywhere on the property or in the surrounding area. Less than two months later, a waitress at a local Denny’s called 911 because she believed that Shasta was sitting in her restaurant. Police arrived to find the missing girl and her abductor, who was arrested immediately. But who was this man who’d committed a triple murder and a double kidnapping? It couldn’t have been a first time offender. Most importantly, where was Dylan Groene?

Her death was ruled accidental, but Debbie’s family, friends, and much of the community believe that she was the victim of murder.

Listen Now: Suspect "Five Shots in the Dark"

Mon, 26 Jun 2023 13:46:59 -0000

Leon Benson spent more than half of his life, a total of 24 years, in an Indiana state prison for a murder he didn't commit. Despite the lack of physical evidence and a questionable eyewitness identification, he was convicted. But new realities start to come to light when attorney Lara Bazelon takes up his case and is determined to secure Benson's release. Season three of Suspect, co-produced by Campside Media and Wondery, delves into the flaws in the criminal justice system that led to Benson's wrongful conviction for the 1998 shooting of Kasey Schoen in Indianapolis. The investigation aims to uncover the truth about who really committed the crime and why the eyewitness testimony that led to Benson's conviction was so shaky. Host Matthew Shaer joins co-producer and writer Bazelon to take a deep dive into the nature of memory and how it can be fallible and result in an innocent man's life being wasted, while the real perpetrator remains unpunished. As the investigation unfolds, will Bazelon and her team gather enough evidence to free Benson? And what will happen to Schoen’s real killer?

272: Texas Killing Fields- Serial Killer? Part 1

Tue, 06 Jun 2023 14:00:00 -0000

Since the early 1970s, dozens of bodies of murder victims have been found along the Interstate Highway 45 area. While there have been arrests made for some of the murders that have taken place in the area, the vast majority remain unsolved. Some theorize that the area served as a dumping ground for multiple serial killers that were operating in the area, but that has never been proven.

Part 1 of 2

***TRIGGER WARNING***
Abduction / Kidnapping / Rape / Strangulation / Murder
All of these are of both adults and teenage girls.

271: Missing and Murdered Indigenous (MMIW) Women- Part 2

Tue, 30 May 2023 17:34:50 -0000

Kimberly Iron, 21. Faith Lindsey, 17. Sabrina Rosette, 33. Cecelia Barber Finona, 59. Jermain “Liz” Morigeau, 23. Olivia Lone Bear, 32. Faith Hedgepath, 19. Sherryl Lynn Jacquot, 43. Monica L. Bercier Wickre, 42. All of these Indigenous women were either murdered or disappeared under suspicious circumstances. Some have been solved, most of them have not. These are just a few names out of thousands of missing and murdered Indigenous women in the nation. Many aren’t reported and most aren’t even investigated properly, leaving loved ones feeling lost, filled with questions, and feeling as though they can’t trust any law enforcement. There’s a common saying in Native American communities: “When an Indigenous woman goes missing, she goes missing twice—first her body vanishes and then her story.” Why are so many Native American and Alaska Native women going missing and being murdered and WHY does it seem like people don’t care?

TRIGGER WARNINGS: murder, domestic violence, assault, drug and alcohol abuse, child death, police brutality

269: [FREE Weekly Episode] Caffey Family Murders (Erin Caffey)

Tue, 16 May 2023 16:00:00 -0000

On Saturday, March 1st, 2008, the Caffey family home in Emory, Texas was engulfed in flames. Terry Caffey, the father, had been shot five times and had amazingly escaped the burning home and crawled 500 yards to his neighbors’ house, where 911 was called. Firefighters found the burned remains of 38-year-old Penny Caffey, 13-year-old Matthew, and 8-year-old Tyler. Still missing was 16-year-old Erin. Terry was immediately rushed to the hospital and into surgery. Once Terry was in recovery, a Rains County Sheriff told him that his only daughter was alive and well. Unfortunately, Terry’s relief that Erin was safe was short-lived. The Sheriff also told Terry that she was in custody for being involved in the murders. He was stunned. There was no way that his daughter had anything to do with this. However, Terry, and the rest of the community, were shocked to find that the evidence against Erin was overwhelming.

264: Alex Murdaugh Trial Recaps Part 2- The Defense and Verdict

Tue, 11 Apr 2023 18:37:04 -0000

Overview of the case in case you don’t know: On the night of June 7, 2021 Alex Murdaugh called 911 to report that he had come home to find his wife and son “shot badly.” His wife Maggie and son Paul were found dead on the family’s sprawling property named “Moselle.” They were found at the property kennels which were about ⅓ mile away from the main house. Both were shot multiple times; Paul was killed with a 12g shotgun and sustained 2 gunshot wounds: to his head and shoulder. This is gruesome but true- his brain was “blown out” of the right side of his head, completely severing his brain from his skull. Maggie was shot with a .300 Blackout AR-style rifle 5 times; through the left wrist, left thigh, her upper abdomen through the lower back, and a downward-trajectory shot to the right back of Maggie’s head. Alex Murdaugh has maintained his innocence since the murders and stood trial in early 2023. This episode recaps the trial and the verdict.

262: The Vigilante Killing of Ken Rex McElroy

Tue, 28 Mar 2023 19:00:00 -0000

On the morning of July 10th, 1981, shots rang out in the small town of Skidmore, Missouri. Outside of the D&G Tavern, the engine of a truck could be heard roaring to life, until it gave out, and eventually the engine blew. In the truck was the body of Ken Rex McElroy, who was known in Skidmore as the “town bully.” Incredibly, with dozens of people surrounding the truck when the shooting took place, there were no witnesses who could identify the shooter, or shooters, besides McElroy’s wife, who was in the truck beside him when he was shot.

Tue, 21 Mar 2023 15:59:00 -0000

From 1932 to 1934, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow were perhaps the best-known outlaws in the United States. It was during the Great Depression that Bonnie and Clyde rose to fame for their daring bank heists and Robin Hood-esque crimes. Hollywood glamorized them as a young couple in love, but in their time on the run, they left a trail of death and destruction in their path and are believed to be responsible for the deaths of four civilians and nine police officers. Their story came to an abrupt end at the hands of authorities in May of 1934, when they were only 23 and 25 years old.

Just after midnight on August 11th, 2003, Alaskan native, Sonya Ivanoff parted ways with her best friend and began the short walk home to her apartment from her friend’s house. This would be the last time that 19-year-old Sonya was seen alive by her best friend. A few days later, Sonya’s nude body was found just a few miles outside of her hometown of Nome, Alaska. She’d been shot once in the back of the head. Unfortunately, investigators were unable to find any DNA or obvious evidence at the scene or on Sonya’s body. They couldn’t understand how a perpetrator could leave zero DNA evidence behind. As they progressed in the investigation, two witnesses came forward and dropped a bombshell on them about Sonya’s last moments that night. What came next made the entire community of Nome, and even Alaska, question if they were really safe.

Introducing COLD: The Search for Sheree

Mon, 20 Feb 2023 15:00:00 -0000

Sheree Warren left her job in Salt Lake City on a mild October evening in 1985. She told a coworker she was headed to meet her estranged husband, Charles Warren, at a car dealership. But she never made it, Sheree vanished. When her car mysteriously surfaced weeks later, hundreds of miles away in Las Vegas, no one could say how it got there.
When a young mother disappears under unexplained circumstances, police always turn suspicious eyes towards the husband. And although there was distrust around Charles Warren, he wasn’t the only suspect when Sheree went missing. She also had a boyfriend, a former cop named Cary Hartmann, who lived a sinister double life.
Season three follows two suspects– men who both raised suspicion for investigators. But with two strong persons of interest with competing facts and evidence, it muddied the murder investigation. This season, host Dave Cawley, digs into the lives of these two men, the details of the case and examines the intersections between domestic abuse and sexual violence. The COLD team seeks to answer the question: what really happened to Sheree Warren?

When her mother opened the door, she found Gloria standing there with a newborn baby in her arms. Gloria said that she’d given birth in a Charleston hospital earlier that day. For the next 18 years, Gloria raised her daughter in South Carolina, in a loving and nurturing home, until one day, investigators received a tip that the young lady that Gloria Williams was raising, wasn’t actually her child at all.

On the evening of February 20th, 2003, hundreds of people had filled The Station Nightclub in Warwick, Rhode Island. They were all there for a concert headlined by Great White, a rock band that formed in the late 70s, and has been together ever since, even though some members have changed over the years. Before the band was even able to finish their first song though, a fire ignited that quickly spread throughout the venue. 100 people lost their lives that night, and 230 more were injured. 132 people escaped without any physical injuries, but the trauma from the night remains with them.

Despite making a 911 call during her attack, police didn’t arrive on scene until 48 minutes later when her fiance found her in their bedroom and placed another call to 911. Was the lack of dispatch the reason it took 14 years for her killer to be caught or was it simply a case of lack of evidence?

251: Chino Hills Massacre

Tue, 10 Jan 2023 18:00:00 -0000

On Sunday, June 5th, 1983, Bill Hughes drove the short distance from his home to the home of Peggy and Doug Ryen. Bill’s son, 11-year-old Chris, had a sleepover that night with the Ryens’ son, Josh. There was no answer at the front door and the Ryens’ car was missing. When he peeked in through a sliding glass door in the back of home, Bill thought what he was seeing was some sort of prank. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. Inside the home were the bodies of Doug, Peggy, and Jessica Ryen, and Bill’s son, Chris. Josh Ryen, the youngest boy, had somehow survived what turned out to have been a brutal massacre. Several months later, despite many lingering questions about the murders, a man was charged and ultimately sentenced to death. Was Kevin Cooper guilty of a quadruple homicide or had he been framed?

250: The Mysterious Burari Deaths

Tue, 03 Jan 2023 22:00:00 -0000

In the early morning hours of July 1st, 2018, a neighbor of the Chundawat family in the Burari neighborhood in Delhi, India was puzzled when he saw that their shops still weren’t open. The milk had been delivered to the grocery shop, but it had not yet been brought inside. Customers were waiting outside to make purchases, but none had seen the Chundawats. Concerned, the neighbor climbed the stairs to the family’s home and found the main door open. He pushed through the door and into the home and saw what he thought might be a horrible nightmare. Hanging from an iron grate in the ceiling were nine bodies. Another body was hanging across the room from the others. The eleventh member of the Chundawat family, the grandmother, was laying on the floor beside a bed, with a belt and scarf wrapped around her neck. All eleven members of the family were dead, but nobody could understand why. Had the Chundawat family been part of a ritualistic mass suicide or were they the victims of murder?

249: The Mysterious Disappearance of the Humboldt Five

Tue, 27 Dec 2022 22:34:35 -0000

Between the years of 1993 and 2014, five young women between the ages of 16 and 37 disappeared in Humboldt County, California. Unlike the large majority of missing persons cases, these five have not been solved. While not all of the cases are believed to be connected, the five women were grouped together due to the suspicious circumstances of their disappearances and the lack of answers in their cases. The five women, now known as the Humboldt Five, are still either missing or presumed dead, with very little evidence and no resolutions. What happened to the Humboldt Five?

========================================

In the late 1960s, throughout Northern California, the general public was on edge. There were 5 deaths confirmed to be at the hands of Zodiac, with 2 more injured. Zodiac would later claim responsibility for 37 deaths, although those claims have never been proven to be true. The case of the Zodiac killer has gone down in US history as the most notorious unsolved case, as his identity remains a mystery to this day. Although some claim to have solved the case of his identity, no one has ever been arrested and charged with the crimes he has taken credit for.

247: Adnan Syed- Part 2

Tue, 13 Dec 2022 22:00:00 -0000

Part 2 of 2: On January 13th, 1999, 18-year-old high school senior, Hae Min Lee was reported missing by her family. She’d been leaving school that day, but had never arrived to pick up her younger cousin from school. In the time span of less than 30 minutes it seemed, the young woman had vanished. Less than a month later, Hae’s body was found in a park, partially buried. She had been strangled to death. The investigation that ensued resulted in Hae’s ex-boyfriend, 17-year-old Adnan Syed, being convicted of her murder and sentenced to life in prison. However, after a judge recently ruled that the prosecution had failed to turn over evidence that could’ve altered the jury’s verdict, Adnan’s sentence was vacated. Shortly after, the state dropped the charges against him. Was Adnan Syed wrongly convicted? Was his counsel ineffective or was he truly proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt?

245: Yuba County 5

Tue, 29 Nov 2022 22:00:00 -0000

On Friday, February 24th, 1978, five young men left their homes to head to a basketball game at Chico State in Chico, California. This was the boys’ favorite team and they had a basketball tournament they were playing in themselves the next day. They were known as the Gateway Gators and were competing in the Special Olympics. The game ended and the boys’ favorite team won. They left the school and stopped at a nearby service station to grab snacks before the hour drive home together. Unfortunately, the young men never made it home. Months later, remains were found in the mountains of the Plumas National Forest. The young men, rather than continue south down the interstate, in a straight shot to their hometown, had veered east and continued in the wrong direction for quite some distance. Their car was found abandoned. Four of the young men were found dead. People assumed that because four of the young men were described as “slow” or mentally disabled, they’d just gotten lost, but their families knew better. They still, to this day, believe that the young men were victims of foul play. With one man still missing, there are no answers to this case, only theories and rumors. What happened to the Yuba County Five?

TRIGGER WARNINGS: outdated terminology for intellectually and developmentally disabled, that can be considered offensive now (these words were used to describe the men at the time when it was more acceptable).

244: 244: Serial Killer Larry Hall and the Inside Man Jimmy Keene

Tue, 22 Nov 2022 22:00:00 -0000

Larry Hall is a murderer, rapist, and suspected serial killer. Authorities believe that Hall was active throughout the 80s and into the early 90s. Hall was arrested in 1994, and eventually confessed to kidnapping 15 year old Jessica Roach. Although Jessica Roach had been abducted and murdered, Hall didn’t confess to murdering her. While waiting for an appeal to his conviction, the FBI feared that Hall might be released and reached out to another prisoner, James Keene, and sent him undercover to try to obtain a confession from Hall.

243: Serial Killer: Gainesville Ripper

Tue, 15 Nov 2022 23:00:00 -0000

In late August 1990, Gainesville, Florida fell victim to a serial killer. Over the span of less than a week, five college students were brutally murdered in their homes. Police couldn’t figure out who was behind the gruesome attacks and the Gainesville community was absolutely terrified. Doors were triple locked and roommates were sleeping in shifts. A suspect was jailed, but the DNA didn’t match. Meanwhile, a man was jailed in Ocala, Florida, the suspect of multiple armed robberies. Two completely different types of crimes, and no one suspected that that robberies and the murders were committed by the same person. To their suprise, they were wrong, and the man responsible for the Gainesville murders and countless armed robberies, was actually already in prison. Unbeknownst to detectives though, Danny Rolling’s murders in Gainesville weren’t his first. Rolling had killed before he’d even entered the state of Florida, annihilating an entire family, all before he was fearfully dubbed the Gainesville Ripper.

In his home, he found his two young children, and after searching, found Kelley’s body. She had been BRUTALLY beaten to death. Thomas called the police and investigators set out to find the person or persons responsible.

242: Entwistle Family Murders

Tue, 08 Nov 2022 22:00:00 -0000

On January 21st, 2006, Priscilla Materazzo called the local police. She couldn’t get in touch with her daughter, Rachel Entwistle or her son-in-law Neil. The couple had a 9-month-old baby named Lily, so Priscilla was growing increasingly concerned. She’d been to their house, with no answer. A family friend also stopped by the Entwistle home for a scheduled dinner, but there was no sign of the family anywhere. Police did a quick search of the house, but found nothing out of the ordinary. The next day, Priscilla filed an official missing persons report on her daughter and her family. Police returned to the house for a further search, when they noticed a smell coming from the master bedroom. Under the covers, they found the deceased bodies of 27-year-old Rachel and her baby, Lily. Neil was nowhere to be found. Had Rachel murdered her own child, then turned the gun on herself, in a deep state of postpartum depression or had Neil Entwistle fled the home after brutally murdering his family?

Murder Mixtape 188: Danielle Van Dam

Thu, 03 Nov 2022 21:00:00 -0000

On a Saturday morning in February of 2002, Brenda and Damon Van Dam cooked breakfast in their San Diego home for themselves and their three children. Both of their boys came downstairs to eat, but their daughter didn’t. When Brenda walked upstairs to her bedroom, she found her seven-year-old daughter’s bed empty. Danielle Van Dam was gone. Less than a month later, her decomposed remains were found on a rural road. Because of the advanced stage of decomposition, they were unable to determine what her cause of death was. Even though they didn’t have all of the answers, police had already arrested a man for Danielle’s murder before her body was even found. Despite DNA evidence linking Danielle to the man’s house and RV, many still speculated that the Van Dam parents’ “wild” lifestyle led to their daughter’s kidnapping and murder. Was Danielle the victim of a pre-planned abduction by a neighbor or did her mom and dad’s partying lead to her death?

She didn’t realize that would be the last time she ever saw him. Less than 24 hours after Dylan arrived at his father’s house, he was reported missing. From the moment his father texted Elaine to tell her that he was missing, Elaine and the rest of her family knew that her ex-husband was behind his disappearance. Years passed before the family was able to find any closure, which included everyone finding out the shocking discovery that could’ve given him the reason to murder his son.

On the morning of November 26th, 2001, a call went out to emergency services about a fire at the home of Terry King and his two sons, Derek and Alex. Once the blaze was extinguished and investigators began to search the home, they discovered the body of Terry King. His two sons, however, were missing. Police combed through the neighborhood and questioned neighbors, but Derek and Alex weren’t located until the following day, when they were brought to authorities by a neighbor. After speaking with the boys, it didn’t take long for everyone to realize that there was more to the story than what they initially thought.

Tue, 25 Oct 2022 21:00:00 -0000

Today’s episode will cover three different cases. First is the murder of Kendra and Alysha Suing at the hands of their stepfather, Lawrence Harris. He would claim that it was a protection spell he learned studying witchcraft that went awry, which caused the girl's death. Then we take a look at John Crutchley, the “Vampire Rapist.” Crutchley was convicted of kidnapping and rape, but he is suspected by authorities to be a serial killer with as many as 30 victims. Last, we will take a brief look at Richard Jordan Tarver, who knew he could survive a zombie apocalypse… but only if he knew what it felt like to kill someone.

Murder Mixtape 185: Terrance Williams and Felipe Santos

Fri, 21 Oct 2022 20:06:48 -0000

In January of 2004, 27-year-old Terrance Williams disappeared in the early morning hours. His mother soon found out that he was last seen getting into the back of a police cruiser in Naples, Florida. The deputy reported that he’d dropped Terrance off at a nearby gas station. It wasn’t long before Terrance’s mother found that her son wasn’t the last young man seen in the police car belonging to the same deputy: Steven Calkins. Three months prior, 23-year-old Felipe Santos disappeared after getting into Calkins’ service vehicle following a minor car accident. Calkins said that he’d also dropped Felipe off at a nearby gas station. There was no video footage and no witnesses to corroborate Calkins’ story. Neither man has been seen since. Was this just a coincidence and was Calkins just the unluckiest man in the world? Or, more likely, was Calkins responsible for the disappearances, and likely murders, of Terrance and Felipe?

In July of 2015, Neal Falls responded to an online ad that had been posted by Heather Saul. At the time, Heather was working as a sex worker and agreed to meet with Neal at her apartment, with a friend waiting on the front porch for security. It was immediately apparent that Falls was there to at the very least harm and more likely kill Heather. She fought back, and ultimately killed Falls. When the police investigated, they discovered that there was more to Neal Falls than just a man looking for a sex worker.

On a rainy October afternoon in the small town of Potsdam, New York, a young woman called 911 to tell them that she heard some odd noises coming from the apartment across from hers. The noises sounded like a child in danger. When an officer finally arrived, he heard footsteps inside and the sound of the door’s lock clicking when he knocked. When he finally gained access, the officer found 12-year-old Garrett Phillips pulseless. He began CPR and Garrett was transported quickly to the hospital, but he ultimately died. The only evidence left behind was a bent window screen and a few fingerprints. Investigators immediately focused their attention on the victim’s mother’s ex-boyfriend, Nick Hillary, and he became an outcast, despite no physical evidence of his involvement. Were police targeting him because of his race and pushing another prime suspect aside because he was, GET THIS, another police officer? Or was the investigator’s tunnel vision being exagerrated and Nick Hillary really was responsible for the savage murder of a little boy?

TRIGGER WARNINGS: murder of a child, racism, police misconduct

Murder Mixtape 183: D'Wan Sims

Thu, 06 Oct 2022 21:00:00 -0000

TRIGGER WARNINGS: child abuse/murder/kidnapping

On December 11th, 1994, a security guard at the Wonderland shopping mall in Livonia, Michigan called the local police to alert them that they had a missing child. Four-year-old D’Wan Sims was reported missing by his mother, who said he was walking behind her, and when she looked back, he was gone. The immediate search did not find the little boy, however police did find that the mother’s story about what happened did not match up with video surveillance footage. Was D’Wan abducted by a stranger and snuck out of the mall without being seen on any surveillance footage, or was D’Wan even ever in the mall that day?

236: The Murder of Brittany McGlone (with Case Update)

Tue, 27 Sep 2022 21:00:00 -0000

On May 4th, 2007, Patricia Tice opened her door to find two sheriff deputies standing on her front porch. They told her that her 19-year-old daughter, Brittany McGlone was deceased. They wouldn’t elaborate, just telling her that her body was en route to a funeral home. Patricia soon found out that not only was her daughter dead, she had been brutally murdered. Brittany had suffered a vicious attack while sleeping and died from blunt force trauma to the head. She was sleeping in her boyfriend’s bed after a long night shift at work. Her boyfriend and his family were out of the house during the day and Brittany’s boyfriend returned home to find her dead in his bed, covered in blood. One of the first things that crossed Patricia’s mind when she found out her daughter was dead? “That son of a bitch killed her.” Patricia and the rest of her family believe that Brittany’s boyfriend was involved in her murder, along with a family friend with a history of violent crimes.

235: The Murder of Lauri Waterman

Tue, 20 Sep 2022 21:00:00 -0000

On November 15th, 2004, the remains of 50-year-old Lauri Waterman were found in a burned out vehicle near the north side of the island of Craig, Alaska. Her remains were so badly burned that only a skull was immediately recognizable. Lauri was loved and respected in her small town, often referred to as a “saint” by most of the people who knew her. She volunteered and worked with children with special needs. Who would’ve killed the generous and loving mother and wife in such a brutal manner? With no enemies, it wasn’t long before investigators turned their attention to her 16-year-old daughter and her new “boyfriend,” who was almost a decade older than her.

Murder Mixtape 181: The Murder of Carla Walker

Thu, 15 Sep 2022 21:00:00 -0000

On February 16th, 1974, 17-year-old Carla Walker and her 18-year-old boyfriend, Rodney McCoy, left their school’s Valentine’s Day dance and went to cruise around town in Rodney’s mom’s car. They stopped at a nearby bowling alley so Carla could use the bathroom. Afterwards, as the two young lovebirds fooled around in the parking lot, a man yanked open the car door and pulled Carla out. He beat Rodney unconscious, and when Rodney awoke, his girlfriend was gone. Several days later, the high school cheerleader was found dead in a culvert, a victim of rape and strangulation. Police only had one suspect in mind: Rodney, the high school quarterback. But Carla’s family was adamant that Rodney would never hurt their daughter. Were they right? Was Carla a victim of opportunity by a stranger or was their daughter brutally attacked and murdered by her high school sweetheart?

233: The Mall Murders (Nancy and Joey Bochicchio)

Tue, 06 Sep 2022 21:00:00 -0000

On Wednesday, December 12th, 2007, 47-year-old Nancy and her 7-year-old Joey Bochicchio left the Boca Raton Town Center Mall after doing some Christmas shopping. Surveillance video showed the two girls leaving the mall, with everything appearing to be normal. However, several hours later, Nancy’s SUV was spotted in a back parking lot of the mall, still running, after the mall had closed. Inside, police found Nancy and Joey, bound and executed. The investigation that followed revealed that these two murders may not have been random at all, that they could’ve been another attack committed by a still-unknown serial killer.

In June of 1994, 13-year-old Nicholas Barclay was reported missing by his mother. He was supposed to return home from a nearby park before dinner, but Nicholas disappeared without a trace. There were no signs of the teenager until his mother received a phone call over three years later from authorities in Spain. They said that they had found her missing son, that he’d been held captive and abused for the last several years. Nicholas’ family couldn’t believe that he was alive and coming back to them. However, when Nicholas returned to Texas with his family, people noticed that things were off, that something didn’t fit. People began to question if this was really Nicholas Barclay, or if the real missing teenager was still missing.

Mon, 29 Aug 2022 19:00:00 -0000

Our family members are not always who we think. When Eleonore Richland exposed her father’s dark legacy, she vowed to clean up the family business – and hired her half-brother, Santino Reyes, to help her do it. But old habits die hard. In the shocking new third season, Eleonore reckons with what her father always taught her growing up: medicine is a bloody business. From Wondery, the makers of “The Shrink Next Door” and “Dr. Death,” Blood Ties stars Gillian Jacobs (Community, Love), Christian Navarro (13 Reasons Why), and Peter Stormare.

231: Jeffrey MacDonald

On February 17th, 1970, 26-year-old Jeffrey MacDonald called 911, saying that there’d been a stabbing at his home and people were dying. MacDonald, a Green Beret, lived on the Army base in Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Military police responded quickly to the MacDonald house to find a horrific scene: 26-year-old Colette and the MacDonald’s two daughters, five-year-old Kimberley and two-year-old Kristen had been stabbed and bludgeoned to death. MacDonald, however, was still alive with only minor injuries. His story quickly began to unravel to investigators as he continued to blame the murders on a group of intruders, whom he described as “drug-crazed hippies”. Was MacDonald telling the truth or had he murdered his family in a fit of rage, then staged it to look like a copycat Manson murder?

229: 229: David Crespi: Failed by the System or Child Killer?

Tue, 09 Aug 2022 14:00:00 -0000

On January 20, 2006, Kim Crespi came home to her beautiful house in Matthews, North Carolina after a hair appointment, only to be stopped by a police barricade. She was informed that her two, five-year-old twin daughters, Tess and Sammie, had been murdered, and her husband, David, had confessed and was in police custody. David, a man who had never outwardly shown any signs of violence or aggression. A man who, to his friends, co-workers, and family, seemed like a hard-working, loving, and happy person. Even more frightening than the reality that David had murdered two of his daughters, was the likelihood that David would have murdered his wife and remaining 3 children had they been home. What could have caused this husband and father to brutally kill his two twin girls? Was it a conscious choice he made or was it induced by his recent changes in medication prescribed for his depression and anxiety?

228: Charles Manson [Cult]- Part 2

Tue, 02 Aug 2022 14:00:00 -0000

Part 2 of 2.

On the morning of August 9, 1969, a housekeeper arrived at her job to find a horrific scene. There were five dead bodies in the home on 10050 Cielo Drive on Benedict Canyon in Beverly Hills. The victims were actress Sharon Tate and several of her friends, as well as a teenager who had been visiting the house’s caretaker. Scrawled on the front door in blood was one word: PIG. The following night, a wealthy couple was brutally massacred in their LA home. There were several more words written in blood on the walls of the couple’s home, most notably a phrase on the refrigerator that read “Helter Skelter”. This made seven brutal murders in less than 48 hours. It wasn’t long before investigators connected the two attacks, along with an earlier murder, tracing them all back to a cult-like group called the family. The family was led by a single individual, who exhibited control over all of them. The man was Charles Manson. Investigators had a hard time believing that one man could have such an influence over others that they would murder for him, yet after meeting Manson, they learned that he was no ordinary person.

**ALL OF THE TRIGGER WARNINGS**
Murder, brutality, torture, murder of a pregnant woman, sexual assault of adults and children, drug use, racism, and cults.

Once at Alex’s home, Jason saw the two talking, and a passerby called the police when they saw Jason pacing back and forth in front of the apartment. After the police showed up and talked with everyone, they determined that there was no issue and left along with Jason. It was the last time anyone besides Ezra saw Alex alive. ***TRIGGER WARNING*** Murder - Stabbing - False Sexual Assault Accusations - Abortion Want access to our first 45 episodes? Grab em here!

225: The Mysterious Deaths of the Jamison Family

Tue, 12 Jul 2022 14:00:00 -0000

On October 8th, 2009, the Jamison family, consisting of dad, Bobby, mom, Sherilynn, and 6-year-old Madyson, left their home in Eufaula, Oklahoma to drive to a nearby mountain area to check out a parcel of land that they were considering purchasing. Eight days later, their truck was found on a dirt road in the mountain area, abandoned, with the family dog locked inside. What happened to the family and where were they now? It would be another four years before investigators were able to answer just ONE of those questions. They found the Jamisons, but still had no idea what happened to them in October of 2009.

224: [Missing] Lauren Spierer

Tue, 05 Jul 2022 15:31:27 -0000

TRIGGER WARNING: drug use, heavy alcohol use

In the early morning hours of June 3, 2011, 20-year-old college sophomore, Lauren Spierer, disappeared off the face of the earth. After a night of heavy drinking and reported drug use, Lauren, extremely intoxicated, was said to have left a friend’s apartment, alone, barefoot, and without any of her belongings, and began walking towards her apartment. She was never seen again and her remains have never been located. Was Lauren a victim of opportunity, falling prey to a serial killer? Or were the “friends” she’d been with all night covering up Lauren’s death, whether it had been intentional or accidental?

Tue, 28 Jun 2022 14:00:00 -0000

***TRIGGER WARNING*** Murder - Kidnapping - Rape - Gun Violence
Throughout the 70s and into the early 80s, Robert Hansen was able to kidnap and murder several women from the 4th Avenue district of Anchorage, Alaska. The Butcher Baker, as he would be known, took women out to the remote wilderness and would hunt them like wild animals. It wasn’t until one of his victims escaped that Hansen was even on the radar of investigators and eventually captured.

222: The [Unsolved] Murder of Susan Powell- Part 2

Tue, 21 Jun 2022 14:00:00 -0000

Part 2 of 2

**TRIGGER WARNINGS** murder, child murder, domestic abuse, violent death, child pornography, Suicide

On December 7, 2009, 28-year-old Susan Powell didn’t show up to work. She never dropped her two sons off at daycare. Nobody could reach her and she hadn’t been seen since the night before. Her sons and her husband were also nowhere to be found. Within a few hours, Josh, Charlie, and Braden Powell had been located, but Susan was still missing. Josh said that he’d taken their boys on a spontaneous camping trip the night before. In a snowstorm. In Utah. In December. He said that they’d left Susan at home and had no idea where she was. The investigation that followed revealed a crumbling marriage weighed down by Josh Powell’s controlling and abusive behavior. Unfortunately, before investigators were able to determine Josh’s exact role in Susan’s disappearance, he made one last horrific play for power, giving a middle finger to his wife’s family and friends, taking the last pieces of evidence to his grave.

220: Serial Killer Anthony Allen Shore

Tue, 07 Jun 2022 14:00:00 -0000

***TRIGGER WARNING*** Murder - Murder of a Child - Rape - Rape of a Child Sexual Abuse - Child Abuse - Strangulation
In Houston, TX, from 1986 to 1995, Anthony Allen Shore was responsible for the rape and murder of one woman and three children. He raped an additional girl but fled the scene afterwards and didn’t murder her. There is a very high likelihood that his crimes may have gone unsolved for years if he hadn’t been turned in by his family for molesting his two daughters. He is known as the “Tourniquet Killer” because it was the method he used to murder 3 of his victims.

219: Serial Killer- Timothy Wilson Spencer

Tue, 31 May 2022 14:00:00 -0000

***TRIGGER WARNING *** Rape - Murder - Strangulation - Murder & Rape of a child - Torture

From September 1987 to December 1987, 4 women, aged 15 to 44 were attacked, raped, and strangled at the hands of a sadistic killer. There were no witnesses to any of the homicides, and investigators had struggled until a hair found at one scene was tested using early DNA testing methods. The Southside Strangler investigation was a landmark case involving DNA testing evidence. Eventually, one man was exonerated for crimes he didn’t commit, while Timothy Wilson Spencer was convicted of these horrific crimes and eventually sentenced to death.

217: Breana Noojin Nix- Murder or Overdose?

Tue, 17 May 2022 14:00:00 -0000

TRIGGER WARNING: murder, drug abuse, opiate use and overdose, domestic abuse
Want this episode Ad-Free: Join our Patreon for as little as $3/month and get all episodes Ad-Free!

On Monday, March 2, 2020, Steven Nix called his sister-in-law, Brittany Noojin, at work. He nonchalantly told her that her sister had tried to kill herself, and that she should come over. Brittany arrived at her sister’s home to find that first responders were stopping resuscitation efforts and pronouncing her 32-year-old sister, Breana Noojin Nix, dead. The autopsy stated that it was an accidental death caused by an overdose of the opiate Fentanyl. Breana’s family was stunned. The beautiful, bright, ICU nurse was not a drug user and had never expressed thoughts of suicide. Less than six months later, Breana’s husband, Steven, had his ex-girlfriend move into his home and was living comfortably off the money paid to him from Breana’s life insurance policy. By this time, the Noojin family knew that Breana’s death was not an accident and strongly believed that Steven was behind it. Police, however, supported the ruling of accidental death, forcing the Noojin family to start their own investigation into what was so obviously the MURDER of Breana Noojin Nix.

216: [Missing] Maura Murray- Part 2

Tue, 10 May 2022 14:00:00 -0000

On Monday, February 9th, 2004, 21-year-old University of Massachusetts nursing student, Maura Murray, crashed her vehicle into a snowbank in Haverhill, New Hampshire. A neighbor called 911, while another neighbor stopped to offer help. Maura, appearing uninjured, declined help, and the neighbor drove off. Approximately 7 minutes later, when police arrived, Maura had disappeared. She has never been seen or heard from since. 18 years later, the disappearance of Maura Murray has turned into one of the greatest debated mysteries in the world of true crime. There are countless theories, questions, and arguments that all ultimately end in two very important questions: where was Maura driving that night and where is she now?

214: Alonzo Brooks

Tue, 26 Apr 2022 20:12:46 -0000

On April 3rd, 2004, 23-year-old Alonzo Brooks left his home in Gardner, Kansas, and told his mother, Maria, he was headed to a party with friends. That was the last time she’d see her son alive. Less than 24 hours later, Maria tried to file a missing persons report on her son in La Cygne, Kansas, about an hour away from their home. Alonzo’s friends who’d given him a ride to the party somehow left without him, at a party in a small town, where he was one of only three people of color in attendance. 27 days after Alonzo went missing, his family found his body on a creekbed, not far from the farmhouse where the party had been. Strangely enough, his body wasn’t hidden, and the area had been searched multiple times before, with no signs of Alonzo. His manner of death was initially ruled as “undetermined” and closed by the KBI, stating there was no evidence of a homicide. Alonzo’s family has continued to fight to prove that he was the victim of a hate crime and that his murderers are still walking free.

Tue, 19 Apr 2022 15:38:15 -0000

On May 5th, 1993 three 8 year old boys were reported missing by their parents. An initial search that night didn’t find the boys, but the following day, a more thorough search of areas that the boys were known to play and hang out was carried out and the bodies of Stevie Branch, Chris Byers, and Michael Moore were discovered. With very little actual evidence, three teens were arrested and found guilty of the murders. They spent years in prison before being released, and are still fighting to this day to clear their names. The state of Arkansas refuses to acknowledge any wrongdoing, and lets the true killer or killers walk free.

211: Child Murderer Jon Dunkle

Tue, 05 Apr 2022 14:00:00 -0000

In the 1980’s, two small towns in California were shocked when two 12-year-old boys were brutally murdered. No physical evidence had been left at the crime scene and nobody knew who would want to hurt these two boys. With the help of witnesses and a sketch artist, investigators were able to connect their deaths to the disappearance of a 15-year-old boy. The suspect in question was Jon Dunkle. Despite the ease of connecting the three crimes and identifying Dunkle as a likely suspect in all three cases, Dunkle was unlike any other criminal the investigators had dealt with before. It would be years before detectives were able to finally to arrest 26-year-old Dunkle, who had been referred to as “The Peninsula Serial Killer.”

In January of 2014, body parts were found scattered along the frozen landscape in China Township, Michigan.

In the summer of 2017, one young man went missing in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. While investigating his disappearance, it came to light that three other young men were missing in Bucks County at the same time. Days later, three of their bodies would be found, and the common thread between them would prove to be responsible for their deaths.

208: Murdaugh Murders- Part 2

Tue, 15 Mar 2022 14:00:00 -0000

Part 2 of 2

On June 7, 2021, Alex Murdaugh came home to his large property in Colleton County, South Carolina to find his wife, 52-year-old Maggie and his youngest son, 22-year-old Paul, dead from multiple gunshot wounds. The Murdaughs were a powerful and prominent family throughout the low country of South Carolina and the murders of Maggie and Paul made national news. Unfortunately, the significant media attention shed a bright spotlight on the Murdaugh family and their suspicious involvement in multiple deaths and the theft of millions of dollars. Throughout multiple investigations, law enforcement and the media have uncovered lies on top of lies that proved the Murdaughs weren’t only powerful and prominent; they had been above the law and used their name to cover-up countless crimes without any remorse. However, the question remained…who targeted Maggie and Paul Murdaugh, and most concerning, was it their own husband and father?

207: Murdaugh Murders- Part 1

Tue, 08 Mar 2022 15:00:00 -0000

Part 1 of 2.
On June 7, 2021, Alex Murdaugh came home to his large property in Colleton County, South Carolina to find his wife, 52-year-old Maggie and his youngest son, 22-year-old Paul, dead from multiple gunshot wounds. The Murdaughs were a powerful and prominent family throughout the low country of South Carolina and the murders of Maggie and Paul made national news. Unfortunately, the significant media attention shed a bright spotlight on the Murdaugh family and their suspicious involvement in multiple deaths and the theft of millions of dollars. Throughout multiple investigations, law enforcement and the media have uncovered lies on top of lies that proved the Murdaughs weren’t only powerful and prominent; they had been above the law and used their name to cover-up countless crimes without any remorse. However, the question remained…who targeted Maggie and Paul Murdaugh, and most concerning, was it their own husband and father?

In middle Tennessee, about a half hour or so north of Nashville lies Robertson County. In March of 2004, Jennifer Wix and her two year old daughter Adrianna disappeared without a trace, and the story being told by her then boyfriend, Joseph “Joey” Benton, just doesn’t make sense to most people.

205: Shooting Victim Ryan Waller's Unbelievable Abuse by Police

Tue, 22 Feb 2022 15:00:00 -0000

In 2006, Don Waller made plans to have Christmas dinner with his son Ryan and Ryan’s girlfriend Heather Quan. Don called Ryan before dinner and throughout the day to remind him, but Ryan never answered his calls. After Dinner, Don called once again, and again, the call went unanswered. Don went to Ryan’s house, and when there was no answer to the door, called the police to have them initiate a welfare check. When they finally arrived, they discovered that Heather was deceased after being shot, and Ryan looked as if he had been in a fight. They set their sights on Ryan as their prime suspect, but that all changed during his interrogation.

199: Ted Kaczynski (The Unabomber) Part 2

Tue, 11 Jan 2022 15:00:00 -0000

On April 3rd, 1996, three men approached a secluded cabin in Lincoln, Montana. The owner, 53-year-old Ted Kaczynski opened the door and was quickly apprehended by the FBI. The agents celebrated the fact they’d finally caught him. They’d finally caught the Unabomber, the subject of the largest manhunt in the history of the United States. It was estimated to cost approximately 50 million dollars. He was a man who’d terrorized the United States beginning in 1978. Through 17 years, Kaczynski had mailed or placed 16 bombs, injuring 23 people, and killing 3. He was finally caught when his own brother noted similarities in his Kaczynski’s letters to him and the manifesto that the Unabomber had published by The Washington Post. Kaczynski became a cultural icon, with people wearing his suspect sketch printed on t-shirts. (There are ones that have his pic and say ‘you’ve got mail’. Im ashamed to admit that i laughed) Many people agreed with his theories and ideas regarding technology’s toxic effect on society. After being caught, Kaczynski said that he wanted revenge, to get back at the system. Still, no one could understand what made a man murder three people and attempt the murder of countless others. Was he insane or was he simply a man who feared the death of society and wanted to get his ideas heard?

197: The Disappearance of Johnny Gosch

Sat, 01 Jan 2022 15:00:00 -0000

In the early morning of September 5th, 1982, 12-year-old Johnny Gosch set out for his morning paper route in West Des Moines, Iowa. Typically, Johnny’s father woke up early to help him with delivering the papers. Recently, Johnny had been begging his parents to let him complete the route on his own. His parents told him that he couldn't. However that Sunday morning, he didn’t wake up his father and left to collect his newspapers. Other paperboys saw Johnny speaking to a man in a car and then continuing on his way. Several witnesses reported seeing the car again and a man walking out from between two houses to follow Johnny. Later that morning, neighbors began calling Johnny’s parents to ask why their paper hadn’t been delivered. Johnny’s dad went to look for his son and found his abandoned wagon and his little dog that he’d taken with him. Johnny was nowhere to be found. 39-years-later, there still has not been a proper investigation into his disappearance and he has never been located. Was Johnny simply a runaway or was he abducted and forced into the world of child trafficking?

Lost Hills: Dead in the Water- Lost Hills investigates the dark side of Malibu, California. Beneath a seductive facade, this city of billionaires, celebrities, and surf bums is hiding something menacing. Season 2 takes place in the late 70s and early ‘80s, as Malibu was changing from a low-profile beach town into a celebrity haven, full of new money and hard drugs. When a Malibu woman and her son mysteriously drowned, her husband was arrested for their murders—and ultimately convicted. But to this day, many people—including the victim's family—claim he’s innocent.

And listen back to season 1, which chronicled the horrifying story of a man killed in a Malibu campground while sleeping beside his young daughters—and exposed a law-enforcement coverup.

For about an hour on December 28th, 1987, the town of Russellville, Arkansas was under siege. A gunman had gone on a shooting spree, targeting what seemed to be random businesses and people.

195: The Murder of Brandon Embry

Sat, 18 Dec 2021 15:00:00 -0000

On September 12th, 2019, 33-year-old Brandon Embry was found nude, unconscious, and barely breathing in a pool of his own blood on the floor of his Asheboro, North Carolina apartment. He had sustained significant trauma and was covered in blood, bruises, and cuts. He was so severely injured that he did not survive. Investigators were quick to conclude that Brandon’s cause of death was pneumonia, and that he had self-inflicted his injuries during a meth-induced fit. They closed his case less than six months after his death, stating that they did not have enough evidence to investigate Brandon’s death as a homicide. This statement was made despite the obvious signs of a struggle, brutal assault, and a girlfriend with a history of violence, obsession, and pathological lying. Brandon’s mother, Sarah however, is determined to make sure that her son’s story is heard and that he gets justice, despite what the Asheboro Police Department failed to do.

192: Byron David Smith: Self Defense or Murder?

Sat, 27 Nov 2021 15:00:00 -0000

Leading up to Thanksgiving 2012, Byron David Smith claimed that his home had been broken into at least half a dozen times over the course of a few months, only one of which he reported to the police. On Thanksgiving Day, 2012, Byron was home, reading a book in his favorite reading chair when he heard glass break and decided to take matters into his own hands. The next moments were captured on an audio recorder, as Byron shot Haile Kifer and Nicholas Brady, two teens from his neighborhood. It would be up to a jury to decide, was it self defense or murder?

191: Cult: Alamo Christian Foundation- Part 2

Sat, 20 Nov 2021 15:00:00 -0000

Part 2 of 2. In the late 1960’s, Hollywood Boulevard was filled with people carrying flyers that said “Repent or Perish.” These people were members of The Alamo Christian Foundation, a ministry led by husband and wife, Tony and Susan Alamo. The two called themselves prophets and said that God spoke directly to them. What started as a chance meeting in a bar led to the formation of one of the most notorious cults in America. To many onlookers, the “foundation” just appeared to be a strange type of ministry. Little did they know that behind closed doors and away from the cameras, there was rampant physical assaults, child abuse, sexual abuse, and child pornography. The man who stood at the head of the foundation and referred to himself as the “teflon pastor” soon dug his own grave and unraveled in front of America, with no one to blame but himself.

189: Amy Mihaljevic

Sat, 06 Nov 2021 14:00:00 -0000

10-year-old Amy Mihaljevic was a beautiful, bright young girl living in the sleepy town of Bay Village, Ohio with her family. She loved school, horses, and being silly. In the summer of 1989, she and her best friend Kristy brought out a Ouija board at a sleepover. Amy asked the board when she would die and the board spelled out S-O-O-N. The girls didn’t think much of it. Less than six months after their summer sleepover, Amy was dead. She’d been abducted by an unknown man who'd convinced her over the phone to meet him to buy her mother a present. The same man had attempted to meet with other young girls around the area by calling their houses and telling them that he was friends with their mother. Though on the day of her abduction, Amy had sat through a stranger danger presentation at school, something about this man had convinced her that he was safe. What had this man said to Amy, and more importantly, WHO WAS HE?

186: The Ariel Castro Kidnappings

Sat, 16 Oct 2021 14:00:00 -0000

Between 2002 and 2004, three girls between the ages of 14 and 21 vanished from the streets of Cleveland, Ohio. They were all last seen within a few block radius of one another and seemingly disappeared into thin air. A short phone call after one of the girls went missing was the only clue and it didn’t provide police with much to go on. Then, almost 11 years after the first woman went missing, the three girls were found, having been held captive in the home of a local school bus driver. All three girls were alive, but had suffered through years of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. The man who had abducted them seemed like a normal guy to his friends and neighbors, however he turned out to be a violent control-freak who made three women his sex slaves. The scariest part? All three women knew the man who abducted them and held them as prisoners.

185: Missing- Brianna Maitland

Sat, 09 Oct 2021 14:00:00 -0000

On Friday, March 19th, 2004, 17-year-old Brianna Maitland clocked out of her job at the Black Lantern Inn in Montgomery, Vermont at 11:20PM. She told her co-workers that she needed to get home and get some rest before starting at her second part time job the next morning. Brianna was never seen again. In the early morning hours of the following day, her vehicle was found off the road and backed into a nearby abandoned farmhouse. Her keys were gone, but her migraine medication and contacts were still inside. 17 years later, Brianna is still missing. Initially thought to possibly be a runaway, it soon became clear that Brianna was the victim of foul play. Was it drug related or was Brianna the victim of an accident that was covered up by friends who were too scared to admit their involvement?

183: The Menendez Brothers

Sat, 25 Sep 2021 14:00:00 -0000

On August 20, 1989, José and Mary “Kitty” Menendez were shot to death in their Beverly Hills home. Nearly seven years, three trials and many thousands of hours of TV coverage later, their sons, Lyle and Erik Menendez, were found guilty of their murders and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. In between, the Menendez murders became one of the most famous criminal cases of the late 20th century thanks to its potent mix of family drama, Hollywood connections, dramatic testimony and cable TV’s ability to blanket the airwaves with coverage.

After the sun had set on August 16th, 1980 at Ayers Rock in Central Australia, 32-year-old Lindy Chamberlain ran from the tent at her campsite towards the communal barbecue area, screaming that a dingo had her baby. Nine-week-old Azaria Chamberlain, who’d been put to sleep just a few minutes earlier by her mother, Lindy, had disappeared from the tent. Lindy watched as a dingo ran out of their tent, carrying something in its mouth. A search ensued, but the baby’s remains were never found. Was a wild dingo to blame for the death of the baby girl, or were her parents covering up a murder?

174: Mysterious Death of Kendrick Johnson

Sat, 24 Jul 2021 14:00:00 -0000

On Thursday, January 10, 2013, 17-year-old Kendrick Johnson never returned home after a day at school. The following day, his body was found wedged in the middle of a large wrestling mat in the corner of his Valdosta, Georgia high school’s gym. Kendrick’s death was ruled a tragic accident and the investigation was closed after four months. However, the Johnson family was adamant that their son was the victim of foul play and his death was being covered up by law enforcement and school officials. Was Kendrick Johnson murdered by other students at school or did he fall into the mat while trying to retrieve his shoes, causing him to suffocate to death?

173: Wonderland Murders- Part 2

Sat, 17 Jul 2021 14:00:00 -0000

Part 2 of 2.

On July 1st, 1981, workers for a moving company heard noises coming from the house next to the one they were working at and saw a few men running from the house. When they went to investigate, they stumbled upon one of the most gruesome crime scenes that L.A. County has ever seen. Inside the home, the police found 4 bodies, beaten almost beyond recognition, and a 5th person, barely clinging to life despite her severe injuries.

The Wonderland Gang, as they were known, had been attacked during the night as payback for their actions against nightclub owner Eddie Nash only days before.

On Mother’s Day in 1985, Katie Eastburn and 2 of her daughters, 5-year-old Kara and 3-year-old Erin, were found dead in their Fayetteville, NC home. They had been brutally murdered 3 days before and the only survivor in the house was 21-month-old, Jana. Left in her crib for 3 days, Jana was spared the same fate as her mom and sisters. Their attacker, Tim Hennis would go on to be convicted and sentenced to death and then acquitted AND THEN convicted to death again in a military court-martial. He and his supporters continue to maintain her innocence, but it’s hard to argue with DNA.

On Friday, April 8th, 1994, the body of rockstar Kurt Cobain was found in his Seattle home, dead from an apparent suicide. Along with the death of the Nirvana lead singer and guitarist came a slew of theories about his death. Many people believed that his wife, singer Courtney Love, arranged to have him murdered when he threatened to leave her.

160: Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders

Sat, 17 Apr 2021 14:00:00 -0000

On the morning of Sunday, June 12, 1977, over a hundred young girls and their families gathered at the Girl Scout headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Everyone was saying their goodbyes as the girls loaded onto their buses and headed for Camp Scott, just about an hour away in Mayes County, Oklahoma. The Girl Scout camp promised two weeks of adventure, swimming, horseback riding, crafts, and hiking. Some of the girls were excited for their trip, while others were nervous about spending 14 days away from their families. However, within 24 hours, the girls would be back on the buses heading back to Tulsa, with no explanation as to why. Three girls, 8-year-old Lori Farmer, 9-year-old Michelle Guse, and 10-year-old Denise Milner had been found dead that morning, laying in the woods about 100 feet from their tent. There was clear evidence of foul play. Almost 2 years later, after the largest manhunt in Oklahoma history, a man was arrested and charged with their murders. However, much of the community was not convinced that this was the man behind the massacre. The trial turned the courtroom and the community into a circus and seemed to forget about the most important question: Who killed Lori, Michelle, and Denise?

Sat, 10 Apr 2021 14:00:00 -0000

In the early morning hours of Wednesday, April 13th, 2011, 20-year-old Holly Bobo was sitting at her kitchen table, studying for a nursing test she had that day. She said goodbye to her mother and father as they left for work. Around 7:40AM, Holly’s older brother Clint was awakened by their dog barking. He heard voices coming from the carport behind their home. Through the blinds, he saw his sister Holly kneeling on the ground facing a man in camo, arguing. They then got up and began walking into the woods. Clint quickly called his mother who told him to grab a gun and shoot the man. The two disappeared behind the trees and Holly was never seen again. Her remains were later found in the woods leaving Holly’s family and the small, close-knit community, who would’ve murdered the promising young nursing student, and why?

149: Unsolved: Delphi Murders

Sat, 30 Jan 2021 15:00:00 -0000

Monday February 13, 2017 was a warmer than normal day in the city of Delphi, Indiana. 14-year old Libby and 13-year-old Abby were excited to have a day off from school. The two decided to go for a hike on the Monon High Bridge Trail, not far from their homes. When Libby’s father arrived to pick the girls up, he couldn’t reach the girls by phone. He walked the trail, looking for the girls, figuring they’d simply lost track of time.

Less than 24 hours later, the deceased bodies of both girls were found, less than a mile from where they began their hike. It was clear from the scene that the girls had been victims of homicide, but what wasn’t clear was who targeted these teenage girls and why their day at the trails had ended so tragically.

Christmas is a time to be with loved ones, give and receive gifts, and celebrate all that you have. It’s a time when the year is coming to an end and soon everyone will be making New Year's resolutions. All the songs are joyful and uplifting and all the movies are hopeful and full of love. But we’re true crime junkies so we know that that shit isn’t real life and that real life is often terrible.

So, in this time of comfort and joy, we thought our awkward army of 90s loving, true crime addicted listeners might be ok with the cheer-level being taken down a few notches just for a little bit while we talk about some Christmases that were far more horrific than they were merry.
And, we’re going to gift you with more than one case, in fact we’re giving you 3! AND we’re going to switch off reading the cases. So, Merry Christmas and let’s unwrap your first unfortunate gift.

It was a warm day in Tulsa, Oklahoma on June 7, 2011. A repairman had just walked out of a 32 story apartment building to grab some supplies from his truck. Another man nearby was taking a break from work and had stepped outside for some fresh air. A loud crash broke through the quiet afternoon and both men looked up to see Josh Hilberling falling from the broken window of his 25th floor apartment. He landed on the concrete roof of the 8th floor parking garage. His wife, Amber, 7 months pregnant and still in the apartment, screamed in terror and rushed down the elevator to him, but it was too late. 23-year-old Josh Hilberling was dead. Five years later, serving 25 years for the second degree murder of her husband, tragedy would strike the family again. Did she truly murder Josh, or was it a horrible accident? And what really happened to Amber in that jail cell?

126: Captured- Yaser Said

Sat, 29 Aug 2020 11:49:00 -0000

On January 1, 2008, Sarah and Amina Said were fatally shot by their father, Yaser Said. He allegedly committed this crime against his own children as an "honor killing." Yaser Said did not approve of the way his daughters were growing up in the world and took it upon himself to decide whether they lived or died. He then went on the run for 12 years and was on the FBI "Most Wanted" list until August 26, 2020 when he was taken into custody. Now, this piece of shit can face justice in a court of law.
RIP, Amina and Sarah ❤️

Don Lewis disappeared on August 18, 1997, after leaving his home in Tampa, Florida to make a trip to Costa Rica as he had done many times before. He has never been seen or heard from again. There is much speculation around his disappearance that his wife at the time- now remarried Carole Baskin- had something to do with his disappearance.

We discuss the facts in the case and take a serious look at whether there is really enough evidence to support Carole having murdered Don.

112: Aileen Wuornos- Part 1

Sat, 23 May 2020 10:14:00 -0000

Aileen Wuornos is said to be one of America’s first female serial killers not in a caregiving capacity. Her murders reflected an intense rage and violence that was previously not associated with women.
She killed at least 7 men between 1989-1990, claiming all were acts of self defense. She was later executed for her crimes.

111: Joanne Dennehy

Sat, 16 May 2020 12:07:00 -0000

Joanne Dennehy is somewhat of an enigma in the true crime world. Female serial killers are much more rare than their male counterparts, but female spree killers are virtually unheard of.
In March of 2013, Joanne murdered three men in cold blood and without warning or motive. The murders are referred to as the “Peterborough Ditch Murders” because all three men died of stab wounds and had been dumped in ditches just outside Peterborough. But she didn’t stop there- she also stabbed two other innocent men who thankfully survived.
In this 1 part episode, we discuss Joanne’s history and what could have driven her to commit such heinous acts of violence. We also discuss whether “you have very distinctive eyebrows” is a pick up line that actually works.

69: Darlie Routier- Reasonable Doubt? Part 2

Sat, 20 Jul 2019 11:00:00 -0000

Darlie Routier was convicted of stabbing her 5 year old son Damon to death in 1996. She has never been charged in the murder of her 6 year old son Devon, who was also stabbed to death the same night. Darlie has always maintained that a masked intruder is the perpetrator of this heinous crime, but police say the evidence points to her. Darlie was sentenced to death for the murder of Damon Routier. But is there enough reasonable doubt in this case to warrant a second look at the evidence? Is there enough proof that Darlie murdered her own children?

A HUGE thank you to Sloane, who researched and wrote this episode. We couldn’t have done it without you!
