When a mangled car is found slammed into an industrial building in a Cleveland suburb, it leaves two young men dead and their 17-year-old friend, Mackenzie Shirilla, as the only survivor. As investigators dig in, they uncover chilling speed data, strange social media posts, a history of threats, and a hospital interview where Mackenzie literally tries to speak in code, all of which leave investigators wondering - was this a one-car-accident? Or had Mackenzie done this on purpose... Sources: Cite as State v. Shirilla, 2024-Ohio-4674.

This week, we’re headed to Dublin, where a silent teenage girl appears out of nowhere on the steps of the GPO. She was shivering, terrified, and seemingly too traumatized to even say her own name. As police scramble to figure out who she is, they uncover drawings that hint at something horrific… and a trail that stretches far beyond Ireland. What starts as a heartbreaking mystery about a possible trafficking victim turns into the twisted, globe-trotting story of Samantha Azzopardi: a woman who slips in and out of identities like costumes, leaving devastated families, terrified teenagers, and baffled authorities in her wake. How does someone build an entire life out of lies, and what does she really get out of it? We’re digging into the many lives of “Con Girl” and the very real damage left behind.

When 40-year-old Rosalio Gutierrez Jr. didn’t send his usual good-morning text, his girlfriend, Sadie, felt that little prickle of worry that’s impossible to ignore. By the time she reached his Kenosha apartment the next day, that worry had turned into something much darker. The patio door was open. Something red was splattered near the entrance. And inside… well, nothing could have prepared her for what she saw through the blinds. Rosalio was nowhere to be found, although the living room told a story no one ever wants to walk into. As detectives begin unraveling what happened inside that apartment, they are quickly pulled into a messy triangle involving a jealous ex, months of stalking behavior, hidden cell phones, late-night spying, and a van that suddenly smells suspiciously like bleach. When police discover a tiny speck of blood that changes everything, the investigation explodes in a whole new direction. But for all the evidence, one thing is still missing: Rosalio.

Investigators begin to unravel Nathan’s story: his strange calm, his inconsistencies, and a drift path that doesn’t add up. Civil battles follow: an insurance fight over Chicken Pox, and a slayer-statute case that could strip him of his inheritance. Years later, a federal indictment connects his grandfather’s shooting to his mother’s disappearance at sea. With no body, no murder weapon, and a family at war, what, if anything, can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt?

This episode as well as Part 2 are available ad free at all levels on the Patreon for the first week of release! A cargo ship spots a lone life raft 115 nautical miles south of Martha’s Vineyard. Inside is 22-year-old Nathan Carman. He's alert, steady on his feet, and claiming he’s survived seven days at sea after his fishing boat, Chicken Pox, sank. His mother, Linda, was on the boat with him and is now missing. As investigators press for answers, red flags pile up: no mayday call, an oddly pristine survivor, and a family history that reads like Dynasty meets Shakespeare, complete with a murdered patriarch, a sprawling fortune, and bitter rivalries. Is Nathan just misunderstood… or the common thread in two catastrophes?

When police arrived at the Gonzales family home in Sydney, Australia, they were met with a gruesome scene: three family members brutally murdered, and their only surviving relative, 20-year-old Sef Gonzales, sobbing hysterically in the driveway. At least, that’s what it looked like. It didn’t take long for detectives to realize something was off. The supposed break-in appeared staged, Sef’s story didn’t line up, and those dramatic tears? Completely dry. What followed was one of the most shocking and twisted murder investigations in Australian history, a story of lies, greed, and a son so desperate for approval and money that he would destroy everything in his path. This week, we’re diving into the horrifying case of Sef Gonzales and the murders of his family, a chilling reminder that sometimes the monster isn’t lurking outside your home… he’s living inside it.

It was Thanksgiving Day, 2012, in the small town of Little Falls, Minnesota. That morning, cousins Nick Brady and Haile Kifer set out to visit family for dinner. But when they never showed up, their loved ones were thrown into a desperate search. By the next day, their worst fears were confirmed—Nick and Haile had been killed inside the home of 64-year-old Byron Smith. At first glance, it looked like a tragic but lawful case of self-defense under Minnesota’s Castle Doctrine. Smith claimed he’d been terrorized by repeated break-ins and had finally snapped when the teens entered his home. But the investigation revealed something far more chilling: Byron Smith hadn’t been caught off guard. He’d been lying in wait. This week, we dive into the audio recordings that changed everything, the trial that divided the community, and the chilling words Smith used to justify what he’d done, which leaves us with the question: was this self defense… or murder?

Imagine being a teenager. Your phone is constantly going off, but every time it buzzes, it isn’t a friend. Instead, it’s a threat. For almost two years, high school students Lauryn Licari and Owen McKenny couldn’t escape the messages, the calls, the feeling that someone was always watching.

Eddie was more than just a legendary surfer—he was a true waterman, lifeguard, and Hawaiian icon. Known for riding massive waves at Waimea Bay and for saving hundreds of lives as Oahu’s first lifeguard on the North Shore, Eddie lived his life with courage and aloha. But his story goes deeper than surfing, with a fateful journey on the Hokule’a canoe cementing his place in history and his bittersweet legacy, one that still echoes in Hawaii and beyond.

While we're on break, we're busting open the vault and releasing some of our favorite bonus episodes we've done over the years, so please enjoy this bonus episode from 2022!! This is a case that inspired everything from the movie When A Stranger Calls to the urban legend The Babysitter and the Man Upstairs. Think "the call is coming from inside the house." It was March 18, 1950, a truly dark and stormy night. In Columbia, Missouri, 13 year old Janett Christman arrived at the Romack's home to babysit their 3 year old son. The boy was already sleeping when Janett arrived, so it should have been an easy night. But when the Romack's returned late that night, they found a horrible scene. Janett had been raped and strangled with an electric cord. As law enforcement investigates, they are stunned to see so many similarities between Janett's murder and another murder that happened nearby, 4 years previously. Learn more about your ad choices.

We're on our break, so enjoy this release of an episode from 2022, originally released exclusively on our Patreon! This is the true story behind the 2012 Richard Linklater movie, Bernie, starring Jack Black, Shirley McClaine, and Matthew McConaughey. It’s about an assistant funeral director, Bernie Tiede, who everyone in town loves, and who befriends a rich, elderly widow named Marjorie Nugent, who nobody likes. Marjorie becomes more and more controlling and more demanding, and Bernie goes to extreme lengths to get out from under her grasp. It’s described as a black comedy, of course with Jack Black at the helm, but after hearing more of the details of the case, it left people wondering: was the real Bernie Tiede the doting saint he was portrayed to be, or a conniving con man?

This week, we’re covering the shocking double murder of Holly Williams and her boyfriend Bill Lanway who were found shot to death in a car off the highway in Nashville in March 2020. At first, it looked like a tragic car accident, but what police uncovered pointed to something far more sinister. Holly, a Nashville aesthetician with a secret life, had unknowingly become the center of a dangerous web involving blackmail and a hit squad of ex-military operatives, hired not by a cartel or crime boss, but by a wealthy Texas car dealer trying to protect his reputation.

It’s one of the most bizarre and disturbing cases we’ve covered yet: when Sarah Boone called 911 in 2020 to report her boyfriend dead, she claimed it was all a tragic accident during a game of hide and seek. But the body of Jorge Torres told a different story.... and so did the videos Sarah forgot to delete. This week, we’re diving into the shocking case of Sarah Boone, the Florida woman who said she zipped her boyfriend into a suitcase “as a joke” and then left him there overnight. But investigators quickly found evidence that shattered her version of events, including horrifying footage of Jorge pleading for his life and Sarah laughing in response. We’ll break down the twisted timeline, the toxic relationship history, the long delayed trial, and the controversial use of battered woman syndrome as a defense. Was this a case of reactive abuse pushed to the limit, or calculated revenge? And what does justice look like when both people in a relationship have been hurt?

On New Year’s Eve 1997, 17-year-old Olivia Hope and her close friend Ben Smart vanished after a party at the remote Furneaux Lodge in New Zealand’s stunning Marlborough Sounds. They were last seen boarding a water taxi in the early hours of the morning with a man who’s never been conclusively identified. What followed was one of New Zealand’s most high-profile investigations, leading to the arrest and conviction of Scott Watson — a man who still claims he’s innocent. But the deeper you look into this case, the murkier it gets. With wildly conflicting witness statements, contaminated evidence, an allegedly unreliable memory, and new information buried for decades, this case has everything: mystery, obsession, media bias, and a whole lot of reasonable doubt ... or is there? Today, Kristin dives deep into the 40,000-page police file and multiple sources on both sides of this controversial case to try and answer one big question: Did Scott Watson really kill Ben and Olivia… or was he wrongfully convicted?

When 43-year-old Crystal Jones was found dead in her Oak Grove, Louisiana home in 2023, local law enforcement quickly ruled it a suicide. But nearly two years later, her sister Jana is still fighting for answers because so many things about Crystal’s death just don’t add up. From an oddly premature conclusion, to a mysteriously delayed shell casing finding, to troubling inconsistencies in her husband’s story, this case is full of red flags that were seemingly ignored.

In this episode, special guest Kelsey from A Trial By Podcast tells Kristin all about the murder of Kendra Hatcher, a 35-year-old pediatric dentist living in Dallas, Texas, who was shot and killed in the parking garage of her upscale apartment complex on September 2, 2015. The murder was orchestrated by Brenda Delgado, the ex-girlfriend of Kendra’s boyfriend, Ricky Paniagua, who had grown jealous of their relationship. Brenda recruited Crystal Cortes to drive getaway and hired Kristopher Love to carry out the shooting, promising payment in exchange. Delgado provided Cortes with information about Kendra’s whereabouts and used her connections to obtain the murder weapon. The plot unraveled quickly as investigators tracked down Cortes, who confessed and implicated both Love and Delgado. Love was later convicted and sentenced to death, while Delgado, who had fled to Mexico, was extradited and received a life sentence. The case shocked the community not only for its calculated nature, but also because of the seemingly senseless motive: jealousy.
