Episode 96 True Crime: The Murder of Mark Carson May 27, 2021

Show notes

Welcome to our last, off season, true crime stories covering Taylor Nolan’s tweets. Danielle recaps all the stories we’ve covered, gives an announcement about the next Bachelor / True Crime schedule for the pod and covers a story from West Village, New York (with a little help from our friend Bix from In The Moment with Liv and Bix podcast).

Danielle covers the LGBTQ+ hate crime murder of Mark Carson. Mark was gunned down after being attacked with homophobic slurs as he walked down the street with his friend minding his own business. Elliot Morales then pulled several stunts at trial that shocked us and the media.

We have covered some very sensitive and triggering topics. We did this to highlight all the marginalized communities that were affected by what Taylor tweeted. It is NOT a victimless crime. We will continue to cover these important topics and highlight underrepresented stories.

Episode 93 True Crime: The Murder of Priyadarshini Mattoo May 06, 2021

Show notes

We’re still talking about the groups that were attacked in Taylor Nolan’s tweets … and NO we are not done (slaps hand on face emoji). Taylor made some disgusting tweets about Indian people. This week Danielle is telling us about a case that takes place in New Delhi, India.

Danielle tells us, briefly, about India’s current COVID crisis. She then goes on to tell us about Priyadarshini Mattoo. Priya, for short, was a beautiful 23-year-old law student that was stalked and brutally murdered. The injustice of her murder is brought to light, while highlighting other cases that occurred around the same time. There is a conviction at the end, but the final outcome will leave you shocked, angry, and speechless!
