E76: Nathaniel White Apr 23, 2020

Show notes

This week Beth and Wendy discuss the crimes of Nathaniel “Nate” White, a black serial killer active in the Hudson Valley region of New York during the early 1990s. White confessed to murdering five women and one girl while still on parole. This subject was suggested to us by surviving thriving on Instagram.
We dive into the setting, the killer's early life, and the timeline (12:13). Then we get into the investigation & arrest, followed by "Where are they now?". We get into our Take Aways and what we think made the perp snap. As usual we close out the show with some shout outs, and of course, some tips on how not to get murdered.

E73: Chai Soua Vang Feb 27, 2020

Show notes

Today Wendy & Beth discuss the case of Chai Soua Vang, a Hmong American man who was hunting in Wisconsin, wandered onto private land and was confronted. This led to Vang killing six and wounding two during this hunting dispute.

He’s more like a mass murderer than a serial killer, but sometimes we like to cover these cases anyway, and this one is particularly interesting.
