I am releasing this episode to the main feed to see what you guys think about the Split Second series. This is a series that I've started on Patreon and I would like to continue it as I have 3 episodes ready to be edited and posted. I am thinking about changing the Patreon tiers so that more listeners can benefit from the extra content, prize giveaways, and no ads. Please let me know what you think of this episode!THANK YOU SO MUCH, Scott of the Frozen Truth & Status Pending Podcasts for the intro and editing!As you may recall, I posted briefly on Instagram via the Whack-job Wednesday series about this guy a few months ago. This case intrigued me as it was so close to home and everything changed in a split second. I have always loved the outdoors and especially bike riding...so seeing that this is exactly how 20-year-old Sierah Joughin lost her life; my heart broke and my stomach knotted up. Listen to this episode and let me know what you think about the twists and turns this case has. You may be hearing another case in the near future that could potentially be linked.

Did you know that in Indiana (where this case takes place) under extreme circumstances, children as young as 10 years old can be tried and sentenced in adult courts? The child that we will be discussing in this case remains one of the youngest EVER to be tried in this fashion. In this collaboration, Heather and Warbaby (from the Murderous Minors: Killer Kids podcast) discuss Paul Henry Gingerich and Colt Lundy. On April 20, 2010, Indiana; 12-year-old Gingerich and Lundy were at Colt's home in Cromwell, Indiana (which is about 2.5 hours NE of Indianapolis or 1 hour NW of Fort Wayne) with Colt's 49-year-old stepfather, Phillip Danner. They decided that they wanted to steal Danner’s truck and drive to Arizona. They determined that the only way to get away with it was to “take care of him [Phillip]”. How would they do this? They shot him…with his own hand guns.

(S1) Kyle Plush: Answer the Call (with Lisa) Oct 05, 2018

Show notes

*This is a listener FAVORITE from Season 1. We are using a new format and recording style for Season 3 and beyond. We have kept this episode on the main feed as it was one that the listeners loved.
In this collaboration, Heather and Lisa (from the Eye for an Eye podcast) discuss the tragic death of 16-year-old Cincinnatian, Kyle Plush. He was reaching for a tennis racket that was located behind the seat in the back of his van when the seat collapsed, folding shut on the teen as he dialed 911 for help. This story is so tragic because it seems as though he did everything in his power to get help to no avail. He was discovered dead 6 hours later, in his vehicle, in the parking lot of his school. There was one positive outcome from this horrible tragedy though; check out www.kyleplushanswerthecall.org to see what the family is doing in his honor to create a safer community.

(S1) Black Dahlia: Part 1 (with Augie Peterson) Sep 14, 2018

Show notes

*This is a listener FAVORITE from Season 1. We are using a new format and recording style for Season 3 and beyond. We have kept this episode on the main feed as it was one that the listeners loved.
In this special collaboration episode, Heather teams up with Augie Peterson from the Short Stories of Augie Peterson podcast! In part 1; you will hear about the case of Elizabeth Short, aka the "Black Dahlia". This is found on the Nature vs Narcissism feed - well, would you look at that...you're already here! In part 2; you will hear about the movie adaptation of the case...which apparently had nothing to do with the actual life and murder of Elizabeth Short. In enough words...this movie was absolutely terrible and Augie has the review to back that up! So, if you need a nice pallet cleanser after hearing about the absolute brutality of this case, then head on over to the Short Stories of Augie Peterson feed! Nicknamed "the Black Dahlia," Elizabeth Short was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on July 29, 1924. Twenty-two years later, Short, an aspiring actress, was brutally murdered in Los Angeles, California, her body cut in half and severely mutilated. Her body was found on January 15, 1947, in a vacant lot near Leimert Park. The Black Dahlia's killer was never found, making her murder one of the oldest cold case files in L.A. to date, as well as the city's most famous.
