#319 - Satanic Stupidity - Sanford, Maine Sep 17, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Sanford, Maine, when a neighborhood girl disappears, then is found, half in a river, covered in sticks & leaves, police interview over one hundred people, in the hopes of getting some kind of clue that may lead them to the killer. Attention quickly focuses on a neighborhood teenager, with a creepy history, a love for girls that wear purple, and a real penchant for Satan, and anything remotely Satanic! He has a history of scaring girls in school, and stealing grapes, but could he have done something so horrific?? And is there a murderous cult roaming these small town streets??

Along the way, we find out that Maine really wants you to eat pumpkins, that three high school idiots don't equal a cult, and that you tripped over a body isn't a good excuse for murder!!

#318 - A Fantasy Of Violence - Tillamook, Oregon Sep 15, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Tillamook, Oregon, a father surprises his loving & upstanding family with a trip, up the Oregon coast, for a couple of days. This sounds great, until everyone comes up missing. Four of the five family members are found, deep in a National Forest area, but police & FBI don't know if Dad is a victim, or a terribly cold blooded murderer! A nationwide manhunt leads authorities everywhere besides where he actually wasWhen he's caught, he remains polite, but the story he tells is anything but nice. A horrific tale, that will leave so many questions, and a trail of awfulness!! Was he trying to trade in his former life, for a life of living in "dirt houses" & killing for a living?!?!

Along the way, we find out that Oregon is very proud of their cheese, that you don't always want a "surprise", and that you can't just decide to trade in your life, for one that you know nothing about!!

#317 - Freebird For Life - Ashdown, Arkansas Sep 10, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Ashdown, Arkansas, a strange night unfolds, from what seems like a typical Friday night of fish stick eating, and drinking at the local bar, for a mother & teenage son, living in a Texarkana area trailer. The son, a 17 year old dropout, turned welder comes home to a bloody scene, that looks like it's straight out of a horror movie. The police think they have their man, with a married, sometime boyfriend, with blood in his trunk, until everything changes, when a wild note is sent to the police, with both threats, and valuable info!

Along the way, we find out that you might not want to be Texarkana's longest serving band, that when there are skull pieces in your living room, that's certainly a problem, and sometimes motive isn't all that important!!

Show notes

This week, in Cochranton, Pennsylvania, three young women navigate through relationships, with some lingering feelings, and resentments between two the women, who used to be in a relationship.

No one claims to know anything, until a shallow grave is found, and the unbelievably terrible murder is uncovered. The killers end up being proud of the murder, and writing about their desire to commit more!!

#315 - A Dangerously Unpredictable Cannibal - Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Canada Sep 03, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Canada, an unpredictable, and unbelievable scene happens, seemingly out of nowhere, leaving someone without a head, and some other body parts. The even crazier part is that the killer forced a large group of people to helplessly watch as he stabbed, beheaded, and began to eat the victim. When the murderer was taken into custody, he even had a few parts, in his pocket. This leads to a strange outcome in court, but there's no way that person will ever walk the streets, again, right? Right?? RIGHT??? Not so fast...

Along the way, we find out that Canada loves potatoes, that you truly never know who you're sitting next to, and that the only thing worse than being on a Greyhound bus, is being beheaded & eaten on a Greyhound bus!!

#314 - Ladies Love A Vampire - Washington, North Carolina Sep 01, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Washington, North Carolina, a very strange scene unfolds, when a man who doesn't seem to have much going for him, except a vampire name, has many women at his disposal, including a wife, and a pair of identical twins. While he lives in a trailer with his wife, and a school bus, with his twins, this odd arrangement doesn't end up working for everyone, and it sends him into a rage. But who will be on who's side? And how does any of this result in bound, gagged people, and "skull plates" resting nearby. A twisted story, leading to a bloody mess, and an odd game of death penalty chicken!

Along the way, we find out that breakfast is an important meal in the south, that having a vampire name doesn't make you an actual vampire, and when a pair of twins want blood, no one is stopping them!!

#313 - Last Man Hanging - Cheswold, Delaware Aug 27, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Cheswold, Delaware, a man who comes from absolutely awful conditions ends up leading a pretty predicable life of crime. Until one day, when he has a complete breakdown, going on a spree that ends up with a trail of terrorized people, and two dead people, one of which is missing half of a head. Its a horrible, bloody mess. The results are insane courtroom outbursts, misspelled letters to the victims' family, and the possibility of being the last man hanged in the United States! But will it happen?

Along the way, we find out that Delaware needs more restaurants, that growing up in the modern age, without indoor plumbing seems to lead to bad life outcomes, and that the fatter you are, the less drop you need when they hang you!

#312 - Drowning In Stupidity & Evidence - Fort Smith, Montana Aug 25, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Fort Smith, Montana, an ambitious, and educated young couple settle into this tiny town, with high hopes. But as things begin to crumble, there are everything from public arguments to assaults with, and over, cookies. One night, one of the couple leaves, and doesn't come home, only to be found, floating face down in the river, with plenty of evidence to show that they didn't just tumble into the water. But will lousy police work, a seeming lack of effort, and some possible incompetence ruin the whole investigation, and make a family suffer even more? It's a hairy, dirty murder mystery, that will shock you, all the way up to the current day!

Along the way, we find out that everyone can't wait to pretend to be Custer, that no one falls into water & strangles themselves, and that burned cookies are never cause for violence!!

#311 - Lust, Death, Insanity... And A Potato - Bagdad, Arizona Aug 19, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Bagdad, Arizona, a man is attacked, in his front yard by a masked assailant, who immediately flees the scene. The only evidence at the scene is a little blood, and some shards of potato, baffling the investigators. His new, young bride thinks that her ex-husband must be the killer, but it turns out, she's been shacking up with a local insane man, who works with her, as a nurse's aide, but claims to be a doctor, lawyer, fighter pilot, and CIA agent, as well. He also claims that jail is controlling his thoughts, with a large machine, and writes letters to everyone, including the President of the US to try to get some relief. Will they execute a man, who is so clearly nuts? How do you use a potato for murder purposes?

Along the way, we find out that the desert is an unforgiving place, that stupid, unattractive people can sometimes be swayed by smarter, more attractive people, and that you should never include a potato in your murder kit!!

#310 - The Bloodbath Brothers - Pulaski, Tennessee Aug 18, 2022

Show notes

This week, in Pulaski, Tennessee, twin brothers, who have been what can only be described as "strange", from a young age, end up involved in a life of crime. Their house becomes a central gathering point, and is called "The Spahn Ranch of Tennessee", as their makeshift Manson clan comes & goes. The house also becomes a center for vicious & bloody murder, including bathtub dismemberments, and backyard cremations. They get away with this, several times, until it all comes crumbling down. The scariest thing is... will they ever get out of prison??

Along the way, we find out that southern Tennessee REALLY likes SunDrop soda, that rubber burns at an apparently very high temperature, and that the desire to kill, in awful ways seems to be shared by twins!!
