Show notes

The Bully And Shaming of Audrie Pott By Her Classmates Which Led To Her 2012 Death by Suicide
**The sound quality of the first couple dozen episodes of this show isn't good; I was still learning!! Skip ahead about a year! Also, KD is no longer a part of the Orbital Jigsaw Network or Blubrry**
Audrie Pott, a 15 year old Northern California high school student, attended a house party Labor Day weekend of 2012, a few days before the start of her sophomore year. After passing out from heavy drinking, Audrie was stripped of her clothes, her body, including her genital areas, was drawn on all over using indelible sharpie markers with obscenities and she was sexually assaulted by three boys. They also took photos and videos of the assault and distributed the images to all of their friends. Eight days later, Audrie hanged herself from her bathroom shower. Subject of the Netflix documentary “Audrie and Daisy”, today we delve into this story that takes a look at sexual assault, rape culture, social media, and the roles of men and women in perpetuating, as well as combating sexual violence in society.
UPDATE: Last August, Daisy Coleman, 23, the rape survivor featured in the Netflix documentary Audrie & Daisy, was found dead by suicide in her home. In a devastating twist, nearly four months later, Daisy’s mother, Melinda — who initially posted about her daughter’s passing on Facebook — was also found dead by suicide at home, according to Rolling Stone. Daisy passed away on August 4, 2020 and Melinda passed away on December 6, 2020.

**The sound quality of the first couple dozen episodes of this show isn't good; I was still learning!! Skip ahead about a year! Also, KD is no longer a part of the Orbital Jigsaw Network or Blubrry**
In 2003 Joy Risker suddenly vanished without a trace from her home in San Diego, California. Her husband, Sean Goff, told her friends and loved ones that she ran off to be with another man. They even received emails from Joy, telling them that she was off, finding herself and to just leave her alone. But something wasn’t sitting right with them. They knew she wouldn’t just walk out on her children like this. They knew her marriage was troubled. Sean Goff was a polygamist and Joy was his junior wife and she grew tired of being a part of it. She was ready to leave, but Goff would not let Joy tarnish his reputation as a spiritual leader in the polygamist community by walking out on him.

[Bonus] The Tale of the Disappearance of Patti Adkins [Vacation Series] Jan 19, 2018

Show notes

The Mysterious Disappearance Of Patti Adkins Of Marysville, Ohio
**The sound quality of the first couple dozen episodes of this show isn't good; I was still learning!! Skip ahead about a year! Also, KD is no longer a part of the Orbital Jigsaw Network or Blubrry**
In 2001 Patti Adkins disappeared after leaving work at the Honda factory in Marysville, Ohio. In this bonus episode of Killafornia Dreaming, as a part of the Vacation Series, I was reminded of her story when one of my posts about it from almost 4 years ago popped up in my feed. Coincidentally, we’ve been talking about Ohio for a couple of weeks now and it only seems appropriate to discuss her story, as it remains open, it’s cold, and it’s very solvable. And there’s a definitive person of interest, which make the case even more intriguing. There is a suspect. He can't really be publicly named (though he isn't hard to find) but his name rhymes with "Lyon Showers"!

**The sound quality of the first couple dozen episodes of this show isn't good; I was still learning!! Skip ahead about a year! Also, KD is no longer a part of the Orbital Jigsaw Network or Blubrry**
Bryce Laspisa went missing on August 30, 2013 in the Castaic Lake area of California. After giving away some of his belongings and breaking up with his girlfriend, Bryce hit the road, seemingly headed home to his parents' home in Orange County. But he never made it there...he lingered at truck stops, as he hesitated as to what he was going to do. And then his vehicle was found crashed off an embankment, with no sign of what happened to Bryce. He has not been seen or heard from since. Where is he? Did he walk away from his life? Did he commit suicide? It's anybody's guess. I'm joined by the amazing host of The Mysterious Circumstances Podcast, Justin Rimmel for this episode.

The Story Of Mass Murderer And Family Annihilator Vincent Brothers
**The sound quality of the first couple dozen episodes of this show isn't good; I was still learning!! Skip ahead about a year! Also, KD is no longer a part of the Orbital Jigsaw Network or Blubrry**
[Formerly titled "The Impossible Weekend"]. Vincent Brothers was accused of the worst crime imaginable - the slaughter of his entire family including his three young children, ages 4, 2, and 6 weeks. But he seemingly had a rock solid alibi - he claims was 2300 miles away in Columbus, Ohio when the killings occurred. Could he have orchestrated this elaborate alibi in order to cover up his deed? Or is it absolutely not humanely possible to make such a drive in the amount of time he had? You be the judge.
