Around a month ago, I wrote about the case of a missing scientist in New Mexico. This week that case, and other similar cases have been making headlines.

There are reasons why people believe these cases might be linked, and we’ll get into those. However, we’ll also hear from an expert about why we shouldn’t jump to conclusions or get lost in conspiracy theories. But we’re actually starting this episode in Los Angeles, where Audacy station KNX News has been covering one particular murder case for months. It began with the report of human remains found in a Tesla last September. This week the owner of that Tesla, Billboard-charting musician David Burke, whose stage name is stylized as D-4-V-D, was charged with the murder of Celeste Rivas Hernandez.

Ruth DiRienzo-Whitehead: the Mother, the Monster - Part 2 Apr 03, 2024

No one wants to believe a mother could actually kill her own son; holding a belt tight around his neck and squeezing until he took his last breath.

She wanted to get back at her husband for letting her down. Could this really be true? Was Ruth DiRienzo-Whitehead the monster Montgomery District Attorneys made her out to be? Or, did she snap?
