"What Murdahhhh??" - John Gotti May 22, 2025

Show notes

On this episode of Wife of Crime I am telling Russ all about the rise and fall of the most well known mafia boss of our generation, John Gotti. I also tell you guys about what got me so interested in the mafia and why they are some of my favorite cases to research! John Gotti's story is full of drama. He was all over the media in the 80s and 90s and he absolutely loved the attention. The media dubbed him "The Dapper Don", he was a cold blooded killer in a $2000 suit. Unfortunately, like most megalomaniacs the fall from the top comes swift and hard. In a world that prides itself on loyalty John Gotti's disloyalty to his closest ally would lead to his own undoing as well as the fall of the entire Gambino crime family. Moral of the story... "The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies" -William Shakespeare

A Slow Burn [PART 1] - Jim Jones and The Peoples Temple Apr 18, 2025

Show notes

On this episode of Wife of Crime I am telling Russ all about the diabolical cult leader Reverend Jim Jones and his church The Peoples Temple. Most people have heard the expression "Don't drink the kool aid..." but not everyone knows where this warning actually stemmed from. Jim Jones started his church with a mission to help Black Americans at a time when racial tensions were at an all time high. He preached a socialist message and in the early years did many good things for the poor and homeless as well. But as time passed something sinister was growing inside of him. The power he held went unchecked and that power became a hell of a drug... In Part 1 we discuss Jim's childhood and the early years of his church. You may find yourself asking... can someone who does evil things also have good in them??

An Epic Fail - Josiah Sutton Feb 26, 2025

Show notes

On this episode of Wife of Crime I'm telling Russ the insane case of Josiah Sutton. As humans we have been conditioned to automatically believe someone who is considered an "expert" in their field. But this case proves that unfortunately we can't always trust the experts even when it comes to something as strong as DNA evidence! Moral of this story... never stop fighting to prove what's right even when the experts say you're wrong!
