  • Case Number 96: Sarah Jo Pender, The Alleged Mastermind
    Jul 25 2024
    Within a two month period, Sarah went from being a young woman who created a promising future for herself to housing three unemployed criminals. Her new boyfriend, Richard Hull, had vouched for his friend, Andrew Cataldi and Andrew's girlfriend, Tricia Nordman. Then Sarah met the couple and she thought they were great! Unfortunately, Sarah quickly learned why some people do judge a book by it's cover. Within another two months of living together, life as she knew it was gone and all that was left was a defunct drug business and two bodies. Tune in as Elysia shares the many cringe worthy decisions Sarah made along the way and why a growing number of people (including the man who prosecuted her) believe she is innocent. Meanwhile, Savannah gives her best "babe" impression. Don't forget to leave us the weekly emoji for your Sunday shoutout! Find us on ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠Facebook!

  • Case Number 95: The Tragic Story of Eridania Rodriguez
    Jul 11 2024

    When 46 year old Eridania Rodriguez went missing in the middle of her evening cleaning shift, her family immediately knew something was very wrong. After a search, they reported her missing as they suspected foul play.


    By the next morning, most of New York City was talking about the cleaning woman who disappeared in the financial district. It took three official searches and one detective's keen eye for video surveillance to find Eridania and connect her death to a maintenance worker in the building named Joseph Pabon.


    Tune in as Elysia details the frantic 4 day search and poses the recently trending question "Would you choose to be alone with a man or a bear in the woods?" Meanwhile, Savannah yells that they should have listened to the smartest detectives the entire time.

  • Case Number 93: The Unbelievable Killing of Joel Kirkpatrick
    Jun 27 2024

    When 10 year old Joel Kirkpatrick was stabbed to death in the middle of the night at his mother's home, detectives were convinced she staged the scene. However, Julie Rea swore a masked intruder had committed the heinous act before grappling with her and making his getaway.

    Her story never changed and there wasn't strong physical evidence against her. So, no charges were pressed until 3 years later when a new prosecutor was assigned the case. Julie was convicted of killing her own son until an unbelievable string of events led to her exoneration.

    Tune in as Elysia details this tragic story of how some events impact lives in a way that can never be reversed. Meanwhile, Savannah sits on the edge of her seat questioning where it's all going.

  • Case Number 92: The Alleged Crimes of Candy Montgomery
    Jun 20 2024

The two went on to have an affair that likely made their marriages look spontaneous. It wasn't quite the boundless passion Candy had hoped for physically but they had grown quite close confiding in one another. Eventually, Allan realized he must end the affair if he hoped to save his marriage. Months after it ended Candy and Betty were alone when Betty ended up dead from 41 axe strikes. Tune in to hear Savannah recall Candy's account in all her dramatic glory and Elysia is traumatized by visuals of both the affair and Betty's murder.

  • Case Number 91: Marc Despain, A Deadly Conspiracy
    Jun 13 2024
    When Marc Despain arrived home after meeting his wife Michelle for a lunch date, he was gunned down in the couple's kitchen. The house had seemingly been ransacked but nothing of serious value taken. It didn't take detectives long to figure out this wasn't a burglary. It also didn't take long for the family to turn on each other. Michelle's Father, Carl, insisted that Marc's Father, Jack probably had something to do with it claiming that he had made threats toward the family. Michelle too claimed that Jack had a terrible temper and they had to distance themselves from him. Tune in as Elysia tells this tale of three Fathers whom all claimed to act out of love for their children. Meanwhile, Savannah attempts to take a break from googling the individuals in the case and instead spends her time theorizing what they look like.

  • Case Number 90: Dana Sue Gray, The Serial Shopaholic
    Jun 6 2024
    After a rocky childhood, Dana faced losing her Mother to cancer at the young age of 14. Despite getting kicked out by her Father and Stepmother at 16, Dana went on to graduate high school and attend college to pursue a career in nursing. Inspired by the nurses who took care of her Mother, she wanted to help others in such a time of need. Unfortunately, Dana's addictions caused her life to come crashing down and within months of losing her nursing job, she began taking lives instead of saving them. She targeted elderly women who lived alone mostly. She may have gotten away with it longer had it not been for one victim who survived. Dana made the mistake of attacking a woman who worked at an antique shop who was younger and stronger than the other victims. When detectives connected the crimes, it wasn't long before they identified her. Tune in as Savannah gives an insightful take on this tragic serial killer's life and Elysia is somehow both speechless and not surprised by Dana's audacity.
