    (18:00) - Wade Wilson

    In October 2019, Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz each made innocent choices that would lead to the end of their lives.

    Kristine and a friend, Stephanie, went to a bar to listen to live music. At the venue, they met Wade Wilson. Stephanie described Wade as ‘friendly and charming.’ Kristine and Wade went back to Kristine’s where Wade strangled Kristine in her bed. He then stole her vehicle and fled the scene.

    Later that day, while driving the stolen car, Wade approached Diane who was walking to work. He asked her for directions and he enticed her into the vehicle. He then beat and strangled Diane before pushing her out of the car and running her over until she looked like ‘spaghetti.’

    Wade is now facing the death penalty for the murders and is due to be sentenced.

    In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss Wade Wilson, known as the Cape Coral Strangler or the Deadpool Killer.

    (13:07) - The Cheshire Murders

    In July 2007, Jennifer Hawke-Petit and her 11-year-old daughter Michaela went to the grocery store to buy ingredients for a recipe Michaela wanted to make. There, they would cross paths with a man named Joshua Komisarjevsky who would follow them home to plan his next home invasion.

    That night, Joshua and his accomplice Hayes broke into the family's home and tortured them for hours. In the morning, they forced Jennifer to the bank to withdraw $15,000. Before leaving the bank, Jennifer was able to alert the teller who immediately called 911.

    Things came crumbling down when Joshua and Hayes realized Dr. William Petit escaped and crawled to a neighbor's home looking for help, despite his severe injuries. The men panicked and used gasoline to light the home ablaze while police set up a perimeter.

    Jennifer, Michaela and 17-year-old Hayley were all killed inside. Dr. William Petit was the lone survivor of the attack.

    In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss three cases of Sinister Siblings.

    • In May 2024, Angela Gosser killed her husband Larry and her sister Jennifer Wilson in Kentucky. She also attempted to kill her brother Darryl before taking her own life. The motive for these murders is still unclear.
    • Also in May 2024, Bethany Israel went to dinner at her brother Jack’s home. Bethany was in her second trimester of pregnancy. Family became concerned when Bethany did not return home. Police were called and they found pieces of Bethany’s body on the front porch of neighboring houses. It is believed Jack killed her because he thought she was ‘no longer innocent.’
    • Connor Young and his sister Amber had a tough start to life. They were placed in foster care and Amber endured sexual abuse. In 2021, the two siblings were seen on CCTV leaving a property. Only Connor returned. Amber’s body was found shortly after. Connor would be arrested, but not before writing this post on social media: “Amber, you will fly high for the rest of time. We will all miss you. Especially me. I love you. GBFN (goodbye for now) X.”

    (12:00) - Rex Heuermann

    In June 2024, alleged Long Island Serial killer, Rex Heuermann, was charged with the murders of Jessica Taylor and Sandra Castilla, bringing the total of his alleged victims to six.

    Police announced recently that over 350 devices had been seized from Rex’s home. A document was found on a hard drive and it is believed that is where Rex mapped out plans for his kills. Rex allegedly made notes such as :
    • Remove head and hands
    • Remove marks from tourture
    • Remove ID marks – tattoos
    He also wrote down points he wanted to remember for his next kills:
    • Get sleep before hunt, too tired creats problems
    • Use hevey rope for neck- light rope broke under stress of being tightend
    • More sleep and noise control – more play time
    (Please note all spelling errors are Rex’s own).

    We also discuss the recent "press conference" held by attorney John Ray where he throws around some insane accusations about Rex's daughter Victoria.

    • (12:24) - Shanda Sharer
    In 1992, 12-year-old Shanda Sharer was finding her way growing up in Indiana. She dealt with bullying at school that would eventually escalate into one the most heinous murders in the state.

    In January 1992, four girls between the ages of 15-17 decided "to teach Shanda a lesson." One of the girls, Melinda Loveless, was jealous of Shanda's new relationship.

    The girls went to Shanda’s home late at night and convinced her to leave with them. Over the next several hours, they would torture, sexually assault and beat Shanda to the brink of death before setting her on fire with gasoline. They left her to die on the side of a road.

    After the murder, the girls went to McDonald's and giggled because their breakfast sausages reminded them of Shanda's burnt body.

    In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the horrific torture and murder of 12 year-old Shanda Sharer.

  • A game, a note, and a fall | The Death of Rey Rivera
    Jun 6 2024

    • (6:40) - Chad Daybell update
    • (8:27) - Rey Rivera
    In the early months of 2006, Rey Rivera’s wife Alison said he seemed stressed and paranoid but he wouldn't elaborate on what was bothering him.

    On two nights in May 2006, the alarm in the couple’s home went off in the early morning hours. Alison said Rey seemed terrified, even though police suggested a squirrel triggered the alarm.

    Alison left on a business trip that month and a friend of hers, Claudia was staying at their home. Claudia said Rey got a phone call and she heard him yell ‘Oh shit!’ He ran out of the house and was never seen alive again.

    When Alison couldn't get in touch with Rey, she cut her business trip short. Rey’s body was found in the conference room of the Belvedere Hotel on May 24, 2006.

    The circumstances surrounding his death have been debated online for many years. Did Rey take his own life or was there something else going on?

    A mysterious note was found taped to Rey’s computer after his death and we run through the contents of the note in this episode.

  • The Mysterious Death of Noah Presgrove (Full Release from Patreon)
    Jun 4 2024
    Check out our Patreon for more bonus episodes! This episode was originally a Patreon bonus episode.

    Blog with current updates

    We have had so many messages asking us to look into the mysterious death of Oklahoma teen Noah Presgrove.

    As some background info: Noah and around 40 other teens had been partying for 3-4 days.Around 3am on September 4, 2023, Noah was involved in an ATV wreck that he walked away from. He went back to the party and was involved in some type of argument or disagreement. It was said that Noah walked away from the party.

    Just before 6am on September 4, Noah’s naked body was found on the side of a highway. He was only wearing mismatched shoes.Noah’s cause of death has been confirmed as blunt force injuries and the manner of death remains undetermined.

    Police have confirmed they do not believe Noah’s death was the result of a hit-and-run.

    How did Noah die? Could other teens be covering up what really happened? Or was his death a true accident?

    ** NOTE - this episode is from mid-May and there is a bit more info available currently than there was then, but not much. For example, we now know the party was not at Noah's best friend's house but a girl's house he was friends with **

    • (16:25) - Sugar Baby Murders
    In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss two cases of young women who were murdered by their ‘sugar daddies’.

    Sugar dating is a pseudo-romantic relationship between an older wealthy person and a younger, usually significantly poorer, person. Many sugar babies are college/university students who are looking for a way to pay off their debt.

    Mackenzie Lueck met Ayoola Ajayi online in 2019. The two planned to meet up after her flight home for her grandmother's funeral. But, Ayoola had ulterior motives and planned to murder her. When Mackenzie got to his home, he tied her up and strangled her. Ayoola then attempted to burn Mackenzie’s remains and belongings in his backyard, in full view of his AirBnB renter and neighbors.

    Liliya (Lily) Guyvoronsky (20) had been dating Bothell City Council member James McNeal (58) for months. James recently left his wife and three children to be with her. Lily detailed their relationship in her diary and in messages to her friends. 'He is really controlling and I can tell he thinks I'm stupid because I am young,' she wrote. In April 2024, the two got into an argument and James allegedly killed Lily. James called his attorney to the scene who called 911 to report the murder. James is currently in jail awaiting trial, scheduled for July.
