    South African Woman Sold Daughter for Drugs | Racquel Kelly Smith
    Jun 18 2025
    She was just six years old when she disappeared without a trace from her home in Saldanha Bay, South Africa.

    What followed? Blood-stained clothes. A mother’s shifting story. And a courtroom packed with 30 witnesses.


    And still… no trace of Joshlin Smith.

    Today, we’re telling you the case of Racquel Kelly Smith—a case that ended in court justice… but no answers about where Joshlin is.

    Michael Shaver Disappeared Without a Trace, His Wife Blamed Their Daughter | Laurie Shaver
    Jun 16 2025
    Michael Shaver vanished in 2015 without a trace. No calls. No texts. No goodbye. His wife said he’d left her and didn’t want to be found.

    But then… a concrete firepit.

    A single bullet.

    And years of digital manipulation.

    How does a devoted Disney World monorail technician go from missing to murdered—buried in his own backyard while his wife starts a new life steps away from his grave?

    In today’s episode, we dig into the years-long deception, the twisted cover-up, and the stunning trial that finally revealed what really happened to Michael Paul Shaver.

    Self-Described Sociopath Brutally Stabs Both Parents | Christina Anne Adams
    Jun 13 2025
    A 74-year-old father called 911 with his last words:

    “Christina with a knife… my wife’s been attacked too… I’m fading fast.”

    On September 16, 2022, in Leeward Air Ranch, Florida, Richard Langer and his wife Sally were brutally stabbed inside their own home.

    Inside the house, it’s a bloodbath.

    One parent clings to life. The other won’t survive.

    And the person responsible? Someone they raised, Christina Anne Adams.

    This is the story of a family shattered from the inside out.

  • Father Stabs Daughter, Claims it was a Game | Simon Vickers Case Update

    Father Stabs Daughter, Claims it was a Game | Simon Vickers Case Update
    Jun 12 2025
    A father claimed it was just a tragic accident—said he threw a knife instead of a spatula during a “play fight” with his daughter.

    But 14-year-old Scarlett Vickers was dead from a stab wound straight to the heart.

    Her father, Simon Vickers, was sentenced to life in prison with a 15-year minimum. Now the Court of Appeal has ruled on whether that sentence was too lenient.

    This is your bonus update on the case of Simon and Scarlett Vickers.

    (Side note: I listened to the initial case and heard that I accidentally once called Scarlett - Simone. Apologies for that.)

    FBI Mom Beaten to Death Beside Her Baby | Nicholas Myklebust
    Jun 11 2025
    A 911 call from a Denver townhome led police to a devastating scene—Seorin Kim, a forensic accountant with the FBI, was bleeding on the floor. Her newborn daughter, Lesley, was found unresponsive nearby.

    Her husband, Nicholas Myklebust, said it was a tragic accident. But nothing about that morning made sense.

    The Killer Clown Case: How Marlene Warren Was Murdered at Her Front Door | Sheila Keen
    Jun 9 2025
    Marlene Warren answered the door of her upscale Wellington, Florida home and smiled.
    Flowers. Balloons and a clown.

    Seconds later, the 40-year-old mother was shot in the face in front of her son—and it would take nearly 30 years to name the killer.

    Was it her husband, Micheal Warren, or his mistress, Sheila Keen?

    Florida Cop’s Wife Found Dead—But This Was No Suicide | Lt. Ellie Shea
    Jun 6 2025
    A former cop calls 911 and says he found his wife shot in their Orlando bedroom.

    The scene looked like suicide—until investigators uncovered deleted texts, planted messages, and a timeline that didn’t match up.

    Was Lt. Eloilda “Ellie” Shea murdered by the man (Anthony Shea) who once swore to protect her?

    She Left Her Baby Alone for a Hinge Date, Teen Starved in a Motel: Two Cases of Unthinkable Neglect
    Jun 4 2025
    Aston Starkey, 13, was found malnourished and unresponsive in a Birmingham motel. His mother, Serena Starkey, vanished before facing a murder charge.

    In Texas, 25-year-old Reese Louise Myers left her toddler alone—no diaper, no sitter—while she drove 150 miles for a Hinge date.

    Two children.

    Two states.

    Two cases of pure neglect.

    And no one stepped in until it was too late.
