This week on Love Kills x Melanin Mayhem, it’s ugly, y’all. I can't even dress it up for you. I'm bringing you the story of a love triangle between a broke-down, ain’t-shit 21-year-old predator with a jealous ride-or-die dumb girlfriend, and a pregnant 14-year-old girl caught in the middle.

One day in Richmond, all that toxic mess turned into a bloodbath — and got everybody paying the price.

This ain’t just a crime of passion, it’s a coward with a Glock making a bad situation worse. You’ll hear how one man’s fuckery almost wiped out an entire family.

Don’t expect pretty. This one’s messy, ratchet, and cold blooded.

For years, a staggering number of Black women turned up dead in Bridgeport, CT. They died a horrific death- raped, strangled, stabbed, even burned. The streets whispered about a serial killer on the loose, but nobody knew who he was.

Our mayhem maker on the surface was just another working man, blending into the fabric of the neighborhood like he belonged. But in reality, he was hiding evilness in plain sight.

When police turned up the heat, he flew south to avoid detection, but his sick twisted ways followed him to Georgia. Different states. Same pattern. More bodies.

It would take years, a mandatory cheek swab, and a backlog of ignored evidence before investigators finally connected the dots. And what they uncovered was worse than anyone expected.

This week I'm bringing you the chilling story of the man who came to be known as the East End Killer —Mr. Emanuel L. Webb.

This week’s Melanin Mayhem maker turned an ordinary commute into a nightmare. Picture it, a crowded train, rush-hour passengers just trying to get home, and in a matter of minutes— bullets start flying. The aftermath? Chaos and tragedy that stunned New York and the nation.

But the mayhem didn’t end there. What followed in the courtroom was a spectacle unlike anything the justice system had ever seen—complete with shocking testimony, conspiracy-laced rants, and a defendant determined to represent himself no matter how outrageous it became.

Join me as we peel back the layers of one of the most underreported, diabolical and infamous cases in black true crime history and see how one train ride spiraled into horror at the hands of the Long Island Rail Road Killer Mr. Colin Ferguson.

The Virgos have linked up, and y’all already know that means trouble. In this special collaboration, I’m joined by Tiffany from Melanin Mysteries and Brittany from A Sip of Redrum to bring you the Side Piece Trilogy—three twisted tales of when love triangles explode.

We’re talking passion, betrayal, and the deadly fallout of being “the other one.” Because when 1 + 1 = 3, somebody always gets cut out of the equation.

Chuck E. Cheese is supposed to be all about kids running around on a sugar high, eating nasty pizza, and parents trying to survive the chaos. But in Aurora, Colorado, one night in ’93 turned into anything but fun.

See what happened when a job went left, and a disgruntled employee decided not to do the right thing. His anger didn’t just stop at a pink slip. It came back with a gun. And what should’ve been another night of flashing lights and arcade tickets turned into one of the deadliest acts of workplace violence the city had ever seen.

This week's Melanin Mayhem maker is Nathan Dunlap and this ain’t just a story about a mass shooting—it’s a story about how fast resentment can turn deadly and how any workplace can become a battlefield.

Today’s cautionary tale is straight outta Virginia, where one man’s madness ripped through not one, not two, but three families. Cola Beale wasn’t just your run-of-the-mill narcissist—he was a gaslighting, smooth-talking storm who turned deadly on the very people he claimed to love. The boldness of his crimes will leave you shaking your head, because this wasn’t no secret rage—it was audacity on full display. And in true Love Kills fashion, anybody can get their water turned off - permanently. Buckle up, Noir Nation, for Cola Beale’s weeklong spree of crazy, carnage, and cold-blooded mayhem.

I don’t usually cover gang shenanigans, mostly because I like my edges intact. But today I got some vintage tea on a wild story about one of Chicago's most vicious gang- the Royal Family, where “no witnesses, no mercy” wasn’t a motto; it was protocol.

This story has everything- murder, drugs, intimidation and hitmen for hire. But the real gangster shit didn't happen in the streets, it went down at the courthouse.

Come join me for the tale of Roger Lee Collins, William Bracy and Murray Hooper and the southside mayhem that followed.Go down the rabbit hole: (4) Chicago Gangs Folks Vs People Vs Renegade | The Royal Family (New Breed Black Gangster) Gang History | Facebook
