Seven Deadly Sinners

  • Summary

  • Sinners are often people who believe they deserve every little thing they desire, and hurting others along the way…well that’s just road kill. On a small scale it’s scary, but on the scale these people have done it it’s down right evil. Preachers, church, your faith are your most trusted source of comfort…but what happens when that world is shattered… Season 1 of Seven Deadly Sinners took on the world of Televangelists and cultish child sexual predator, Warren Jeffs. Seasons 2 and 3 of Seven Deadly Sinners, we’re traveling to the depths of hell, expanding our realm and covering Preachers, Cult Leaders and Religious Organizations linked to horrific crimes...and some of these cases involve leaders who kidnap, rape and murder the ones who trust them the most. What if, after leading you in prayer, he lures to the bedroom. What it the same preacher who captures your heart, kidnaps your child. What if, the priest serving you communion used those same hands to dispose of a corpse. These Preachers committed heinous crimes - right under …your…. nose.. - with a bible next to their bed - and a cross around their neck. Rachael O’Brien is the host of Seven Deadly Sinners, and she guides you on this hellish journey of deception all under the guise of Faith.

  • 196: Franklin Scandal - Alisha Owens
    Apr 21 2024

    This is the unbelievable followup to the Franklin Scandal.

    Yes if you’re a long time listener you know I did about a 1000 part series back in 2021 on the Franklin scandal. It may have been only 7 eps but you get the point, I was obsessed with it. I wanted to connect the dots, I wanted to solved the unsolved.


    So when earlier this week, a victim of this scandal, perhaps the most well known one reached out to me and sent me the kindest message I may have ever received…..I cold called her immediately. Well immediately after sobbing bc it was a message that was so heart felt and also one I needed at the time as well.


    In addition, she has connected me to nick Bryant, the author and unbelievably dedicated and inspiriting journalist that worked on this Franklin scandal story for over a decade and who was also the person to publish the little black book in the Epstein case and who now, has a non profit with Alisha to get justice for child victims of trafficking. It is real, it’s incredibly important and they are doing the work so without further ado…I’d like to introduce my new friend Alisha Owens.

  • 195: Pride - WWII Sexpionage
    Apr 14 2024

    This is a story of women with grit, women who were brave and women who were sometimes, also seductive.

    This story was inspired by a new podcast out by Neil Strauss where he interviews an actual Russian female sex spy so I decided to look into this world further, the world of sexpionage and how brave and alluring female spies helped to change the course of the second world war.... And likely are still changing the course of politics today.

    In the stories I’ll tell you today, I start with the most famous of them all, the Kitty Salon, a brothel the Nazi’s took over in order to gain intelligence on other high ranking officials, enemies, frenemies, and beyond.

  • 194: Lust - Pastor Timothy Tillman
    Apr 7 2024

    The story of a man who almost got away with murder had it not been for the suspicions of his wife’s siblings.

    This is the story of preacher with secrets, a con-man and convicted murderer, Timothy Tillman, was it an accident or an actual murder? I’ll let you decide.

eye opening and honest

hadn't been able to put a name to this NIGHTMARE of a reality that has been unleashed by the misogynistic pos with no regard to the effects of this behavior on the living victims or even the ones who are only surviving through the loving family members now forced to carry on without them.

distracting

this was a tough one. personally, I found the narrator's tone, pitch. and speed very distracting and I stopped the podcast after a couple minutes.
