  • Did Lisa Donlon Murder Her Husband in Self-Defense?

    Did Lisa Donlon Murder Her Husband in Self-Defense?
    Jul 2 2025
    On the morning of October 7, 2010, Lisa Donlon dialed 911 and told the dispatcher she had just shot and killed her husband. When the police arrived at the twenty-foot by twenty-foot, one-room shed where Lisa lived with her husband, Jason, and their three young sons, they found Jason lying in bed on his stomach. Lisa had shot him once in the head and five times in the back. She claimed she’d killed him in self-defense while he slept. Her two youngest sons were present in the cabin when their mother murdered their father. Lisa’s body showed signs of abuse, and she told a horrific story about the torture she’d endured at the hands of her husband, Jason. Still, people asked the age-old question. Instead of killing Jason, why didn’t she take her children and leave? Sources Bottaro, Angelica. “How to recognize and end the cycle of abuse.” June 8, 2022. Verywell health.

    FTA: The Deadly Trooper
    Jun 18 2025
    Most of us like to believe we can trust the police, but not everyone goes into law enforcement for the greater good. Some enter the police academy because they crave power over others and what better job than policing offers this power? I believe most police officers are good, and a few are bullies. John Patrick Addis, though, was the worst kind of police officer. He was a monster with a badge. Sources Puitt, Glenn.

    The Strange and Tragic Lives and Deaths of Guy and Johnny Waterman
    Jun 4 2025

Denali in Alaska, Guy Waterman ascended a mountain ridge in New Hampshire in February 2000 and committed suicide by sitting in the snow in the bitter cold until he froze to death. The life stories of both Guy and Johnny Waterman exemplify the narrow line between passion and madness. Sources Brown, Chip. March 2003. The Last Cairn. Adventure. Brown, Chip.

I'm a true crime junkie and I really enjoyed these podcasts! I originally found Robin on a show I was watching called Cold Blooded Alaska and decided to look her up, I enjoy podcasts while I drive! I was not disappointed :)

Great True Crime Coverage!!!

I appreciate you telling the story, you did an accurate job in the telling. Your focus on what happened and why was the right focus. Your telling felt objective to me not blaming and emphasizing the positive at the end. The industry has changed and for the better. It was difficult to listen to now 39 years latter, I miss my brother now more than ever. He was gentle, smart, and determined he had a funny side to him. He along with all the A Boat men are missed, they are talked about in shared memories to this day. Their names are on memorials in Anacortes. And alive in a young man’s Facebook page about them. We have a bench near the beach where we played as kids to remember Jeff that is all I have except for the memories. This podcast does a service to remind us of the danger and pull of the sea. I disagree that going to sea then was all about the money it was also about the desire for being the best and living an alive life. Should you do a follow up episode please seek help on the pronunciation of names.
