  • 33: FedEx Driver Planned Her Abduction and Murder | Athena Strand
    Apr 28 2026
    Seven-year-old Athena Strand was supposed to be safe at home in December 2022, just days away from going back to live with her mom, when a delivery driver dropping off a Christmas present changed everything. At the time, authorities said she was abducted and likely killed within an hour, her body found miles away. But what’s come out since then tells a far more disturbing story. Newly revealed evidence and trial testimony suggest those final moments were not what anyone originally believed. And now, with the man responsible already pleading guilty, the trial has shifted to whether he will spend the rest of his life in prison or be sentenced to death….If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!

    Apr 14 2026
    After Netflix dropped Trust Me: The False Prophet, a chilling story is back in the spotlight, and it’s even more disturbing than you might remember.

As new details emerge, including guilty pleas, kidnappings, and the unraveling of his inner circle, the question becomes how far his influence really reached and how so many people became entangled in it. Revisit everything we uncovered before, now with major updates and a deeper look at the documentary that’s bringing this case back into the public eye….If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!

  • 30: Dumbest Teens Ever Laugh at Attempted Murder Charges | Isabelle Valdez & Lois Lippert
    Apr 7 2026
    In Seminole County, Florida, an anonymous tip set off an investigation that quickly escalated from a possible school threat into something far more disturbing. At the center of it all were 15-year-old Isabelle Valdez and her friend Lois Lippert, two teens investigators soon discovered were connected to a chilling plan already in motion. What made the case even more unsettling was a disturbing obsession tied to Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza, which appeared to shape the way Isabelle viewed everything. When Isabelle and Lois were confronted, their calm and detached reactions only deepened the unease. As surveillance footage and recorded conversations revealed more of their mindset, the story grew darker, raising questions that went far beyond what anyone expected when that first tip came in….If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!
