Welcome back to Between the Crimes!

Today's episode had a few technical difficulties with our microphones. We're still learning this whole recording process, so please bear with us while we get these kinks ironed out. Thank you all so much for your patience with us while we learn and work to improve this show!

Welcome back to Between the Crimes! After a short (maybe long...) hiatus we bring you: Episode Seventeen. Celia's fiancé, Jason, joins us again today due to the craziness of COVID-19. Don't worry though, Jenna will be back again for Episode 18!

We wanted to thank Ashley Flowers at CrimeJunkie for giving us the idea for the Yuba County 5 case for this episode. Hopefully, we did it justice as well. Please click here to check out their podcast episode featuring this story!

*WARNING: VERY GRAPHIC EPISODE*

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

What better day to release a new episode of Between the Crimes! Just in time for you all to settle down, spend time with family & friends, and get ready for a nice warm meal.

Interestingly enough, we have a very special episode for you today. Brace yourself, this is one of the most graphic and disgusting true crime stories we have ever shared here on this podcast. The faint of heart should not listen to this episode, particularly part two -- and the squeamish should absolutely not listen to this episode before Thanksgiving dinner.

Consider yourself warned...

Join us first for the story of Skylar Neese. She was a 16-year-old girl whose life was brutally cut short by those she trusted most. Personal thank you to the creators and staff of NBC's Dateline for providing us, yet again, with phenomenal information for a case.

Then, hear the graphic and violet story of Issei Sagawa -- the man who got away with a brutal, cannibalistic crime.

Happy holidays!

Welcome back for yet another episode of Between the Crimes.

This week, Celia's story was a tough one to research. The story of Ursula Herrmann comes from Germany back in 1981. This is an unsolved mystery that might frustrate you as much as us. We are extremely grateful for an article written by Xan Rice. We would not have been able to complete this episode without it.

Jenna also has an unsolved mystery for you; she tells the story of Phoebe Handsjuk, a young woman who "fell" down a garbage chute in an apartment building. Did she fall, or was she put in? Shout out to CrimeJunkie for producing an amazing podcast episode about this case!

Welcome back to Between the Crimes for another set of true crime stories! We appreciate our listeners being patient with us while we get the hang of this whole podcast, and we want to thank each and every listener for joining us.

You guys all mean the world to us.

Welcome back!

In today's episode, Jenna & Celia are live again because...podcasting to a blank recording is really, really hard. You can always join us on Podbean for our live episodes. These are typically on Fridays and Saturdays!

Celia tells the mysterious story of the disappearance of Amy Fitzpatrick. This was a very popular case in Europe, and to this day many people still question what exactly happened to her. Brace yourself for the twists and turns of this strange case.

The story of Meghan Landowski is told by Jenna. This is another case that you need to buckle up for. While the case seems simple from the outside, police investigated name after name in order to find Meghan's murderer.

Update: We have updated the audio file of this episode. We are sorry for the loudness of the previous one. Hopefully this update fixes that!
