Griselda Blanco - aka Cocaine Queen, Cocaine Godmother, Cocaine Cowgirl, La Madrina (to name just a few) - didn't just break into the drug trade, she rebuilt it from the ground up with ruthless efficiency and creative brutality. By the time Miami was drowning in blow and blood in the 1980s, Griselda had already pioneered smuggling routes, invented new methods of moving product, and racked up a body count that would make a cartel boss blush. This is the story of the woman who turned Miami into a war zone, made billions in the process, and proved that when it comes to narco empires, the most dangerous player isn't always the one with the biggest balls...sometimes it's the one in stilettos.

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode is extremely disturbing and discusses the very difficult subjects of child sexual abuse, child homicide, necrophilia and cannibalism. Please listen with caution. Tsutomu Miyazaki, known as "The Otaku Murderer," murdered four young girls in Japan between 1988 and 1989. He didn't just kill them—he engaged in necrophilia, dismemberment, and cannibalism. Then he terrorized their families, sending letters and pieces of his victims through the mail. This episode explores how his social isolation and obsessive fantasies escalated into ritualized violence so disturbing it ignited a moral panic across Japan. This case forces us to confront the darkest edges of human depravity: obsession, control, and complete dehumanization. This is an extremely difficult case. Please listen with caution.

  • EP164: The Alaskan Avenger

Trigger warning: This episode discusses the very difficult subject of child sexual abuse. Please listen with caution. In 2016, Jason Vukovich decided the justice system wasn’t doing its job — so, he took over. Jason launched a violent, one-man campaign against convicted pedophiles in Alaska, attacking his targets with fists, hammers, and years of unresolved pain and anger. As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, Jason openly framed his actions as punishment the justice system failed to deliver. To supporters, he is a vigilante hero known as “The Alaskan Avenger.” To law enforcement, he is a dangerous criminal and serial attacker who belongs behind bars. To the public? A Rorschach test. This explosive case collides trauma, rage, and moral certainty - and leaves us with one brutal question: when justice fails and revenge feels necessary, who’s actually at fault?
