Some cases were closed. Others were just buried.

True Crime Coldblood is the podcast that digs into the cases law enforcement left behind — cold cases, unsolved murders, and criminal investigations that never made it to a courtroom. Every episode pulls from court documents, police records, and firsthand reporting to reconstruct what really happened, and why the system failed to find answers.

This isn't true crime as entertainment. It's true crime as accountability. Host Seth approaches each real crime case with the methodology of an investigative journalist — no speculation dressed up as fact, no dramatization for shock value. Just a clear, unflinching look at criminal investigation failures, overlooked evidence, and the people still waiting for justice.

Seth spent years studying criminal justice and has dedicated his work to amplifying cases that deserve a second look. His background gives him the analytical edge to break down complex forensic and procedural details without losing the human story at the center.

True Crime Coldblood is built for listeners who are done with surface-level storytelling. If you want real cases examined with depth and integrity — not just a retelling — this show was made for you.

New episodes drop everyday, running between 18 and 25 minutes. Long enough to go deep. Focused enough to keep you locked in.

    Jealousy at 16: the murder that Instagram celebrated
    Jun 8 2026
    Jealousy of a 16-Year-Old: The Murder That Instagram Celebrated: The Homicide of María Fernanda Chiclo

    Two days after killing an 18-year-old student, the murderer posted a photo on Instagram celebrating that she had slept very well. How did a 16-year-old girl plan and execute a crime out of obsession, get convicted, but never set foot in prison?

    In this episode, we explore how Karen Ñáñez, after years of documented harassment, sent a trap message from the stolen cell phone of the victim's boyfriend, lured her to a sawmill, and committed a homicide aggravated by premeditation. We examine the surveillance that captured the dragging of the body, the bag with scissors and a bloody knife found in a canal, and the question that haunts the family: why did the judicial system apply assisted freedom to such a premeditated crime?

    Victim: María Fernanda Chiclo Linardo
    Date: February 15, 2015
    Location: Seres, Santa Fe, Argentina
    Status: Sentenced to 13 years, assisted freedom without effective prison time

    - The trap message sent from Rodrigo Gómez's "lost" cell phone lured Mafer to the sawmill exactly where she was murdered.
    - Surveillance cameras captured Karen dragging the body while Mafer lay asphyxiated by barbed wire that fractured her trachea.
    - Karen posted on Instagram celebrating having slept well the night of the murder, 48 hours after committing the crime.
    - Although sentenced to 13 years for aggravated homicide with premeditation, she never set foot in a prison; she changed cities, names on social media, and tried to continue her life.

  • Eighteen Years of Lies: The Natalie Holloway Case

    Eighteen Years of Lies: The Natalie Holloway Case
    Jun 7 2026
    Eighteen years of lies: The Natalie Holloway case: The disappearance of a teenager in Aruba and the killer who confessed publicly four times without going to prison.

    On the morning of May 30, 2005, Natalie Holloway, a 17-year-old honor student from Alabama, disappeared after getting into a car in Aruba. Joran van der Sloot, the young man who was with her, would confess multiple contradictory versions over the years on television, hidden cameras, and public interviews. Each confession was different; none led him to prison. Exactly five years later, on May 30, 2010, Joran murdered Stephany Flores in Peru. Only then did justice catch up with him.

    In this episode, we explore the four false confessions documented between 2007 and 2010, the contradictions between the hotel lobby's account and the security cameras that never recorded her, and how a pattern of criminal homicide took eighteen years to end up in a U. S. court. Natalie’s body was never found, but the truth about what happened that night finally came to light in 2023.

    Victim: Natalie Holloway
    Date: May 30, 2005
    Location: Aruba (disappearance); Lima, Peru (second crime)
    Status: Case resolved criminally; body not recovered

    - Joran van der Sloot publicly confessed to four distinct versions between 2008 and 2010 without being convicted of Natalie’s crime.
    - The security cameras at the Holiday Inn never recorded Natalie entering the lobby, disproving the main suspect's first version from the start.
    - Exactly five years after Natalie’s disappearance, Joran murdered Stephany Flores in Peru, a pattern suggesting predatory, non-accidental violence.
    - In 2023, Joran was sentenced to an additional 20 years in the United States for extorting the Holloway family and homicide, following documented transfers of $25,000.

  • The Beaumonts: Disappearance in Broad Daylight

    The Beaumonts: Disappearance in Broad Daylight
    Jun 6 2026
    The Beaumonts: Disappearance in Broad Daylight: The Mystery of Three Missing Children at Glenelg Beach

    Three children board a bus to the beach on January 26, 1966, the busiest holiday in Australia. They never get off. Surrounded by witnesses, they vanish without a trace for nearly six decades, leaving a question that Australia still cannot answer: how does an entire family disappear from a crowded beach?

    In this episode, we explore the conflicting testimonies about an athletic blonde man playing with the children, the unknown origin pound note found at Wenzel's bakery, and the false leads that turned the investigation into a forensic chaos. Dozens of suspects, from Derek Percy to Harry Phipps, have been investigated without certainty, while high-profile excavations have never found answers.

    Victims: Arna, Jane, and Grant Beaumont
    Date: January 26, 1966
    Location: Glenelg Beach, Adelaide, South Australia
    Status: Open case, one million dollar reward active

    - An Australian pound note found in the bakery suggests money from an external source, not the one assigned by Nancy.
    - Multiple independent witnesses describe the same athletic blonde man, 30-35 years old, but none of the suspects fit the age chronologically.
    - The diary of Alan Munro's son describes blood in his car and three bodies in the trunk, but no conclusive physical evidence was ever found.
    - The letters from the "guardian" in 1968 were discredited in 1992 as a teenager's hoax, but they contaminated the investigation for 24 years.
