83: Three Bad Broads

Ocey Snead married her first cousin but that isn't even the weirdest thing that happens in her life. She is raised by her mother and two aunts that dress in mourning garb and chant prayers around people that appear to make them bend to their will. Unfortunately for Ocey, the greed of her relatives ends up bringing her to her death.

82: The Andre Daigle Case

Andre was a tall dark drink of water and had his whole life ahead of him at 27 years old. He was kind hearted and helpful, something that would ultimately lead to his death all at the hands of three individuals that thought if they could prove themselves capable of murder then they could take on the world. It is possible his case might never have been solved if Andre's sister had not enlisted the help of Psychic Rosemarie Kerr, the first ever Psychic to testify at a murder trial.

81: The Murder of Julie Popovich

Julie Popovich was a 20 year old aspiring model before she disappeared from a bar in Ohio on the early morning hours of August 12, 2005. Her body was found by county workers nearly a month after her death....and three weeks after a medium named Kristy Robinette said that Julie's spirit came to her and told her to draw a map to the location of her body. The man convicted of her murder has exhausted his appeals and although the evidence is stacked against him, he maintains his innocence.

78: The Curse of Leonarda

This case couldn’t be more fitting for our Halloween special. It really has it all, and probably not in a good way. We are discussing the tragic true  case of Leonarda Ciancuilli. Born out of hate, and a victim of extreme trauma herself-Leonarda’s life was full of pain and tragedy and as a result she becomes obsessed with various forms of the occult, Wicca and other alternative spiritual practices and the outcome is shocking.

This week we discuss the very horrific TRUE crime story involving the murder of the Defoe family in November of 1974.
