Episode 199: Roundtable: The Perfect Neighbor

In this episode, we have a chatty roundtable and debrief about the hit Netflix documentary “The Perfect Neighbor” in which Ajike “AJ” Owens is shot and killed by her neighbor Susan Lorincz through a closed door. After more than a year of tension between the two, and several calls made by Susan to 9-1-1 over AJ’s and other children playing near her home, the tension reached a point of no return when AJ was shot outside Susan’s home. We highly recommend watching the documentary prior to listening to this episode!

She moved to America at 18 when she married an American man, but she was divorced and working as a model and sex worker when she met 56 year old Bill Nelson when she was 22. The couple had a seemingly happy relationship until Thanksgiving in November of 1991, the last time any of Bill’s family would ever hear from him.

Episode 197: Teresita Basa: The Voice from Beyond

In February 1977, the 15th floor of an apartment building on the north side of Chicago filled with smoke. Neighbors called for help and firefighters arrived to the scene, where they found the smoke coming from a single apartment. Once inside, they found a mattress in flames. Once the flames were extinguished, they learned it wasn’t the scene of just an arson, but a homicide. Teresita Basa’s body was found in her apartment, and the fire had destroyed their hopes for evidence. In August of that year, Dr. Jose Chua and his wife Remy claimed to have a lead in the murder; further, they claimed the information came from Teresita herself. Her spirit, that is. In this episode, we discuss how Teresita’s murder was solved. Do you believe she aided in her own murder investigation?

Episode 190: The Disappearance of Nicholas Barclay (Part 2)

When DNA tests confirmed that not-so-Nicholas was, in fact, not Nicholas at all, they also confirmed his identity- Frederic Bourdin; a 23 year old French conman. Frederic, also known as The Chameleon, was a serial impostor who created more than 500 identities before he made his way to Texas to live as 16 year old Nicholas. With Frederic’s cover blown, the question remained- what happened to Nicholas Barclay? While there is lots of speculation as to possible players in his disappearance, Nicholas’ disappearance remains unsolved to this day.
