True crime

An heiress to the Scripps newspaper fortune, Anne Scripps had a privileged upbringing. When her first marriage ended in divorce she quickly met and married a new man, a house painter named Scott Douglas who was nine years younger than Anne. All Anne wanted was the simple life of a suburban housewife, doting on her children and giving them the warmth and love that she didn’t receive in her own childhood. But her new marriage quickly turned into a nightmare, with a tragic outcome that would reverberate for years to come.Today's snack: Easy homemade biscuitsSubscribe on Patreon for early, ad-free access and a monthly bonus episode.Sources:https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5chme0https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3047747/Scripps-newspaper-heiress-24-saw-socialite-mother-hacked-death-claw-hammer-father-released-prison-drugs-telling-judge-lost-family-friends-pets-hope-future.htmlhttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6033219/Scripps-heiress-Tori-Scripps-Carmody-arrested-stealing-adoptive-moms-car.htmlhttps://nymag.com/news/features/63034/https://www.crimelibrary.org/notorious_murders/family/anne_scripps/1.htmlMangaliman, J.

Anne Scripps and Scott Douglas

Early on the morning of April 20th, 2012, Gerard Baden-Clay called to report his wife Allison missing. He said she had gone out for a walk and hadn’t returned. When the police showed up to take a report, they were immediately put on high alert because of two distinct scratches running down Gerard’s cheek, which he claimed to be the result of a shaving accident. Soon, the entire state of Queensland, Australia would be captivated by Allison’s story, with countless volunteers joining the search. As details of Gerard’s secret life, affairs, and business struggles emerged, suspicion quickly turned to him. But would there be enough evidence for justice to be served?Give to the Allison Baden-Clay FoundationSupport us on PatreonToday's snacks: Beignets and Aunt Sally's Creole Pralines

On February 16, 2022, 33-year-old Jared Bridegan was gunned down while his two-year-old daughter watched in horror from the backseat of their car. Jared and his ex-wife, Shanna Gardner, heiress to the Stampin’ Up fortune, had gone through a long and brutal custody battle but they had both recently remarried.

Shanna Gardner and Jared Bridegan

Shanti Cooper fell in love with David Tronnes after meeting in 2013 on Match.com. After a whirlwind romance, David and Shanti moved in together. First into a rented house and later into a beautiful, historic home in Orlando, Florida that David had purchased. A major home renovation ensued but countless delays resulted in the couple being displaced from their home for over 2 years.  An opportunity to appear on the show “Zombie House Flipping” surfaced. David saw this as a chance to finish their home renovation. But just as things were looking up for the couple, Shanti was found dead in their small apartment on April 24, 2018. David claimed a slip-and-fall accident must have caused her death but the crime scene told a different story. Support us on PatreonSources:https://www.hulu.com/watch/56ef16a6-2143-4cc2-b3de-a3dd4b3acf6bhttps://www.zillow.com/homes/218-E-Copeland-Dr-Orlando-FL-32806_rb/46266483_zpid/https://www.club-orlando.com/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY8yNACjNjQhttps://www.newspapers.com/image/478921987/?terms=david%20tronneshttps://www.newspapers.com/image/565070164/?match=2&terms;=david%20tronneshttps://www.newspapers.com/image/1013447585/?match=1&terms;=david%20tronneshttps://www.newspapers.com/image/619613413/?match=1&terms;=david%20tronneshttps://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/fake-crying-hubby-who-claimed-wife-drowned-in-bathtub-found-guilty-of-her-murder/ar-AA1iwrAu#https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/fake-crying-hubby-who-claimed-wife-drowned-in-bathtub-found-guilty-of-her-murder/ar-AA1iwrAu#https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2023/10/11/murder-trial-begins-for-david-tronnes-man-accused-of-strangling-his-wife-in-orlando/https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2023/10/18/testimony-continues-in-murder-trial-of-david-tronnes-man-accused-of-strangling-wife-in-delaney-park/https://www.wftv.com/news/local/police-man-arrested-in-wife-s-murder-near-delaney-park/823331348/https://www.wftv.com/news/local/orange-county/david-tronnes-ruled-competent-expected-face-new-lawsuit-wifes-death/6TEP44O3MBFGZDH77B6QG2FFGE/https://www.wftv.com/news/local/orange-county/police-defense-attorneys-man-accused-murdering-wife-should-face-charges-allegedly-removing-bloody-sheets-possible-weapon/XQQQNSSZUZCL7NEOTDSX6YLLME/https://www.newspapers.com/image/593409929/?terms=Shantihttps://www.courttv.com/news/fl-v-david-tronnes-bathtub-murder-trial/https://www.theblackberrycenter.com/late-onset-schizophrenia/
