In order to tell true crime stories on this podcast, information is gathered from various sources which sometimes includes, news articles, newspaper archives, blogs, social media, tv productions, police reports, court records, books, magazine articles, direct interviews, and more. I recognize that often, someone before me put in a lot of time and effort to gather the information that I draw from to help tell these stories. I want to thank those individuals for their hard work.

Remember, listening to this show doesn’t make you a murderer, it just means you’re murder ...ish.
