From Jul 31, 2023



Tyler Deaton fought his homosexual urges through his teen years and into adulthood. He met Bethany at a prayer group in college and the two began dating. All the while Tyler was becoming deeper involved in Christian Fundalmentalism.  Years later, he took the role of leader in his prayer group, becoming a religious cult of sorts. He married Bethany in the hopes of saying goodbye to his homosexual desires forever. Dark and Twisted stories began to arise as Bethany ended up dead.  True crime quickie is from Portland, Oregon as a straight man is killed trying to defend his gay friend.

Last episode we looked at young men who were classified as drowning victims in Pennsylvania, this episode we explore other victims also found deceased in waterways in several different states. Is this the work of a domestic terrorist cell or were these 680 plus young men all with attributes that are very similiar to each other just careless drunks who accidentally fell in to bodies of water and drowned due to their inxtoxication?

Since 1997 over 300 young, educated, athletic men who've been out with friends at bars have disappeared only to be found days, weeks and even months later deceased in bodies of water. Three retired NYC detectives believe these are NOT accidental drownings as the law enforcement in each of these cases determined but rather many of these are homicides. Homicides implemented by a cell of killers located in different cities across the U.S. Sexual Identity is not relative to these cases, although some of the victims were gay. What is relative are that their stories are told. Welcome to a new season...Season 15! This is part one of the Smiley Face Killers...
