Bloody Angola: A Podcast by Jim Chapman

Between 1993 and 1995, a small rural hospital in Clinton, Indiana, experienced a horrifying spike in ICU deaths. The mortality rate tripled almost overnight, with elderly patients suddenly coding and dying at an alarming pace. Every victim had one thing in common: licensed practical nurse Orville Lynn Majors was present. Admired by colleagues and trusted by families, Orville Lynn Majors was the last person anyone would suspect. But a painstaking investigation revealed a terrifying pattern. He had been injecting vulnerable patients with lethal doses of potassium chloride and epinephrine, stopping their hearts within seconds. Ultimately convicted of six murders and suspected in more than 100 additional deaths, Majors was sentenced to 360 years in prison, where he died in 2017.

This is the terrifying tale of Orville Lynn Majors, infamously known as the “Angel of Death”

Rocky Ali Beamon—better known as the “Vigalante Killer.” Already serving a life sentence for the 2005 kidnapping, robbery, and brutal drowning murder of Deborah Lacey (carried out with his girlfriend Karen Wilkins to fuel a crack cocaine binge), Beamon wasn’t done killing.
Behind the walls of Florida state prisons, he became a self-appointed vigilante, hunting down convicted sex offenders with cold, calculated precision. In 2012, at Apalachee Correctional Institution, he stalked fellow inmate Bruce Hunsicker—a registered sex offender—before savagely stabbing and strangling him in the shower.
Five years later, at Santa Rosa Correctional Institution, he murdered his own cellmate, Nicholas Anderson, in a gruesome attack involving strangulation and a homemade shank. Beamon showed zero remorse. He openly boasted about his crimes, declared his hatred for “monsters,” and even begged judges to send him to death row—vowing he would keep killing if they didn’t. He ultimately received two death sentences on top of his life term.

On March 11, 2005, Brian Gene Nichols was sitting in a Fulton County Courthouse holding cell in Atlanta, Georgia, awaiting trial on SA charges. What happened next became one of the most shocking courthouse attacks in American history.

In a matter of minutes, Nichols overpowered his deputy escort, seized her weapon, and stormed the courtroom of Superior Court Judge Rowland Barnes. He murdered the judge and court reporter Julie Brandau in cold blood. As he fled the building, he gunned down Sheriff’s Deputy Hoyt Teasley. Hours later, during a desperate manhunt that shut down the city, Nichols killed a fourth victim—off-duty ICE Special Agent David Wilhelm—before carjacking his truck. A massive, 26-hour search gripped Atlanta. Then, in a quiet suburban apartment, Nichols took Ashley Smith hostage. What unfolded during their seven-hour ordeal would ultimately bring the rampage to an end in one of the most talked-about hostage encounters of the decade.

On July 20, 2012, a packed midnight screening of The Dark Knight Rises at the Century 16 theater in Aurora, Colorado, turned into one of the deadliest mass shootings in American history. Dressed in tactical gear and heavily armed, 24-year-old James Holmes known as the “Colorado Theatre Shooter” opened fire, killing 12 people and injuring 70 others in a matter of minutes.

Once a high-achieving neuroscience PhD student at the University of Colorado, Holmes had meticulously planned the attack for months—rigging his apartment with explosives, stockpiling weapons and ammunition, and even alerting authorities to his booby-trapped home before surrendering. What drove this brilliant but troubled young man to commit such unimaginable violence? In this episode, we examine Holmes’ background, his documented mental health struggles, the controversial insanity defense that played out in a high-profile trial, and the jury’s ultimate decision to reject it—convicting him on all 165 counts and sentencing him to 12 consecutive life sentences plus 3,318 years without parole.

“Clifton Bloomfield” AKA the “Breaking Bad Killer” was Born in Arizona in 1969 with a violent criminal past that landed him in prison as a teenager, Bloomfield was released in 2002 and reinvented himself in New Mexico as a roofer… and a movie extra. He walked the sets of the prison drama Felon and even auditioned during the early days of Breaking Bad. But behind the camera, this career criminal was quietly hunting.

Between 2005 and 2008, Bloomfield slaughtered five innocent people in their own homes: 37-year-old Carlos Esquibel, strangled after a chance encounter; 81-year-old retired schoolteacher Josephine Selvage, who suffered from Alzheimer’s; elderly couple Tak and Pung Yi, beaten to death during a home invasion; and newlywed Scott Pierce, shot dead in a botched contract killing gone horribly wrong — carried out with an accomplice while his bride hid in terror.

DNA finally connected the dots after his 2008 arrest. To dodge the death penalty, Bloomfield pleaded guilty to five counts of first-degree murder and more, receiving five life sentences plus 45 years. Years later he tried to walk it all back… and failed.
