  • Episode 13: Tina Watson

    Send me a text message! I do read them all! Include your phone number if you would like to correspond.

    Christina Mae Watson went on her honeymoon with her new husband Gabe to scuba dive the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. She had a heart condition but she got her diving certificate and joined her husband in smaller dives. This would be her first time diving in the open ocean. Two minutes after she got in the water with Gabe, Gabe came to the surface and asked for help retrieving Tina, she had lost consciousness and sank to the bottom of the ocean. She did not survive. Gabe was convicted of manslaughter because he had failed to rescue her however some people believe he actually was the one that caused her air supply to be cut off in the first place.

  • Episode 11: Andrew Cunanan

    Send me a text message! I do read them all! Include your phone number if you would like to correspond.

    In this terrible episode I talk about the spree killings of Andrew Cunanan. He is mostly known for killing the fashion designer Gianni Versace. Andrew had a desire to live a luxury lifestyle that seems he was never able to obtain. His motives for his killings are still unknown to this day. The FBI believes he was targeting gay men however there is no official motive. Check out the Netflix series on him called American Crime Story Season 2 as they go into this case and is just a great series in general. As always feel free to contact me at [email protected] or follow me on twitter @crimecastlepod.
