  • Episode 44: Richard Matt and David Sweat

    Hello! For this week's episode, Kenna brings the story of Richard Matt and David Sweat's lives, crimes, and ESCAPE? These two men grew up in different places, but their childhoods were very similar. It's no surprise that they would both land in prison on murder charges, and they would eventually become cellmates. Welp, with the help of some unsuspecting people, the two men would lead law enforcement on a nearly month-long man hunt after escaping from prison. Join us as we talk about the men's lives, and the escape from Dannemora.

    It's a case..... FROM DOWN UNDER! This week, Kenna talks about perhaps Australia's most infamous woman, Katherine May Knight. Katherine's childhood was absolutely awful, filled with abuse, rage, loss, and inappropriate conversations left and right. Growing older, Katherine knew she was not going to be walked all over again.

  • The Mental Breakdown: Psychological Profiles

    Ever wonder what the FBI does while they are looking for a suspect at large? Some of the greatest FBI profilers get together and make a list of all the traits of a suspect, and they are pretty spot on most of the time. However, when the perpetrator is yet to be caught, or never gets caught, the psychological profile is all we have to study. Join us as Koelle talks through 3 infamous cases where identities remain unknown, and see if you can solve it!
