January 7th, 2007, a train engineer driving by the train tracks in East Knoxville, TN, found the still smoldering human remains of 23 year old Christopher Newsom. The young man had met a horrific and brutal end. Two days later, Knoxville PD would receive a tip that a group of criminals are hiding out in a rundown house on Chipman Street, just blocks away from where Newsom’s body was discovered. In that house, in a tall trash can in the corner of a filthy kitchen, Chris Newsom’s 21 year old girlfriend, Channon Christian’s body was discovered. The couple had met the most grizzly end I have ever encountered as a true crime researcher.

If you know anything about this case, you know that it is one of the most horrific out there. That said, Trigger Warning! Please listen with caution.

However, what sticks more so than the heinous details of what these two wonderful young adults endured, is the love that their families have for them. So although this is going to be a tough case to get through, we have to say that both the Newsom and Christian families are so very inspiring and I encourage you to stick around until the end to hear more about them and all they do to keep their children’s memory alive.

So without further ado, let’s get into the case of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.

Welcome to our third installment of The Prison Series!

In our last installment of this series covering the dark history of prisons, Patrick talked to us about Eastern State Penn in Philadelphia. Well little did Patrick know…Eastern State Penn has an evil little sister called Holmesburg Prison.

This Philadelphia prison has a VERY dark and sinister past riddled with human experimentation and unspeakable torture.  In fact, if you were to listen to this episode without context, you would think this mayhem occurred in Nazi Germany during WW2.

So today we will be talking about decades worth of human experimentation and unfathomable torture that occurred within the walls of Holmesburg Prison. Join us and make sure to let us know your thoughts on the insanity that occurred right under our noses.

July 13th, 1966, Richard Speck slithered his way into a Chicago townhouse that served as a dormitory for student nurses. On this night, Richard would kill 8 young women, leading them 1 by 1, as Richard would later say, like “lambs to the slaughter”.  We know the details of this horrific night because there was someone at the crime scene who witnessed the horror he inflicted firsthand. A survivor. A young woman who would’ve been Speck’s 9th victim, but instead she would play a key role in making sure this vile, murderous man would never kill again by identifying him, right down to the memorable tattoo etched into his forearm that read “Born to Raise Hell”. And raise hell, he did! So today my friends, we are taking a deep look into what shaped notorious mass murderer Richard Speck and the events that transpired in his life leading up to that bloody night.
