Hi! I changed hosting platforms and several of my older episodes were deleted so I will be working through audio remastering and re releasing them over the next few months.

This week we talk about the murders of the DeFeo family. Was this caused by a demon? Or was this done by the eldest child, Ronald DeFeo Jr.? Once George and Kathy Lutz moved into the house after the murders, they fled leaving everything behind 28 days later. Their story inspired what we know today as the Amityville Horror.

The Amityville Murders: Stories of Strange True Crime

By: Ana Benson

This week I was interviewed on the Touchy Subjects podcast about what draws women to true crime and how true crime content creators can be more ethical in their content creation.

Reasa Selph brought her son to the ER with the flu. They gave him fluids and sent him home. Two weeks later, his skin turned yellow, his body was failing, and the infection traced straight back to the IV they placed that day. The same hospital dismissed him... twice. By Christmas morning, he was being rushed to another facility, fighting for his life with sepsis. What came next wasn’t just a medical crisis - it was a cover-up, a lawsuit, and a mother’s refusal to stay quiet about the system that almost killed her child.

Reasa's story covers failures in patient safety and the lack of accountability in modern healthcare.

In 1969, Senator Ted Kennedy drove off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island, leaving 28-year-old Mary Jo Kopechne trapped in a submerged car. He passed several houses, swam across the channel, and waited ten hours before telling anyone. By the time help showed up, she was gone, and the spin was already in motion. What followed wasn’t justice. It was damage control.

In 1975, 15-year-old Martha Moxley was murdered in Belle Haven, Connecticut - a case later linked to the Kennedy family.

Martha was beaten to death with a golf club in her own backyard. The last person seen with her? The teenage son of one of the wealthiest families in Belle Haven—rich, connected, and untouchable. This should have been an easy case to solve, but from the moment Martha’s body was found, it was clear that only money and power would dictate what happened next.
