Today, we are sharing part one of a two-part series from the award-winning true crime podcast RedHanded, hosted by Suruthi Bala and Hannah Maguire. RedHanded is the UK's #1 True Crime podcast, covering everything from high-profile murders and cults to con artists and cultural catastrophes, always asking not just what happened, but why.

In part one, Suruthi and Hannah dive into the case of Kouri Richins, a Utah mother who published a children's book about grief after her husband Eric died in what was ruled an accidental overdose. Just a month after appearing on local TV to promote it, Kouri was arrested and charged with murdering Eric herself. Was she a grieving wife trying to rebuild her family's life, or a Black Widow who plotted to poison her husband for his money? Head over to RedHanded to catch part two, where Hannah and Suruthi pull apart the trial and discuss how Kouri unwittingly destroyed her own defence while trying to outwit the prosecution.

Hey everyone! As a bonus episode, I’d like to introduce you to a podcast I’ve come to really enjoy - True Crime Unwind.  This episode has some similarities to the Mackenzie Shirilla case from The Crash on Netflix and a case close to host Mercedes.  So I thought this was a great introduction to their show.  Enjoy!

Episode 59: Jeff McQueen, Dante Crump, Kaireem Meeks, and Jonté Clark - Saugerties, NY

Before there was Mackenzie Shirilla, there was Meredith McSpirit

Episode Summary

In August 2015, Jeff McQueen, Dante Crump, Kaireem Meeks Jr., and Jonté Clark were heading home from work at the Saugerties HITS Horse Show when tragedy struck. The car they were riding in left the roadway, traveled down a private dirt road, plunged down a 110-foot embankment, struck a house, and came to rest upside down. All four young men were killed. The driver, 19-year-old Meredith McSpirit, survived.

What followed was a years-long controversy filled with conflicting statements, questions about possible impairment, rumors, lawsuits, and a grand jury decision that left many family members and community members outraged. Investigators found no evidence of mechanical failure and ultimately cleared McSpirit of criminal wrongdoing, but for many, that decision only created more questions than answers.

Because before there was Mackenzie Shirilla, there was Meredith McSpirit.
